If your input file is ascii, you can format it using nroff(1) or troff(1).
Example:
nroff /u/sandyl/sm_o_commdt_archive/c
Will format the file and display it to the screen so that both left and right margins are evenly adjusted. Of course, you can then pipe it uuencode, or whatever you need to do. nroff defaults to 6.5 inch lines, 11 inch long paper. Read the nroff or troff man pages for more info, but that example should work....let us know if not.

NROFF(1) General Commands Manual NROFF(1)
NAME
nroff - emulate nroff command with groff
SYNOPSIS
nroff [ -CchipStUv ] [ -dcs ] [ -Mdir ] [ -mname ] [ -nnum ] [ -olist ] [ -rcn ] [ -Tname ] [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
The nroff script emulates the nroff command using groff. Only ascii, latin1, utf8, and cp1047 are valid arguments for the -T option,
selecting the output encoding emitted by grotty, groff's TTY output device. If an invalid or no -T option is given, nroff checks the cur-
rent locale to select a default output device. It first tries the locale program, then the environment variables LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, and
LANG, and finally the LESSCHARSET environment variable.
The -h and -c options are equivalent to grotty's options -h (using tabs in the output) and -c (using the old output scheme instead of SGR
escape sequences). The -d, -C, -i, -M, -m, -n, -o, and -r options have the effect described in troff(1). In addition, nroff silently
ignores the options -e, -q, and -s (which are not implemented in troff). Options -p (pic), -t (tbl), -S (safer), and -U (unsafe) are
passed to groff. -v shows the version number.
ENVIRONMENT
GROFF_BIN_PATH
A colon separated list of directories in which to search for the groff executable before searching in PATH. If unset, `/usr/bin' is
used.
NOTES
This shell script is basically intended for use with man(1), so warnings are suppressed. nroff-style character definitions (in the file
tty-char.tmac) are also loaded to emulate unrepresentable glyphs.
