Does anyone know why RTF files from my Mac when opened with
WriteNow or Wordperfect have fractions (1/2, 1/4) where quotation
marks used to be, and a' (accent grave) where the apostrophe 
used to be? I am not saving with smart quotes in the Mac file. ascii
works better, but of course formatting is largely gone.
