You are opening the output file without specifying if it is a text
file or a binary one. On OSX (and UNIX) this makes no difference, but
on Windows, text files are different from binary ones.

This looks pretty much like you were writing to the file opened in
text mode.

Try opening the output file specifically in binary mode:

FILE* outputfile = fopen(filename,"wb");
