An apostrophe is not a quote, even if it looks like one, but a character that indicates something was omitted. The sentence “In the ’90s we gave ’em hell.” has two apostrophes and zero single quotes. You can make a custom style by selecting quotation characters from the drop-down lists for double quotes, single quotes, and apostrophes.ĮditPad is smart enough to distinguish between apostrophes and single quotes. Pretty much all quotation styles used around the world are available in EditPad Pro. Selecting a style changes the 5 different quotation characters that you can choose.
The “ quotation style” drop-down list is a speed setting. It does not use any of the other settings. The Straight ⇒ Smart Quotes command uses the settings in the “straight to smart quotes” group in the upper left corner of that dialog. If there is no selection, the quotes on the line that the cursor is on are converted.Įxactly which straight quotes are converted into exactly which smart quotes depends on the choices you made in Convert|Quotes|Quotation Style. Select Straight ⇒ Smart Quotes in the Quotes submenu of the Convert menu to convert straight quotes in the selected text into smart quotes.
