Hello,

I'm using the authoring application.  Is there any way to get character 
entities into the Author view?  I expected that, by typing the special 
character, e.g. a double-quote, the editor would automatically replace it with 
the standard entity, " in this case.  But it is not the case.  The 
document is saved with just the literal character, as typed.

By trial and error I found that, if I switch to the Text view, I can type "&" 
to display a drop-list, from which I can select an entity and it will be 
inserted at the caret.  This is terribly slow and awkward to do.  It is faster 
to copy and paste.

I can't find any reference to character entities/special characters in either 
the Oxygen or the Author help.  Any clues welcome.

Thanks.
Helen
