Before going into the details of plain text file encodings, I think it is important to decide whether you need to use plain text for information interchange. If you simply save the document in Word format (perhaps safest in the older format, a .doc file), I would expect Windows and Mac versions to play well together.

If you specifically do not want to use Word format, then why are you using Word in the first place, as opposite to using a Unicode-aware plain text editor. (This was a genuine question, not rhetoric. There are possible reasons for using Word even when you want plain text, e.g. the use of spell checking features in Word.)
