We've been working on the same kind of project the last few weeks. With the added complexity of MAC-to-Windows and French-language TrueType to U.S. Postscript issues. 

Fortunately, all of the Quark files were saved as PDF's. Used Acrobat 5 to convert every page to an .eps (level one postscript), then Illustrator found/swapped fonts. 

These were all two-page PartsBook sections, so there wasn't much text to flow, and the graphics were the most important part of the conversion.  
Hope you won't have to deal with too many "Placed" TIF's inside the Quark graphics.  

Good luck.
