I have imported a relatively long document from an email, which contains a lot of single and double quote marks, all of them "inch marks"--straight lines. They need to be curly quotes and apostrophes. While I could and did change the preferences (in whatever drop-down menu I found it) to use single and double curly quotes, it does not automatically take place, and I don't know how to do a search and replace on them, since some double quotes are opening quotes, and some are closing quotes.
Go to Format | AutoCorrect > | Apply or to Format | AutoCorrect > | Apply and Edit Changes. You may want to select options at Tools | AutoCorrect Options... before you do this. Alternatively, you may want to do this before you carry out other formatting, so that you can reverse any additional changes you do not want. This procedure will affect material only in the Default paragraph style.
