Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 452 Curly quotes and the Smart Punctuation command, part of Deke's Techniques.
- In this movie, we're once again inside Adobe Illustrator,…and we're going to take a look at the smart punctuation…command, but it's also absolutely essential…when placing and formatting texts.…So what we're looking at here is chapter five…from one of my favorite books ever,…"The Wonderful Wizard of Oz", which was written by…L. Frank Baum back in the year 1900,…which is why it's in the public domain,…and that's also how I was able to download this document…from gutenberg.org.…Now, it's wonderful that gutenberg.org…provides access to this treasure trove of classic books,…but they don't necessarily format their documents…the way a topographer would.…
