Description of problem: I use ChessBase to construct diagrams in Powerpoint. I copy the positions on to the clipboard in order to then paste them directly as positions into Microsoft Powerpoint with the “DiagramTTFritz” font.
However in all my diagrams I get two mistakes in the representation of ranks 2 and 7 on the right-hand edge of the board.
I have tried in vain to fix the mistakes. The mistake also occurs when I attempt to represent the |2 manually with Shift+2. The problems only crop up with Powerpoint. In Microsoft Word there are no problems or mistakes when pasting the diagrams with the same font.
Solution: Word and Powerpoint have an auto-correct function “Replace straight quotes with smart quotes”. The font recognises the straight quotation marks correctly, but not the smart ones. If one turns off this auto-correct function, then in every case all works perfectly.
