Is there a way to utilize the fi and fl ligatures in
Ventura? The files are created in WordPerfect where
the extended ASCII characters are present, visible
on the screen, and print. However, when the WP files
are imported into Ventura, the ligatures are replaced
by boxes, and they do not print. The person who has
asked this question has talked to Ventura with no
satisfactory answer ("what is a ligature?" was one of
the responses from customer service). This is all being
done in a DOS environment.
Any and all suggestions, comments, or advice is welcome
and appreciated.
