We've got a problem that's really got us stumped. Was wondering if you could shed some light, or point us in the direction of someone who could.
This is what we currently think is happening: A PostScriptfile is created with Adept, an SGML layout program, on UNIX with the font CM-Courier10PitchBT- Regular. The Unicode encoding during this process designates a hexadecimal value of 0027 for the Apostrophe or quotesingle character. However, when the resulting PostScript file is then Distilled on the PC using Acrobat, the encoding standard used is Adobe Standard. 0027 in the Adobe Standard Encoding system really has a Unicode hex value of 2019, and instead of the Apostrophe, is the Right Single Quotation Mark or quoteright. The following web page alludes to this mapping difference: http://unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/ADOBE/stdenc.txt
# (1) The Unicode value (in hexadecimal)
# (2) The Adobe Standard Encoding code point (in hexadecimal)
# (3) # Unicode name
# (4) # PostScript character name
2019 27 # RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK # quoteright
0027 A9 # APOSTROPHE # quotesingle
Any thoughts on how to get this character to appear correctly?
If not, what version are you testing with?

I've been using Acrobat since v1.0 and still get amazed by its power. An Acrobat ACE since 1999
