When I use Mac Dictate in Scrivener, saying Quote and End Quote, it adds " marks to the screen, but they are vertical up and down. Compare this to when I type them, and the front and end quotes point inward.
This would be no big deal if they showed up properly when I compiled, but this isn’t the case.
Is this a Scrivener bug? Is there any way I can fix or easily correct this?
I don’t know if it’s a bug, but you may resort to the Format| Convert| Quotes to Smart/Straight Quotes command at the end of your dictation. That should fix the wrongly entered quotes.
I would try the same test in TextEdit, and make sure Edit/Substitutions/Smart Quotes is checked off. When you type it should act just like Scrivener (it’s the same thing in fact). Now try with dictation, any different?
