I suppose a translator could look at the e.g. English original in the
appropriate codepage(ie 1252) and easily recognize quote characters - if
it can't be gathered from the context.
Then finding "a suitable replacement" should be trivial - if you speak a
language you likely know what kind of quotes are usually used there.
