Hello,

Can anyone please tell me how to add curly quotes in Sigil?

As I believe, because it's not a word processor, there is no option in there to change quotes automatically. And I no longer have the original word document. So can anyone please tell me how I can change the text (straight quotes) that it's Sigil, to curly quotes.

I know what the html code is: & (#8221; ) minus the brackets, and & (#8220; ) minus the brackets. I've added brackets so you can see the code I've tried using. I can get it to work on here... “ see ” but when I type this into Sigil it doesn't render (it comes up with an error message).

All replies are appreciated!
