Ubuntu font and Mac OSX
I really like Ubuntu font, so I installed it also on my Mac.
All seemed good at first, using a simple text editor such as TextMate; but when I wanted to use Pages or simply Byword or Ulysses, I realised that something was going wrong with—characters encoding?
Look at this screenshot (the application is Pages):
The text should be, instead, this:
This is a test. Let[U+2019]s use some apostrophes and dashes.
[U+2013] I[U+2019]m goin[U+2019] out with my friends, mum.
[U+2013] What time are you comin[U+2019] back?
[U+2013] About 23 o[U+2019] clock[U+2014]or maybe 24.
That is:
This is a test. Let’s use some apostrophes and dashes.
– I’m goin’ out with my friends, mum.
– What time are you comin’ back?
– About 23 o’ clock—or maybe 24.
Why does this happen? Is there something I can do?
