Dear Christopher,
The character I use for the ligature in cases such as "e_il" is in
the Toccata Font, lower base b. If you are using Type Into Score you
can enter a b, then go to the Edit Lyrics box and change the font to
Toccata.

Hi all,
Sorry to bring this up again, but I can't find the thread where this
was discussed last year. I remember Mark D. Lew had some intelligent
things to say on the subject.
I thought one could use an underscore character from some other font
as a curved ligature connecting two syllables on the same note. But
Finale 2005 treats that character as a word extension now, whereas
it didn't behave that way the last time I needed to do this (I think
it was back in 2002!)
What is the method now for entering
e_um
with the curved ligature? Do I have to enter a hard space and enter
the ligature as a staff expression?
And my client tells me that
e'um
with the apostrophe is an accepted method of indicating the same
thing. I have no knowledge of this. Is this the real deal? She is a
singer, so I might trust her judgment on the ligature, but she
consistently leaves beats out of measures, forgets accidentals and
misnotates rhythms, so I have to take everything she says with a
grain of salt.
Thanks a lot.
Christopher
