Can someone tell me if this behavior is normal? If so it's awful...

I used the Smarten Punctuation when I saw straight quotes/apostrophes. I got a message that it fixed both the jacket and the file. Great.

A bit further down the file (this ebook only has the one file, plus the jacket), I see more straight quotes/apostrophes. I Smartened, it fixed the file, didn't touch the jacket this time. I Smartened again, just in case, it said there was nothing to fix. Fantastic.

About 4 paragraphs later, where I did nothing but scroll down, I see more straight quotes/apostrophes. I hit Smarten, and it finds things to fix.

Any ideas why?
