Using smart quotes
When the Smart Quotes option is turned on, FreeHand uses a curved right or left quotation mark
or marks when you type a single (’) or double (") quotation mark. You can choose from six
predefined smart quotation marks in the Define Quotes pop-up menu.
If the Smart Quotes option is on but you want to enter straight quotation marks, you can override
the option temporarily. For example, you can use this technique to include feet and inch marks
(as in 5’ 6") when Smart Quotes is turned on.
