Is there anything I can do to get a true apostrophe (right single quote)
to display correctly in the title of this piece? In the current example,
the space on either side of the glyph is unacceptable. One could use a
prime instead of a quote, but I regard that as also unacceptable..
Earlier, I tried replacing the prime character in the pdf, but then the
first line of the score shifted.
Thanks,
Marguerite
