[QUOTE="IvanLasston, post: 1086767, member: 145676"] We need more information. Saying you need to create binaries to upload photos is like saying I need to create binaries to upload music to a newsgroup - as schweb pointed out your PDF and photos are already binary. If you could tell us about the newsgroup - maybe we could go research what they want so you can upload. Back in the day newsgroups and usenet only supported ASCII - and you had to uuencode binary files - that is convert them to text. Then others could download that text file and uudecode it so it converted them to the actual binary file - such as pictures - Modern day newsgroups and readers don't really need to do that anymore - that is, when you upload a file you just upload the file in its binary format. FTP programs distinguish between binary and ascii when uploading but now adays you just almost always upload in bin mode. You say you found a lot of information for Windows to do what you want to do - can you post links? [/QUOTE]
