[texworks] unwanted translation of ascii apostrophe in resulting pdf file

[Lorne Dudley]

I have attached a simple test case and resulting files demonstrating the 
problem.

Software used is
python 2.7.9
TexWorks 0.4.5 r1280 (MiKTeX 2.9)

apostrophe.rst is the start point.

C:\Python27\Scripts> python rst2html.py apostrophe.rst apostrophe.html

apostrophe.html displays correctly.

C:\Python27\Scripts> python rst2latex.py apostrophe.rst apostrophe.tex
(note that apostrophe.tex still contains unmodified apostrophes)

open apostrophe.tex in TexWorks

Typeset pdfLaTex

apostrophe.pdf is produced

Notice that in the resulting apostrophe.pdf
     the second line apostrophe and the
     apostrophes within the php code block appear different, but

  In each case, if the resulting "apostrophe" is cut and pasted into an 
ascii based text editor, the result is
an ascii character with hex code 92 rather than the original ascii hex 
code 27 character.

This causes great problems for people who like to cut and paste code 
examples from a tutorial pdf document.

Is there anyway to configure TexWorks so that the correct ascii 27 code 
appears in the pdf document ???

Example of alteration of ' (apostrophe)
=======================================

APOSTROPHE is hex code 27 in both ascii and utf-8.

.. code-block:: php

    // app/Model/User.php
    App::uses('AppModel', 'Model');

    class User extends AppModel {
        public $validate = array(
            'username' => array(
                'required' => array(
                    'rule' => array('notEmpty'),
                    'message' => 'A username is required'
                )
            ),
            'password' => array(
                'required' => array(
                    'rule' => array('notEmpty'),
                    'message' => 'A password is required'
                )
            ),
            'role' => array(
                'valid' => array(
                    'rule' => array('inList', array('admin', 'author')),
                    'message' => 'Please enter a valid role',
                    'allowEmpty' => false
                )
            )
        );
    }
