Hi,
as far as I know are ligatures (ff, ft, ...) special glyphs, i.e. the
two letters are represented by ONE symbol which (surprise?) is not
recognized by text processing software.
... and maybe cannot be recognized when working with copy + paste.
IMHO to recognize them should be a feature of programs like acroread
when marking and exportiung a region.
Is there any program known to offer a feature of this kind?
Cheers
Hellmut

How did you convert it, by copy and paste or export to plain text?
I've no clue how ligature affects the conversion, unless it was converted
from dvi or ps or pdf format.
I did the conversion using the File->Export->OpenOffice.org Writer function in
LyX, which uses oolatex. I too have no clue as to how the ligature (which
appears to be the problem) affects the conversion. But the error is quite
repeatable.
