Sorry I don't really have any ideas off the top of my head. But if  
you send me a sample file, I'll see what I can do. I personally never  
use anything but ASCII characters in my LaTeX documents. You might  
also want to ask around in the mactex users list. ( http:// 
www.esm.psu.edu/mac-tex/mailinglist.shtml, you should also read
