Just make sure you transfer files in "binary" mode, and not "ascii" ;-).
(unless, of course, they really are ascii).

Another alternative might be Samba. This might be easier in the batch
file, as the batch file doesn't have to worry about setting up the
connection:
copy file1 //server/directory
copy file2 //server/directory
however, the internals of the SMB protocol are rather messy compared
with FTP... Also, the above assumes Windows already knows the password
for the remote system (but that is probably getting off-topic here).
