Seriously Jon? Have you tried Google? Whole lot of references to ligatures and I'm sure one of them is at least as authoritative, if not more, than what you would get here. The first hit (wikipedia) looks pretty comprehensive.

There is no compete list. The font designer can design a ligature for any two (or more) characters if they wish.

It sounds like calibre is trying to do the right thing by including all ligatures in a font that contain letters in the output file. But it's just not working right yet.

That was my 1st thought as well. That it had something to do with writing a murder mystery or something.
