General ⇒ Printing ` and ' literally problem

[dustbinbear]

Recently I'm working on a document which require `, ', " to be printed out literally however.

even though I used \verb+`+ and \verb+'+ and \verb+"+

I end up getting the replacement ‘ ’ (left and right quote symbols)

Anyone know a way to get around this?

thanks.

Hi,

take a look at The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List. Skimming through it I found that the textcomp package offers \textasciigrave to obatin `

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{textcomp}

\begin{document}

\textasciigrave

\end{document}
