Powershell Copy User Description from one Domain to another in one Forest

Question

Hi.
I would like to copy the Description field from one domain to another domain in the same forest.
First I would like to get the following data from source domain
- SamAccountName
- Description
- Office
- Job Title
- Department
- Manager
I would like to get these informations to a txt-file. That I can manage myself, I think.
These values shoud then be set on the destination domain - and here my powershell skills are not suffecient. How do I add these values from txt-file to existing users? (if some users aren't there, the script should continue)....
I can Get-AdUser -Identity xxx -Server sourcedomain and Get-AdUser -Identity xxx -Server destinationdomain from the same powershell windows.
Regards
Carsten

Hi. Thank you very much for helping me out. I tried the above script and added in additional properties.
When I run the script, I only get one line in my csv-file, the Office-field is empty and all items appear on screen instead of output to file.
The script looks as follows:
$ou = [adsi] "LDAP:<Server>"
$searcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher $ou
$searcher.Filter = 'objectClass=user'
$result = $searcher.FindAll()
foreach($contacts in $result)
 $contact = $contacts.GetDirectoryEntry()
 $contact | Select-Object -Property @{Name="SamAccountName";Expression={$_.SamAccountName}},
           @{Name="Description";Expression={$_.Description}},
           @{Name="Office";Expression={$_.Office}},
           @{Name="Title";Expression={$_.Title}},
           @{Name="Department";Expression={$_.Department}},
           @{Name="Manager";Expression={$_.Manager}}
$contacts | Export-Csv -Path output.csv
