Now if OO and LO are so great, why can't they deal with curly quotes and apostrophes in imported text?

I am not sure what this is since I have never had any particular difficulty dealing with these things...

But if you have existing straight quotes in a document (perhaps in an inherited document or in text pasted in from elsewhere), there appears to be no easy way to apply that intelligence after the event.

If text is set to Default Paragraph style, either entire document or a selection, with no applied direct formatting, /Format /Autocorrect /Apply or /Format /Autocorrrect /Apply and Edit Changes will apply the autocorrect options as if one were typing.

Aaargh!  I think I knew that, in fact.  Apologies.  Thanks for the correction!

... any missed quotes will be picked up at proof-reading stage. You don't proof read?

Of course I do.  Can't you tell?
