Smart Quotes Don‘t Work Correctly after Shift-Return (WP)

This information was provided by Claris Corporation on 16 March 1998, and incorporated into Apple Computer's Tech Info Library.
ClarisWorks 2.0 and ClarisImpact all allow you to create text with typographically correct quotation marks.

However, when using these curly "Smart" quotes in your text, if you use Shift-Return to enter a "soft return" (Shift-Return also creates a second line within an outline topic) and begin that second line with a quotation mark, you will incorrectly get closing smart quotes instead of opening smart quotes. Essentially, the "Smart" quotes get confused.

To get the correct quotation mark, add a blank space at the beginning of the line after the Shift-Return, type in the quotation mark, then delete that extra space.
