*Now* I feel like we're getting somewhere! The TYPE command you suggested does indeed show the Mac filename. Unfortunately, my colleague on the other end of the line (using a term program called Quick Link II) can't find any options that allow him to turn MacBinary off *and* see (and, therefore, select for transfer) anything other than non-MacBinary files. I'm not sure that made sense, so let me try again: In Quick Link II's File menu, he selects Send File. That opens a dialog box from which he selects the file he wishes to send. It also contains a check box or radio button or something labelled "MacBinary." When that box is checked, all the files, including the graphics files, appear in the file list and can be selected. When the MacBinary box is *not* checked the only filename that appears in the list is that of an ASCII file he created. There doesn't appear to be any option that takes MacBinary files and sends them without the resource stuff. And we can't seem to find an option in PhotoShop to allow us to create non-MacBinary files. Jerry Thompson mentioned a utility to strip that strips that resource stuff from a file, but I can't find anything in the libraries. FWIW, I sent one of the files my associate sent to me back to him and he had no trouble loading it into PhotoShop, so the transfer itself seems to be working properly.
