Richard,
FMP stores what it gets, it does not "make" ligatures, they come from
the outside.
What is the source of your text?
How does it get into FMP?
I bet "fi" and "fl" are ligatures before they get in FMP.

Richard S. Russell inquires:
Anyone know how to turn off ligatures in FileMaker Pro?
There seem to be 2 that I can't get rid of: "fi" and "fl". It's
particularly irritating when these things appear in supposedly
monospace fonts like Courier or Monaco, which I usually only haul
out when I specifically WANT each and every character to take up
exactly 1 space.
I've discovered how to turn off ligatures in some of my other
programs (like TextEdit and Nisus Writer Pro), but there seems to
be no corresponding controls in FMP, and the "Help" feature
provided no hits for likely keywords.
