Strange characters when converting from Word 2007 to Word 2003

Hi everyone,
I have a number of documents created and saved in Word 2007 (docx),
and I need to open and work with them in Word 2003. A number of weird
things seem to happen in conversion:
left double quotes convert to an uppercase A
right double quotes convert to an at symbol (@)
apostrophes convert to an equal sign (=)
the section symbol converts to an apostrophe
Some of these documents may have originated in WordPerfect before they
were converted to Word 2007. Has anyone seen this kind of thing, and
is there a solution? Search/replace is time-consuming, particularly
for the uppercase A.
.
