Autoformatting is not formatting, even though it is on.
Hi, I've been editing an immense document. Autoformatting has been on,
replacing "--" with em dash and straight quotes with curly. Seemingly out of the blue, the autoformatting has stopped working. I checked, and it is still on, and both options are still selected. I had not made any changes to the styles or anything. Once second it was making the changes and the next second it wasn't. I tried turning the option off and on again. Tried closing and opening the document. Restarted the computer. Both "autoformat" and "autoformat as you type" have the correct boxes checked. Any suggestions? |

Well, It just started working again, just as suddenly and seemingly
randomly, as it stopped working... I would still appreciate any insight, for when it happens again (as it surely will!). On Dec 19, 7:59 pm, "Ilse" wrote: Hi, I've been editing an immense document.
