Wintel to Mac font question

Dear Seelangers,
Does anyone know if there is an Apple font that accurately maps
Windows diacritics for Central European Latin-based typefaces? When I
import, for instance, Word documents that have Polish or Czech
diacritics, these always are lost, either coming through as
underscores or as other letters. Apple Times New Roman does not map
correctly to the Windows Times New Roman original that has the
diacritics (and in which most of these PC documents originated).
Using Apple Central European fonts, e.g., Geneva CE, gets some of
the characters but not all of them. I'm running Mac OS 9.0.4, with
the Central European and Unicode kits installed. I am using Word 2001
as my main word processor.
Cyrillic is less of a problem than this. Any hints?
Thanks,
Robert De Lossa
