Thanks! I'll try it out when I get a chance.

No. Do you mean just to see how it handles the letter-spacing attribute? I mentioned in the opening post that I began with a LaTeX version of the file, and so I already have a PDF version I'm happy with.
Newer versions of Firefox do automatic ligature substitution with opentype fonts. I'll check how it handles it, but I'm fairly sure it does it properly, or I'd have noticed by now.
