What Use Double Quotes Everywhere can do:

This tool converts all single and smart quotes into straight double quotes across your content. It’s perfect for cleaning up text that mixes quote styles or for enforcing a consistent formatting standard in HTML, XML, or plain text. With smart options to preserve attribute safety and a live preview, it’s a fast way to prep text for publishing, data exchange, or testing.

Example:

Before:

Here’s a 'quote' in <div class='box'>HTML</div>

After:

Here"s a "quote" in <div class="box">HTML</div>

Common Use Cases:

Use this tool to sanitize pasted content, prepare code or templates for strict environments, or standardize quote style for JSON, XML, or HTML processing. It’s also great for fixing smart quote problems from word processors or PDFs.

Useful Tools & Suggestions:

If you’re standardizing quotes, run Replace Smart/Straight Quotes first to fix any inconsistencies. And once that’s set, HTML Minifier can help tidy things up without breaking your carefully updated formatting.
