I'm using a TTF file that has no ligature capability as a built-in feature. It
does however have glyphs for fi and fl but ConTeXt isn't substituting them.
So the question is: what do I need to do to persuade ConTeXt to do fi & fl
ligature substitution?
Any suggestions please? Is a font features file the 'right' way? I would have
thought that there was a more traditional solution
you can write your own feature (examplex in test suite and manuals) where you
map f + f onto ff
Thanks Hans - I keep forgetting about the test suite.
For the benefit of those coming here via the mail archive, I found what I
needed in the cont-tst.zip test suite in the file fonts/extensions-001.tex
<http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/latest/cont-tst.zip>
Now my problem is that the font only has ligatures for fi and fl which is making my
life di-ffi-cult. <groan>
Then forget abnout the ligatures ... these two were probably only added
because of 'habbit'. Most people won't notice.
