For good typography you should use the correct characters. A " for
example is not a quote sign and ... are just three dots, but not an
ellipsis. But with Unicode you can use all the correct chars instead
of just their ugly ASCII replacements, like „“ and … for example.

Which is usually correct and recommended. You just have an encoding
problem somewhere. And if you don't fix it, it might also happen with
other special chars.
