The smartypants filter module uses SmartyPants-PHP to automatically translate plain ASCII punctuation characters into “smart” typographic punctuation HTML entities. It performs the following transformations:

  • Straight quotes ( ” and ’ ) into “curly” quote HTML entities
  • Backticks-style quotes (“like this”) into “curly” quote HTML entities
  • Dashes (“–”; and “—”) into en- and em-dash entities
  • Three consecutive dots (“…”) into an ellipsis entity
