Check out this page:

To quote the pertinent information:
"1. How do I determine the file format the emacs saves in? (Mac,
DOS, Unix)
To change the file format of a file in emacs press C-x RET f. Then type
in undecided-mac, undecided-dos, undecided-unix for whichever format you
want."
Hope this helps,
Zach
