For you, try using
» for »
and
« for «
Edit; I have tested it and using the HTML Code of it works. For more HTML code go to http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm |
I always use html code for special characters, like – » and « because a normal german keyboard doesn't have this keys. The original document however used the special signs directly. The only special characters that I use directly are the german umlauts äöü, because they are on every german keyboard.
@Charleski thanks for your hint. Everyday, I learn something new. And when I think how I started - I had absolutely no knowledge about html. And in the beginning, I used the normal notepad that comes with Windows. I still remember, when I changed german umlaus from their html code to the direct character, the search and replace on notepad took like 20 seconds for 4000 replacements. With Notepad ++ it takes like 5 seconds ... I love this program.
