can't you use the "dos2unix" command?

Code:
User Commands                                         dos2unix(1)

SYNOPSIS
     dos2unix [-ascii] [-iso] [-7] [-437 | -850 | -860 |  -863  |
     -865]  originalfile convertedfile

DESCRIPTION
     The dos2unix utility converts characters in the DOS extended
     character set to the corresponding ISO standard characters.
