Hi Rick, 

the symbols U+201C and U+201D have to be used for the double quotes.
The problem you describe should not occur with FM 2017 (in my test,
everything was ok). 

Also, the quotes should be handled in way that they will be formatted
with the Chinese font (not the Latin font). 

Best regards -- Tino H. Haida, Berlin

The problem is that with the Chinese there are sometimes line breaks after the open quote and before the close quote, depending on where the cross-reference falls on the line. For example, the close quote in the text below is on the second line by itself instead of bring the whole quoted text down with it.
