Copy and Paste from Word causes problems with curly quotes and apostrophes

Hello all,
I have a problem with copying and pasting from Microsoft Word into a manilla
site. The curly quotes and the apostrophes get altered to a comma in the
case of the apostrophe and a strange character for the start and ending
quotes.
I understand it's because the Frontier Server is a Mac and the client is a
PC. Attempts to fix this have only changed the wrong character to another
wrong character.
If anybody has any ideas I would be most grateful, as currently every story
that gets pasted has to be read carefully to pick up the offending
characters.
Cheers,
Paul Newport
