...which works fine, but what would I change that to if I wanted to set up a class to just temporarily turn all ligs off for a word or phrase or something?  |
Hey, Psymon:
I don't actually know how you turn off ligs,
selectively, but I do want to warn you, if you publish to Amazon, that ligs can be death on wheels in the LITB. We had a client that had
text disappearing, all ligature characters, in the LITB. Now, here's the "fun" part--we had not enabled ligatures, but the font we used, for her body, did have ligs. Even though it was not mandated--as you are not allowed to do that at Amazon--Amazon "enhanced typeset" it to INCLUDE ligatures, and then, when the book was uploaded at KDP, voila! Missing letters throughout, for every ligature pair.
We never enable ligatures, for all the obvious reasons--older readers and all that--but this is what happened when Amazon "helped us" with the ET. Just FYI.
