Can't How to Replace quotation marks with smart quotation marks
I have Pages 7.1. on an iMac with MacOs version 10.13.6. I am trying to Replace instances of quotation marks preceding end punctuation (British style) with quotation marks following end punctuation (that is, changing ". to ."). The Replace function replaces smart (curly) quotation marks with straight ones--even though, in the Preferences, I checked "Use smart quotes and dashes." I also checked "Symbol and text substitution" and tried to specify curly quotes there. If I can't automate this, I will have to make thousands of these corrections manually.
