Hi, sometime between version 2015.08.05 and 2016.04.10 the handling of certain ligatures changed (sorry, I don't have intermediate versions to test with). The issue is the ligatures no longer copy/paste as the original two characters, which also breaks text searched of the pdf. Instead they copy as a single glyph.
I'm seeing the problem with "ti" and "fj", while others like "ffi", "fi", and "ff" are fine in both versions.
I see this using Calibri (other fonts I tried don't support those two ligatures):
\starttypescript[cleartype] \definetypeface[\typescriptone][ss][sans][calibri][default] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[cleartype] \setupbodyfont[cleartype,sans,10pt] \starttext ffi\par fi\par ff\par fi\par ti\par fj\par \stoptext
Thank you.
not all pdf viewers can do that well, unless it's broken, context outputs the tounicode vectors needed for it Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
