Smart quotes special characters in transaction issue resolved

  • Type: Defect correction
  • Reference: PBI 257585
  • Compliance Impacts: This defect is not a compliance or regulatory issue.
  • Documentation: No document impact.
Summary: It was reported that special characters 0145, 0146, 0147, and 0148 resulted in errors on static documents. See the Expere log example below for more information.

Expere log example
Opening single smart quote Alt 0145 C1 Error
Closing single smart quote Alt 0146 C1 Error
Opening double smart quote Alt 0147 C1 Error
Closing double smart quote Alt 0148 C1 Error

Solution: Quotation marks are now converted appropriately (from smart quotes to regular quotes); as a result, static and dynamic documents do not produce an error when generating a .PDF document if smart quotes are present.

Implementation Notes

This feature requires an Expere Engine update.
