From CPYTOPCD help:

Format of PC data (TRNFMT) - Help

 : 
*TEXT                                                                    
:
 :      The records in the PC document will be written in standard DOS
ASCII  :
 :      variable length format.  The ASCII carriage return and line
feed      :
 :      characters are added to the end of each record, and the ASCII
end of  :
 :      file character is added to the end of the PC
document.                :

I don't know why you would get an ASCII 26, but the help text does say
you will get CRLF added to each line.
