In typography, a ligature occurs where two or more letterforms are written or printed as a unit. Generally, ligatures replace characters that occur next to each other when they share common components. There are a few common ligatures you will come across — though it is worth noting that not all typefaces include ligature glyphs. Again, the glyphs palette will show you any ligatures that are available. The common ones — ‘fi’ and ‘fl’ — are often designed to get around what would otherwise be a ‘clash’ of letterform components. The tittle on the ‘i’, for example, can in some typefaces clash with the terminal of the lowercase ‘f’. The ligatures below are found in Garamond: Some typefaces are designed with extensive ligature options. Zuzana Licko’s ‘Mrs Eaves Just Lig’ is a prime example — it’s a subset of ‘Mrs Eaves’ which the designer can tap in to as needed to add a quirky personality, or perhaps to suggest a ‘crafted’ quality.
