--- Comment #7 from László Németh <nemeth at numbertext.org> ---
@João: thanks for your bug report! It's worth to check the apostrophes in
books. For example, see the book cover of The accidental apostrophe (and the
apostrophes inside in the book):

https://www.google.hu/books/edition/The_Accidental_Apostrophe/7Zo6DwAAQBAJ?hl=hu&gbpv=1&dq=portuguese+apostrophe&pg=PT11&printsec=frontcover 

(A similar issue: I was very surprised to notice 20 years ago, that there are
no "fi" letter sequences in the books, but special printing marks instead of
them, the ligatures: fi (U+FB01). Advanced fonts uses them automatically, in
LibreOffice, too, see Linux Libertine G or OpenType fonts. Font feature "quot"
replaces the ASCII double quotation marks to the correct one, depending on the
text of the document in LibreOffice:
http://numbertext.org/linux/fontfeatures.pdf, e.g. "quot" -> “quot” in English,
and „quot” in Hungarian.)
