				Boxes instead of quotation marks
			 
			
			I used Calibre (newest version) to upload a mobi file to my Kindle (Gen 1) and instead of quotation marks I am getting boxes.  I've never had this happen before and I checked the formatting of the book on my computer and it is perfect, no boxes in the place of quotations.  Anyone know a way around this? Thank you in advance for any help. |

			Use the option to transliterate unicode characters into ascii in the look & feel section of the conversion dialog.
