Hi,
how does this substitution with ligatures work in
InDesign, automatically while filling text frames with
text, or by explicitely launching a special menu
option?  IMHO, the latter seems to be more sane, and
it could work similar to the way the Scribus
hyphenator and Short Words plug-in work now. It would
be irreversible, but the user would have the choice,
and in case he wouldn't understand what he's doing, he
could even have to confirm a "Yes/No/Cancel/Do you
want to backup your file first" question before doing
it.

cheers
Maciej
