Great! Yes, the book was published in England. Interesting fact to know. Lori----- Original Message ----- From: "Mayrie ReNae" <mrenae@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Lori,I don't think this is a mistake. The apostrophe in place of quotation marks is traditional in books published in England and near there. If your book comes from there, I'd just leave them to be true to the text.Peace, Mayrie At 04:07 PM 3/19/2008, you wrote:Hi, Everyone,I am editing a book which was submitted as an .ark file. Throughout the file, single quotes are used rather than regular double quote marks (' rather than "). Should I replace the single quotation marks with double quotes or leave them. Since this occurs throughout the book, I am hesitant to make the change, but maybe it should be done?Thanks for thoughts.
