You might want to contact Michael Grant; I believe that as owner of a
translation agency in Prague and a frequent Mac user he developed a macro
to make the required character substitutions.  Neither Apple's nor
Microsoft's byte-to-character codings need be considered more correct than
the other, but some substitution is needed.  Michael's address is
