![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In this example you can see the different glyphs used in the same word, one with Contextual Alternates off and one with it on. Use the Contextual Alternates toggle button on the InfoBar to turn the alternates on and off for any character selection. Contextual Alternates Some fonts provide alternative glyph designs for the same ligatures. In the following example, with Contextual Ligatures on the character pair “ft” appears using a different glyph, depending on the other characters around it. The option to turn on Contextual Ligatures is an addition to the Ligatures menu in v16. So the actual ligature used for a given character combination may vary depending on what characters precede and follow the combination that is replaced. But OpenType also includes more complex substitution rules to determine which ligature glyphs should be used, where the substitution depends not only on the actual characters replaced but also on the context in which those characters appear. or example with ligatures switched on the two character sequence could be replaced by the single ligature glyph. Contextual Ligatures Earlier versions of Designer recognize sequences of two or more characters that can be replaced by a single ligature glyph that is provided by the font for that particular character combination. This makes it easier to see the effects the different options will have on your text, if you choose to apply them.
