Changing the appearance of quotation marks

You can use SmartQuotes to change the appearance of double, single, and straight quotes in a document. For example, you can insert curly quotation marks into a document, instead of inserting the default straight quotation marks.

Therefore, if you want to apply the settings to all the quotation marks in a document, you need to specify the quotation mark settings when you first create the document.
