Hello,
I was wondering why the closing double quotation mark of courier looks wrong to me. I heard that type writer fonts based on the original letters of type writer machines are using " for opening and closing speech. Because it was a matter of using as less space as possible so they took just one letter for different uses (sometimes the same thing with zero and the letter O – it was the same on the keyboard). But the double quotation marks of the Courier of Adobe, Monotype and Microsoft are looking like this which is another thing (maybe it is a silly question but I don't know):
