Use quotation marks

You can specify different quotation marks for different languages. These quotation mark characters appear
automatically during typing if the Use Typographer’s Quotes option is selected in the Type section of the Preferences
dialog box.

Do any of the following, and then click OK:

• For Double Quotes, select a pair of quotation marks, or type the pair of characters you want to use.

• For Single Quotes, select a pair of quotation marks, or type the pair of characters you want to use.

Insert straight quotation marks

Do one of the following:

• Choose Type > Insert Special Character > Quotation Marks > Straight Double Quotation Marks or Straight

Single Quotation Mark (Apostrophe).

• Deselect the Use Typographer’s Quotes option in the Type section of the Preferences dialog box, and then type

the quotation mark or apostrophe.

• Press Shift+Ctrl+Alt+' (Windows) or Shift+Command+Option+' (Mac OS) to switch between turning on and

off the Use Typographer’s Quotes preferences option.

The character frequently used to indicate feet, arcminutes, or minutes of time is the prime mark. It looks like a slanted
apostrophe. The character frequently used to indicate inches, arcseconds, or seconds of time is the double prime mark.

These symbols are different from apostrophes and double quotation marks. Some fonts include the prime and double prime
marks. Use the Glyphs panel to insert these marks. If the font doesn’t have a prime or double prime mark, insert the straight
quotation mark, and italicize it.
