Transfer type - Files can be transferred in either ASCII or Binary modes. Text documents should always be transferred in ASCII mode since this ensures that the document is translated into a format that is suitable for reading on your computer. You must remember that this translation is only useful for text based files, it usually makes other files unusable. Binary files, such as executable programs and compressed archives, require Binary mode transfer. This mode is also referred to as image mode since it transfers an exact copy of the original file.
