Difference between code page used with grep and vi

Not certain the title is phrased correctly but here's the issue:

I need to scrape data out of a pdf file. I ftp the file from windows to unix(solaris 10) as a binary file. Open the file in vi and search for a string, Matrix, but no joy. Then I cat the same file, pipe it to grep 'Matrix' and the string is found.

Can anyone explain this behavior and, perhaps, how to get vi to act the same as grep. BTW I did not try awk, perl or sed; yet anyway.

Thanks,
rj
