Hello Sasi,
the document you should study is the documentation of the fontspec package.
http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fontspec/fontspec.pdf
Otherwise, we can only help us, if you post a minimal example of file
not working as you like.
ciao

Thank you for both suggestions.So sorry. I did try both separately, but
still did not succeed. I couldn't get either the smart quotes or the
long dash. Am willing to study any document that is available online if
that would help. The reason I am insisting on this is that I am
preparing a document for publication and I would like it to look as
"authentic" as I can.
Thanks for the help and sorry for the trouble.
Best regards,
Sasi
