I do not have Microsoft Word.
My new font was created and installed without issue, and all the characters will work in notepad, however in Word Perfect 10, only the quote(") and apostrophe(') characters show up as white spaces. I believe all the other characters show up, although I may have missed one.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey, I'm a new guy...
I just created a font w/ my own handwriting, and I can't seem to get the quotes (") or the single quote (') to work in MS Word. I have Microsoft Office Word 2003, and I'm using the trial version (for now! ) of Font Creator 5.0.
I followed the above link, and couldn't find what I was looking for... Any help is appreciated.

I corrected the link to point to the appropriate page. As said before, Word’s autocorrect changes:
" to “ or ” and ' to ‘ or ’
Either you need to turn autocorrect off in Word or, as recommended, add the appropriate quote characters to your fonts.
Insert Characters, General Punctuation: 8216,8217,8220,8221
" to “ or ” and ' to ‘ or ’
