Description
### Bug
When I am parsing a pdf file instances of where a " is used is changed into a ' in a table. This is an issue as these symbols are frequently tied to units of measurement in documents I work with.
### Steps to reproduce
Parse a pdf file which has tables where " is used in the table cells. In doing so all instances of " will be converted to ' and all instances of ' will also be '.
See example here:
Original PDF screen shot.

Converted to Markdown.


I can also provide the pdf file itself if that is helpful but don't want to upload onto this bug report since there are names, email addresses, and phone numbers on it.
