If you're using Octavio Pardo's version of EB Garamond (
https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12), then these ligatures are
covered (along with the Th ligature) by the "dlig" (discretionary
ligatures) feature, so you'll need to disable that. Unfortunately, this
will also disable the Th ligature. This is a known, open issue for the
font: https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12/issues/20.

I hope this helps.

It does help.  Thanks.

But how do I turn that font feature off in ConTeXt?

I think it would look something like

\definefontfamily[english] [rm] [EB Garamond] [features={default,dlig=no}]

Ah, ok.

Here is a minimal NONWORKING example: the resulting PDF shows the ct and st
ligatures.  What commands should I use to turn them off?

\definefontfamily[english] [rm] [ebgaramond] [features={default,dlig=no}]
\setupbodyfont[ebgaramond,10pt]
\starttext
ct st

You'll need to use the alias for the font family, as follows:

\definefontfamily[english] [rm] [ebgaramond] [features={default, hlig=no}]

\setupbodyfont[english,10pt]

\starttext

ct st

Hi Kurt,

here you have the sample that should work:

  %~ \definefontfamily[ebgaramond] [rm] [ebgaramond]

    %~ [features={default,dlig=no}]

  \definefontfeature[english][dlig=no]

  \definefontfamily[ebgaramond] [rm] [EB Garamond]

    [features={default,english}]

  \setupbodyfont[ebgaramond,10pt]

  \starttext

  ct st

  \stoptext

BTW, on my system the default doesn’t get discretionary ligatures.

Your sample didn’t work because the identifier for \definefontfamily
(english) was different from the one used in \setupbodyfont. (If they
don’t match, it cannot work.)

Another cleaner approach is to define font features to invoke them in
\definefontfamily. This method seems cleaner to me.

I hope it helps,

Pablo

One of these examples where opensource fails ...

https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12
https://github.com/georgd/EB-Garamond

A while ago I replaced AB on my machine in oirdert to test some issue so 
now I have to replace it again? Which one is the real one? Which one is 
the original? Which one are we supposed to support / configure?

\definefontfeature[whatever][default][rlig=yes]
% \definefontfeature[whatever][default][rlig=yes,dlig=yes] % those st 
and ct ligs

\definefontfamily [english] [rm] [EB Garamond]   [features=whatever]
\definefontfamily [english] [mm] [Stix Two Math]

\setupbodyfont[english]

\starttext
     fi fl ffi ffl ct st
\stoptext

Using the ones pointed from google fonts.

Re: How do I get rid of the ct and st ligatures in EBGaramond?

[T. Kurt Bond]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2483 bytes --]

Interesting.

Here is a an example that sort of works, Variant 1:

\definefontfamily[english] [rm] [ebgaramond] [features={default, dlig=no}]
\setupbodyfont[english,10pt]
\starttext

Variant 1:
Does this look like EBGaramond?

fi fl ffi ffl ct st
\stoptext


However, it turns of *all* the ligatures.

Here is an example that works as expected, Variant 2:

\definefontfeature[english][dlig=no]
\definefontfamily[ebgaramond] [rm] [EB Garamond]
                 [features={default,english}]
\setupbodyfont[ebgaramond,10pt]

\starttext

Variant 2:
Does this look like EBGaramond?

fi fl ffi ffl ct st
\stoptext


It turns off just the ct and st ligatures.

I've attached the generated PDF files for both variants.

I agree, this solution does seem cleaner to me.  Thanks!

No, it turns off other ligatures as well, so is not a generally workable 
solution. (Try *fj* and *ſi*, for two examples.)

Hello all,

I am the one who posted issue #20 for the font back in January 2018. The 
report simply states that there is no way to get dlig without also 
getting hlig, and includes an easily reproducible demonstration (using 
LibreOffice on the assumption that it is more accessible for testing). 
Since then, there has been a PR submitted. Crickets. No action.

As to which version of the font should be used, Georg Duffner 
transferred stewardship of the font to Octavio Pardo in 2017 or so. 
Pardo added support for faces beyond roman and italic (bold, semibold, 
extrabold). Some work was done a couple of years ago to support variable 
fonts, but nothing that can be used has yet come out of that effort. To 
a casual observer, the development and maintenance appears to be 
abandoned. I am sure that many would be happy to see work on this font 
resume, but projects like this are difficult to take over and support is 
thin.

So, if you can find that satisfies your requirements as it is, use it. 
The Duffner versions (pre-Pardo) do not have this particular issue, and 
if you do not need emboldened faces or other updates Pardo may have 
implemented, that should work. Or look elsewhere. Although the range and 
licensing of EB Garamond was certainly attractive, there are plenty of 
Garamonds in the world.
