I don't understand why a document would change when you move it from one computer to another. The Use Typographer's Quotes should only kick in when you type, copy/paste, use find/change… something like that, when the character is being changed anyway. You're saying that the glyph changes when you open the document itself?

Just to clarify, are you using “straight double quotes” or the “double prime” glyph? In general, the “true” inch march is a double-prime (Unicode 02BA in Symbol, I believe). Not sure how to type it, besides the Glyphs panel. If you can't type it, you probably can't make it with a grep style (which is what you'd probably want). Hm.
