I am re-assigning this bug report to fontconfig. Dear fontconfig-devs,
now that a proper fix for the missing ligature glyphs in Tex Gyre Termes has made it into poppler [0,1], could you please revert the commit [2] to fontconfig that disabled Termes as a metric alias for Times? Thank you so much!

The TeX Gyre Termes font is aliased to Times in fontconfig and does not display this correctly. [ Development fix ] Identical package uploaded to Utopic. [ QA ] Install fonts-texgyre, then download the PDF in comment #1 and check that 'file' is displayed incorrectly (no 'fi') before and correctly after. [ Regression potential ] Some files might display better with TeX Gyre Termes. Check a few Times documents to see that they are still okay. [ Original description ] The following pdf file does not display ligatures for "fi". Open the file and search for "file". http://ceph.com/papers/weil-crush-sc06.pdf I have attached an image of the rendering of the file, showing the word "file", though not displaying "fi".
