[XeTeX] Absence of ligatures
Hi all:
I have been working on a text whose main font is DTL Unico:
http://www.dutchtypelibrary.nl/Unico_rdrct.html
I have just noticed that the fi and fl ligatures are not created. To
be more precise: if I compile this document:
\documentclass{article}
\pagestyle{empty}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\begin{document}
\Huge
\fontspec{DTLUnicoST}
fi fl
\end{document}
I don't get the ligatures that I should get. Am I doing something wrong?
Or could it be a flaw within the fonts that I am using?

Hi José Carlos, you should get the ligatures and there is nothing wrong there. I'm afraid that those ligatures might be incorrectly tagged (but since the font is not freely redistributable, you should check it yourself using FontForge or another font editor).

Hi Jose:
Try setting the main font in the preamble with the option
[Mapping=tex=text]:
\setmainfont[Mapping=tex-text]{DTLUnicoST}
That should work ... and you won't need to type the ligatures into the
text itself.

Either the font lacks proper OpenType layout code, or you need to
explicitly select certain OpenType script/language, you can try setting
Language=Latin, Language=Default, Script=Latin or any combination of
them and if it works.

\fontspec{DTLUnicoST}\addfontfeatures{Ligatures={Common,Rare}}
Common ligatures are not by default, Rare ligature should not be a
concern here since f ligature should not be set as Rare ligatures in the
font, if so then it is a bug and the font ought to be fixed.

I notice that there are Type1, TrueType and OpenType versions of this

you have the Type1 version that may be a problem.

If you have otfinfo command line tool (included in texlive), you can
try:
otfinfo -s /path/to/font.otf
Where '/path/to/font.otf' is the full path to your font file, It should
list font supported scripts and languages, then try:
otfinfo --script=SCRIPT -f /path/to/font.otf
Where SCRIPT is one of the returned values of the first command. This
should show what script/language/feature combinations supported by the
font.
