I'd really like to convert the latex quotation marks, `` and '' to the recommended HTML curly quotes, “ instead of `` and ” instead of '' - standard codes that render the curly quotes beautifully.
I'm sure that this is possible through latex2html - the codes are listed around unicode.pl:722 - but either I can't find the magic incantation to have latex2html do the conversion or there is a bug preventing this from working in my version (1.70) or set-up.
I've tried:
latex2html -html_version 4.0,unicode test.tex
What is strange is that this does work for, say \v{Z} which converts to the code Ž (and that is definitely happening through unicode.pl (I changed the translation and it worked fine).
So why doesn't the translation for `` (which is correctly listed in the unicode.pl as \`\`) and '' which is correctly listed as \'\' work?
I've had a good hunt around for this - but I can't see why the other codes are converted but not the quotes.
Cheers, James
ps. minimal test.tex follows
----------
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\begin{document}
``Why are these quotes not converted to unicode'' (they are in the unicode.pl file)
While this symbol (also in the unicode.pl file) is? - \v{Z}
\end{document}
