Thank you, John and Uri.
I got a hint to use -e "binmode ARGVOUT" and it did the trick for me!

Hello,
I'm triying to do some substitutions on an pdf file.
perl -p -i~ -w -e "s/A/B/;" file.pdf
This works as intended, except: perl adds 0x0D (Windows \n) :-/
as a HEX diff shows.
How can I work around this? Is there something like binmode()?
cheers
Thomas
