George: 

The big problem is that the combined character (u with "double tick mark," also called Hungarian umlaut or double acute) does not exist in the font and language you're using. It's in the Mac Eastern European script. 

If you're on OS 8 or 9 with a normal application (not something cool like Adobe InDesign), you'll want a single-byte "CE" font. You'll find a bunch of them hidden in the Adobe WebType collection. Alternately, if you're on OS X, and you're only using TextEdit, you should be able to just switch your language settings and some of your system fonts will just work.
