Hello. What the best way to use commands "--- and others (works in
babel with Russian language) in XeTeX with polyglossia?
Hi Alexander:
If you use a preamble with something like this:
%\usepackage[no-math]{fontspec} %% un-comment if you don't use math stuff
\usepackage{xltxtra} %%% this loads fontspec and xunicode also
\usepackage[nolocalmarks]{polyglossia} %%% [nolocalmarks] helps if you
have custom headers
\setdefaultlanguage[variant=american]{english}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
The last command ( \defaultfontfeatures ) is what enables fontspec to
use --- and " as the standard (La)TeX does. However, with Xe(La)TeX, you
can enter — and “ (or ” ) directly since that's part of the genius of XeTeX.
HTH.
