Thank you so much Christopher for taking the time to do this, I was
out today and just got back from work. I will definitely write to
techsupport to know how this feature is supposed to work in normal
conditions, and what is not working as expected.

I only tested fi, because that was the ligature that appeared in
Dennis' example.
I used the default lyric font from Finale's Maestro Default File,
which is Times 12 plain.
I went back to check other ligatures, and apparently fi and fl are
the only ones substituted. Ae and oe are not, though I can type
opt-' and opt-q to force those last two, as expected. Typing op-
sh-5 for fi forces that one, and opt-sh-6 forces fl. All forced
ligatures are preserved when exporting as EPS, whereas the fl and
fi that are automatically substituted by Finale get stripped. Times
does not appear to have ligatures for ff, ffl, nor ffi, so I didn't
check them.
I should mention that if you use the OSX's Print To PDF function,
then it shows up exactly as in the Finale file. It is only Export
EPS that strips the automatic ligatures.
