Q: Pages 5.6.2 not using ligatures
Since updating to Pages 5.6.2 the program no longer displays ligatures. Remove Ligatures in the format inspector is not checked and Ligatures is checked in the Document inspector. Doesn't matter which fonts I use, .ttf or .otf. These worked fine in the previous version.
The real odd thing is, Pages 4.3 now does not apply appropriate kerning for .otf typefaces but does with .ttf. And, 4.3 uses the correct ligatures.
Very frustrating as I'm picky about typography.
I'm on the latest GM of macOS.
