Hmmm. I use Minion Pro, Win XP Pro, FM 7.2p158 and have no problems with smart quotes. Smart e-mails are another issue entirely <g>.

Smart Quotes is on but when I press ' or ", question marks (?) appear in Gentium Basic and Minion Pro fonts, not quotes. Gentium Basic was selected for testing because it is an Unicode conforming font that supports every alphabet based on roman or cyrillic glyphs, including accents. It is developed and maintained by SIL (formerly Summer Institute of Linguistics) and is a high-quality font to support their mission of translating the Christian holy books into local languages and is complete within its scope. Minion Pro was selected for testing because it is from the manufacturer's of FrameMaker, so you would think that the developers would know, and presumably it came packaged with one of the many Adobe products purchased over the years. Apart from these, Smart Quotes does not work with any *.ps, *.ttf or *.otf font from any manufacturer. Anybody else seen this? What is the fix? You can still insert the single and double quotation marks from the Character Map on Windows, but what a pain! Regards, Hedley P.S.
