<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Thank you for your response. The solution is probably with the ligature, but I have no experience with dealing with that, or the font mappings in XEP transformation. I tried a different transformation and the
words “first” and “fire” are okay in the PDF now. So I’ll stick with the new transformation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">When transforming using XEP and Oxygen 16.1 every occurrence of the letters “fi” (as in “first” and “filter”) are being dropped. XEP has no problem with upper and lower case “Fi” though. It doesn’t happen with Apache transformation. My
