Unruly quotes

Hello

How do I get FP to display typographical quotes instead of inch marks.

You can use the HTML entities, but you would have to do that manually each
time -

& rdquo; and & ldquo; (I have put a space between the "&" and the rest of
the entity to ensure that they post properly here - that space should be
removed).

Is there a character set (one that is "normal" so everyone has it) that
includes the correct quotes?

www.richardfisher.com

No. HTML itself is represented in ASCII format, which precludes the use of
these symbols in fonts. You end up having to use the character code instead.
For example, even though you see a double quote in the browser the HTML code
is actually ". Only valid ASCII characters are allowed.

Hope this helps,

They still look like "inch" marks. I think the OP means the "66" and "99"
type quotes.

However I believe the different styles are dependent on the font being used.

Double quotes and they are font dependent

<font face="Arial">“These are Double Quotes”</font>
