It seems the files were compressed on windows ( using WINRAR) and then transferred to unix box .
Dirty way to sort this is ftp these files to your windows system and use winrar software to unzip these and then if needed again transfer back to unix server .
Google for WINRAR , it's a free software.

fimgs(1) General Commands Manual fimgs(1)
NAME
fimgs - poor man's [http://]PostScript/pdf/dvi/cbr/rar/cbz/zip viewer for the linux framebuffer console
SYNOPSIS
fimgs [ options ] file
DESCRIPTION
fimgs is a simple wrapper script which takes a PostScript or pdf or .cbr or .rar or .cbz or .zip or .dvi or any of the above prefixed with
http:// as input, renders the pages using ghostscript into a temporarely directory and finally calls fbi to display them. In case of com-
pressed archives (in zip or rar formats), the images are decompressed into a directory and displayed. In this latter case, only images
contained in the archive will be displayed (no nested archives or pdf's or ps's or dvi's).
OPTIONS
fimgs still does not understand all of fim's options (they are not passed through). so please use fimgs -h to get help on its options.
You can use option -p <password> if your PDF file requires password.
SEE ALSO
fim(1), gs(1), fbi(1), fbgs(1), bash(1)
