SUMMARY
Works has an option to use use smart quotes when typing in the Word Processor. Smart quotes are different than straight quotes by being curved. Some TrueType and many non-TrueType fonts do not use smart quotes; these fonts may display and print smart quotes as another character. Some examples are: Courier, Line Printer, Modern, and MS LineDraw.
