texgyre termes: no ligatures

texgyre termes: no ligatures

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Hi all,

I think this has been around for a while, but I have never gotten round 
to writing about it: ligatures do not work in tex gyre termes. AFAICS, 
they do work in the other tex gyre fonts. However, they are most needed 
in termes (fi without ligature is really ugly in this one), and they do 
not appear in the current beta. Don't know if this is a luatex or 
ConTeXt issue. Example:

\setupbodyfont[termes,12pt]

\starttext

office fine flat

{\ss office fine flat}

{\switchtobodyfont[pagella] office fine flat}

\stoptext

All best

Thomas

weird ... if you move the \starttypescript [times,termes] in the 
type-imp-texgyre to the end of the typescriptcollection it works ok ... 
maybe because of all that indirectness there (could be a godo reason to 
split up the gyre typescripts)
