Now the text itself comes out right into Calibre and conversion to EPUB as well. The latest advice - changing the font - did work out. but I need to double-check the logic in this. Is it really possible that some font can be so screwed up? It is strange that the other document has "tt" problems and the other "ff" problems - that kind of leads to think that it is not a font problem. install the very latest Calibre (and not used Ubuntu Studio default, which is a rather new version and the latest LTS, 20.04.x) I couldn't get any other way, there are many options in Calibre, to work either. I still tried that in Calibre and as you state, by default it should work anyway, if that is the problem. "tt" and "ti" is not about ligeratures - or so they say. Putting that aside, this was test material only and thus not really relevant. I did try what you suggested, among something else in Calibre and that didn't do anything. I tried with an other test material and could find that problem there. It is not about "ff", "fi" and that sort of things. One of them was OK for Amazon Paperback, no problems. However, unfortunately, the answer is no joy in both ways. It seems the defaul option would convert them to separate characters, by maybe you have set an option to keep ligatures? By default, calibre will turn a ligature into the corresponding pair of normal characters. Most readers do not have support for ligatures in their default fonts, so they are unlikely to render correctly. A ligature is a special rendering of a pair of characters like ff, fi, fl et cetera. Preserve ligatures present in the input document. I did a quick google search and found this: The problem you are having is the support for ligatures. The best solution is to work in the other direction.Ĭreate the contents for the e-book in Calibre, then import the contents into Scribus for print layout.
