    Hi Andrew,

    > Bug 2421: "TM, Bullet, Euro, Smart Quotes and other
    > symbols originating in Windows Documents"
    I can deal with the case where the glyph for the Unicode codepoint is
    missing, but I suspect some of the issues raised in the bug have to do
    with import/export from win1252. I will remap (c) to C, TM to T, Euro to
    E and smart quotes to ' and ".

    It is both old and new -- its new in the sense it has been extracted from
    renderString() into a function of its own, please add any extra quote
    definitions.
