smart quotes/straight quotes/duck-foot quote in Trados 2021 FR

There is since long an interesting check box in Trados FR, automatically correcting straight quotes " into « and ». I know that this check box in Trados EN changes those straight quotes into smart quotes (“ ”) but this function is not present in Trados FR, what is sometimes a problem.

Would it be possible to add this function this way:

Replace straight quotes by duck-foot quotes
Replace straight quotes by smart quotes

  • Hello Arnaud, the formatting of the quotes depends on the language of the text you're writing. If the text is former tes as English, you'll get English smart quotes. If it is formatted as French, you'll get French quotes. If German, then you'll get German quotes etc.
