Big Problem!

I am trying to post my Fan Fiction series in the fanfic forum, but there is a major problem. I am copying from a word document, which probably has something to do with it, but when I preview the story all the punctuation marks turn into something like this!

                                                 #87765;
how do I fix this?

Re: Big Problem!

you could through the story and edit all the numbers and change them to the little marks you want (")

Re: Big Problem!

ok then have you tried saving your story in a different program like notepad or wordpad and the copy and paste from them?

Re: Big Problem!

I just remembered something:

The problem only shows up when I press preview or submit; it is just normal in the typing window.

Re: Big Problem!

Codefications are different... that's the "why?" of the error.
