Why, after copying my post from MS Word into the Body field, does my text contains funky characters such as ’?
Our website uses the UTF-8 character set, the international standard, which is different from the one used by MS Word. It cannot properly interpret curly quotes and some other special characters when they are pasted into the browser. You can edit your post directly in the browser and correct those characters.
