Hi Ann,

What need to be changed are smart quotes, not the apostrophes which are used
in British publishing.  Apostrophes used where we in America would use
quotes should be left alone.  Smart quotes which come from some OCR programs
need to be changed to standard quotes.

Hope that helps.

Hi all,

Can we have some clarification on the issue of quotes?  I understood that
they needed to be changed to regular quotes because they didn't come out
right in Braille.
