But I don'tlike the way the new ones curl. It seems to me they should be reversed so that at the beginning of a quote they slant L-R from bottom to top so as to be more consistent with the traditional shape of the curl.

Drafts sent to me by my partner are almost always full of straight marks, which conflict with my curly mark additions. You've both confirmed my suspicions that curly marks are preferred and clued me in out how to fix my partner's settings in one post. Brilliant. Thank you, thank you for this!
