[Tex/LaTex] Style of quotation marks

csquotes

This time I would like to ask you if you know how to change the style of signs on the left side and on the right side of a quotation. First quotation mark (that on the left) should be two commas at the bottom and the second (that on the right side) – two commas on the top on the right (schematically – bottom(,,)…top(,,)).

Best Answer

You can use csquotes:

\documentclass[spanish,french,ngerman,american,british]{article}
\usepackage[autostyle]{csquotes}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\begin{document}
  \enquote{UK English} \selectlanguage{american} \enquote{US English} \selectlanguage{spanish} \enquote{Spanish} \selectlanguage{french} \enquote{Français} \selectlanguage{ngerman} \enquote{Deutsche}
\end{document}

language-variant quotation marks

Note that I have no idea if these are correct except for the first two. I'm just going by the package claiming they are!

EDIT

Since you are typesetting Polish, things are not quite so straightforward as csquotes doesn't know what the marks should look like. However, I believe that the style is the same as for Dutch. If so, then a simple alias allows us to get the correct style for Polish:

\documentclass[polish]{article}
\usepackage[autostyle]{csquotes}
\DeclareQuoteAlias{dutch}{polish}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\begin{document}
  \enquote{Polish}
\end{document}

Polish (hopefully)
