Quotation marks are swapped after updating 2022 version. Is there any way to auto fix it?

Hello. Quotation marks in my entire old files are swapped after I update InDesign to 2022 version. Is there any way to fix this, not manually? Thanks.

Not my area of expertise but try this:

Check Edit/Preferences/Dictionary for the settings, is it set correctly there? If not, change and force a recomposition after that (Command-Option-/ (slash) or Ctrl-Alt-slash).

Hi @DamaGazelle:

Are you concerned that the numbers don't match? 1897 matches vs 1926? I think you will definitely want to proof the file carefully.

Yes. It's long novel. So, there are some text in textboxes that didn't get the effect at first but they've got the effect after my Find/Change. This will go through proofreading porcess anyway. Thanks a lot for enlightening me with GREP.
