I could exchange first all » by the «, but then I can not do the second exchange, because the look would no be «text«.

Any clever suggestions?
It just takes an extra search/replace. Search/replace » with @@@. Next, search/replace « with ». Finally search/replace @@@ with «.

DONE!

It's a similar problem to the Fox, goose, beans, and small boat. (Google it if you want to know more about this).
