    I am having an issue with copying and pasting from Word 2011 Mac into Parallels 9 (running Win 8) on OSX Mavericks... Everything is updated to the lasted version with all available updates.

    If I copy and paste from Word Mac a sentence like "I went to the store with Johnny, I drove Mitchell's car there.", and paste it into my Windows virtual machine it will look like "I went to the store with Johnny? I drove Mitchell?s Car there?"

    I seems that most, if not all punctuation marks end up being a "?" instead of whatever it is supposed to be. It is odd though, the "." character is sporadic and will copy over correctly, some of the time.

    I have tried re-installing parallels tools, but that does not seem to help.
