See the slide below for three examples of straight quotes not being properly converted to curly quotes:
This is on Windows.
It's been logged that the straight quotes are displayed as curly quotes. I believe that the direction of the curly quote is a convention determined by the font type, though. For example, if I change the font to Sniglet, the curly quotes appear correctly:
Thanks again for the report.
I believe that the direction of the curly quote is a convention determined by the font type, though.
I'm pretty sure that's not correct. Below is a screenshot, that is identical to the one above (same font, same text). But this time the quotes are correct!
And here's another slide, this time using the Squigly font, where one of the quotes is incorrect.
And here's another one, where two identical lines produce two different quotes in the same font!
Does this help?
I can't reproduce this every time, but generally, if you type in the text it is likely to be correct. If you copy/paste the text it will possibly go wrong.
That's what I'm having to do — manually correct incorrect quotes. But it's annoying and time-consuming to have to check them all in this way.
