For some reason MS-Word replaces regular single and double quotes that you type on your keyboard with what they call fancy quotes by default. You can find one of those quotes in your file in CLAN and replace it with regular single quote like this one<font color="#ff2600" class=""> '</font>. Or you can use CHSTRING to do the same on all files. Just make sure to use <font color="#ff2600" class="">-w</font> option with CHSTRING when doing it. I don't know which exactly fancy single quote you have in your file, because there are several of them, so I can't give an exact example.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">
