very new to fontlab, question about quotes

[nhigbee]

My question is relating to the use of direction quotes when making a new TrueType font in Fontlab Studio. How does one make the font so that the Double Quote and Single Quote glyphs are hooking in the correct direction when typed? I am new to FontLab, so I'm not sure how this works.

Thank you,

Left double quotation mark “ (Unicode 8220) and right double quotation mark ” (Unicode 8221) are different characters. So you must create and draw both glyphs. The same with single quotation marks.

great, thank you! now i'm not quite sure how to get the four quotes to show properly when typed on the keyboard. is there a way to get both double quotes and both single quotes to show properly when hitting the apostrophe button and the quotation mark button on the keyboard?

does unicode only take effect after the font is generated?

Platform, application, keyboard layout - everything makes difference.
