Clever quotes

Suppose I have some text that has a lot of quoted speech in it, but it's supplied using standard (") straight single and double quotes. Is there some pre-processing tool that will try to convert them to proper curly quotes suitable for LaTeX (``) and ('')? I know it can't be done perfectly and

Hi everybody, I've just installed Lyx and even though things went fairly smooth, I'm struggling with a bunch of minor issues. (Using the latest Lyx version, Mac OS 10.4.2, Powerbook with a german keyboard. Gerben Wierda's TeX, ghostscript8, Freetype2, libiconf, libwmf, ImaheMagick,

PDF (dvipdfm) X PDF (pdflatex)

I realized that export using the pdflatex do not produce the same pdf output that the dvipdfm. The difference lay between the size of up and bottom margins and the size of the files. Why, PDF (pdflatex) -- build an output with about (e.g. 29kb) and PDF (dvipdfm) -- build an output with about
