            Bug ID: 350424
           Summary: I'm Encrypting a file and sending it to a site, the
                    decrypted file has a '.' (period) between every
                    character
           Product: kleopatra
           Version: 2.1.1
          Platform: MS Windows
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: robert.applegate at blount.com

This is the command I'n the batch file that is encrypting the file:       
$G_a = exec('C:\Program File (x86)\GNU\GnuPG\pub\gpg.exe',' --batch -- trust
model always --passphrase secret - u "User Name" -r "Recipient Name" -se
d:\bank\ach\us45ach', 8 );
The important thing is that the recipient is saying the DECRYPTED file on their
end has a '.' between each and every character in the file, the original
un-encrypted file does not. Know anything about why encrypting the file would
do this. It's a Binary file. Now I have 5 other CHECK (not ACH) files I'm using
the same keys for - but none of the other files have the problem- and I believe
they are all ASCII files (as opposed to Binary).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the data services 
job that copies the file from the SAP folder to the Data Services folder,
encrypts it, calls batch job that calls the script to send the file to the
site.2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Same result.


Encrypted the file without placing a '.' (ASCII 00) between each and every
character.
Now - originally I was copying the file with a DOS copy command with a /A
switch (ASCII), the copied file would in fact have the '.' between every
character. I have since taken the /A out of the copy command so the copied file
now looks exactly like the original, but the Encrypted file still has the '.'
between every character when decrypted.
