My server is running on ubuntu and when i transfer html, config files etc. the text format gets broken. I must open the files with notepad++ in order for me to be able to read the text on those files again, is there any way to fix it?

Unix EOL is "\n", Windows is "\r\n". Don't open files with Notepad, it doesn't recognise Unix line endings. Advanced editors like Notepad++ and all the IDEs have no problems with that.
It's possible that whatever software you're using to transfer the files changes the EOL characters in them.
