Many thanks for your really helpful reply, Wolfgang.

I have been searching for something similar, but I wasn’t able to find it.

Alphabetic presentation forms also contain Latin ligatures (ff, fi, fl, ffi,
ffl, ſt, st), ConTeXt seems not to be affected by this.

Many thanks again for your help,


Pablo
