Actually, the case is quite simple. A problem exists *only* with these four typefaces: Courier (New), Comic Sans MS, Tahoma, Verdana All, *All*, *ALL* other typefaces agree that -- U+2018 is a rotated apostrophe U+2019 -- U+201B is a mirrored apostrophe U+2019 Only the above four typefaces have wrong glyphs at position U+2018, namely glyphs that actually belong into U+201B. Note that Trebuchet MS had the same problem in Windows 2000. However Trebuchet MS was fixed in Windows XP. http://www.user.uni-hannover.de/nhtcapri/quotation-marks.html
