Below are some examples of punctuation that has popped up during editing of text from OCR software. They are accompanied by greyed out spaces. « town » This should have been " "

" Susie "        This showed up as '   '   after the first change but showed up "

" girl »           In this case one changed and the other didn't.



Another situation is where a short series of dashes converts to a horizontal line and then replicates itself every time I hit enter. I assume these are AutoCorrect problems but I do not know what they are.
I have only seen these things happen when I am editing text.

Mark, in Tools > AutoCorrect, Custom Quotes tab, you can select the characters to use for starting and ending single and double quotes; by default, they are the straight quote and double-quote characters. Are those as expected? A related option is under the Options tab, Replace "standard"quotes with "custom" quotes. Also under the Options tab, if you deselect the Apply border option you should eliminate the automatic lines -- they're actually created as the bottom border of the preceding paragraph. There's more about all this in the built-in Help information, you might find more things in there that you'd like to change.
