It's the other way around now. It's easier to replace the double-dash with
and em dash. You can't use both--it has to be one or the other. I though
that, as Roger says, the converter would change the double dash to am em
dash and left the double dash, but there was space between the double
dash and preceding and following words and that's a nono, and apparently
I didn't close them all; Finally I found the easiest thing for me was to
do a find and replace the double dash with an em dash, then

Cindymake sure there were no spaces before or after

I'm new to volunteering, and I just started proofreading my first book
yesterday. On the list of characters found here:

in the notes for the m-dash character, it says to use two dashes. I
want to replace all the m-dashes in the book. Is there an easy way to
do this?
