I have just updated my new KPW (7th gen) and loaded a sample custom ebook to check if ligatures are supported.

Nothing changed compared to the previous firmware version.

Is there anything that I need to add to the CSS to enable the ligatures? I cannot see them neither with the custom embedded font nor any other font available by default on Kindle, including Bookerly.

I tried adding the following lines:
-webkit-font-feature-settings: "liga";
font-feature-settings: "liga";
font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;

and the ligatures work in Sigil, but once an epub is converted to azw3 and sent to Kindle, they do not work.
