Select Preferences... under the Edit menu and turn off the Smart Quotes option.
Shift-<'> will then produce the universal quantifier in the Symbol font. Of
course, you'll have to remember to use the Option-<[, {, ], }> commands for
real quotes.
It would be nice if Word would automatically disable Smart Quotes when certain
fonts (like Symbol) were being used. You could write a macro, but it probably
isn't worth it. Does anybody else have any ideas? (Besides making it a
feature on Word 5. How hard could it be to allow the user to specify the
fonts that should not use Smart Quotes?)
I hope this helps.
