How to Get High “Marks”
Tuesday, May 22, 2007 Filed in: Weekly Tip
You’ve probably heard that art directors always look for true quote marks (“ ”). The same holds true for apostrophes or single quotes (‘ ’). But how do you access these when all you have is an engineering-style keyboard? After all, you probably knew that the key next to the Return key was for indicating feet and inches (they look like this, 6' 3’").
You access the true quote marks by pressing the following:
- Option + [ for “
- Option + Shift + [ for ”
- Option + ] for ‘
- Option + Shift
+ ] for ’
