You need to read the section in the installation manual about the type and
creator file.  It sounds as if the extension on the file was one of those
which the NUPOP.TAC file defines to be an ascii extension.  In this case,
NUPop performs an Ascii conversion on the file contents during the
binhexing process, in order to handle the differences in end-of-line
between the Mac and the PC.

You can defeat this by deselecting options/preferences/messages/convert
EOL.
