Can anyone tell me how I can get smart quotes in my footnotes? When I add bibliography entries for book chapters or journal articles, their titles are enclosed in regular quote marks rather than "smart quotes." As the rest om my text uses these smart quotes, I'd like to achieve consistency. I'm sure there is a quick fix for this, but so far it is eluding me. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

If you mean smart quotes around a field for each entry, edit the format to use smart quotes instead of dumb ones. If you mean ad hoc in individual entries, again enter smart quotes from the keyboard in the reference itself.

I don't see a smart quotes option. Is it in the Formats Manager?

There is no smart quotes option. You just enter them yourself from the keyboard.

On my US keyboard, the open quote is

Option-[

and the close quote is

Shift-Option-[

Brilliant, I've never had to edit the symbols of a style before. It wasn't so bad! I've noticed that in the CMoS such quotes are generally of the 'smart' kind, though I'm sure some publishers will want to the 'dumb' type too.
