Now it's all clear to me. Thanks Wolfgang and Taco. I'll report the bug to the linux libertine project. -- Marco ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

ConTeXt expects for fonts to have ligatures in the default script of the font which is for the case for the libertine fonts except for the bolditalic style where you need the latin script to have ligatures, for me this is a bug in the font and you should make a bug report.

[NTG-context] Ligatures on Linux Libertine Bold Italic
Hello there.
I'm pretty new to ConTeXt and I'm really impressed by your work. So a
huge thanks is due.
Anyway. Today I found that Linux Libertine Bold Italic doesn't create
the ligatures. These work on XeTeX. I took a look at
/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/type-otf.mkiv where the libertine
typescript is defined, but I couldn't find anything wrong. The fonts are
the one shipped with the latest updated TeXlive 2010 (they are correctly
loaded).
With other fonts the ligatures for Bold Italic are created, so I'm a bit
lost. Is my setup broken somehow? Or the fonts are broken? Or is it a
bug?
Thanks in advance.
