I was working on a vocal piece this week and noticed that Finale 2006
is automatically transforming common ligatures (like fi to fi for
example). Once an eps is exported into a DTP program, the ligatures
are gone. Is this a bug, and can someone replicate this problem?

Ligatures are automatically added in the Finale file, no way that I can

Before jumping to conclusions about whether that really is a ligature
or is actually simply two characters kerned too closely so they appear
in the eps as a ligature, I would suggest that some other letter
combinations be added to verse 2 and 3 and 4, right beneath
In fact I was talking about text ligatures, not the music.
You can look at the example on the link given in the original post to
see it.

This is interesting, because I've gone through a lot of trouble to
get ligatures in Finale, and never found any way to do so. What

text. One is with ligature character and the othe with the two letters.

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

Hmm, further testing. This same effect occurs in text expressions as

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.
