Code Replacement Apostrophe

[Mrboy]

I have bit of problem using Code Replacement.

Whenever I use an apostrophe to identify a team name in the possessive, ie: {Illinois'} or {Ohio State's} the apostrophe appears as a "?" in the caption {Illinoi?s} or {Ohio State?s}.

Can anyone offer a solution? I love code replacement, but I'm tired of fixing the ? marks.

Can you post a sample of your Code Replacement text file?

Here is a sample of the file I'm using tonight. This is created in AppleWorks6 and saved as a .txt file. Everything else works fine, just the apostrophe. I use "i" to designate Illinois, because that's who I shoot all the time and "v" for visitor, who is Clemson, tonight.

(Now that I've read my post... This is probably an AppleWorks issue, it's a bit old.)

Thanks...

It looks like your apostrophe isn't a standard apostrophe and as such it is likely not encoded properly for the UTF-8 Unicode encoding that Photo Mechanic requires.  So either use the standard 'single quote' apostrophe, or save your text file with a text editor that can save in the UTF-8 format.
