Offline objects that aren't source members are stored as save file
data in a zip archive file. The offline option is also available for
programs and modules, for example. Extract the .FILE file and
cpyfrmstmf to a save file.

So it does. But, once extracted, I'm guessing I need an editor that reads
EBCDIC. Any recommendations?

Subject: [WDSCI-L] "Copying" PF-DTA to client via RDi's "Make Available
Offline" generates a .OAR file

Right-click on a PF-DTA object in RDi, and you get an option on the
context menu to "Make Available Offline". You get a confirmation
dialog:

... <FileName> "will be downloaded and added to project" <ProjectName>
... Continue?

Taking the option to continue generates a file in the <ProjectName>
folder with the form: <FileName>.FILE.PF-DTA.oar

Using notepad to open these files shows compressed data. A google
search seems to indicate that the .OAR type is used by Open Simulator,
which "is an open source multi-platform, multi-user 3D application
server."

So, what does one use to open an .OAR file type created by RDi in
Windows?
