Hi
Frame 8.0p277 on Win XP SP2. Smart Quotes turned on. Font in test doc
is Bembo. Language = UK English. Windows regional settings = English
New Zealand.
I've just tested the single and double curly quotes in a Frame document
and they all work fine for me. The Smart Quotes section in my maker.ini
looks like this:
; Smart Quote Characters
; SmartQuotes \xd4\xd5\xd2\xd3 ) English curved quotes
; SmartQuotes \xe2\xd4\xe3\xd2 ) German-style quotes with base quotes
; SmartQuotes \xd5\xd5\xc7\xc8 ) French-style quotes using guillemets
; SmartQuotes \xd5\xd5\xd3\xd3 ) Swedish- and Finnish-style quotes
; SmartQuotes \xd4\xd5\xd2\xd3 ) Italian curved quotes
;
; English curved quotes:
SmartQuotes=‘’“”
In case the actual quote characters don't reproduce correctly via the
list, they are curly quotes in the ini file (ie like 6 9). When I
opened the ini file into my old text editor Kedit, they did not
display. However, they did display correctly in Notepad.
As far as I can remember, I haven't modified my maker.ini file at all
(although I have other customisations).
Cheers
Dave
