Email tool not recognising apostrophe’s

Hi,

 

I have been using the text icon to create an email template which will then be sent via Alteryx. Apostrophises seem to show correctly when I look at them via a browse tool but when I send the emails they disappear. Does anyone know how I troubleshoot please?

Hannah

thank you,
