: Issue with Calibri typeface in Photoshop CS4 I have a very instersting issue with Photoshop CS4 and the Calibri typeface that I was hoping somebody would be able to help with. Certain characters
I have a very instersting issue with Photoshop CS4 and the Calibri typeface that I was hoping somebody would be able to help with. Certain characters when typed next to each other produce an odd effect that shows them connected, but when typed separately or with other characters they look fine.
See below for the examples that I've found: "ct", "ck", "ch".
I'm new so I can't directly post an image, but you can view the example here: Calibri Font Issue

As per my answer at Do discretionary ligatures hold any other purpose than visual?:
Standard ligatures and discretionary ligatures are features of a particular font ... The font designer determines that "standard" ligatures should be used to replace certain letter pairs/triples, whereas "discretionary" ones may be used. The automatic application of either can be specified by the end designer in software ... The reasons why ligatures exist or are used at all is probably better handled as a separate question.
In the Character Panel flyout Menu, with the type layer highlighted, Under "Opentype" uncheck "Discretionary Ligatures".
Screenshot is from CS5 but it should be in the same location.
