Welcome to LQ!!
First the pendrive needs to be mounted. On modern systems, this will happen automatically when it is plugged in. Once it is mounted, then you can simply drag the file icon in the GUI (Just like Windows or Mac).
In a terminal:
"mount" to see where the drive is mounted. (Or just browse in /mnt or /media)
then "cp <filename> <mountpoint>"
All this applies regardless of file type or extension.
I suggest you put the name and version of your distro in you profile, so people will be better prepared to help.
