Wrong ligature 'text' for 'fl' about eb-garamond HOT 6 CLOSED

I can’t confirm this.
This is what I copy&paste from the generated pdf: Fl Fi ffi fl fi
What pdf-viewer do you use?

from eb-garamond.

pdftotext and zathura. Both produced the same result (I guess zathura calls pdftotext to copy text, so the two are actually the same in copying the text). If I switch to the built-in font, then everything seems to be OK. Since you could not reproduce the problem, maybe there's something wrong with the AUR package? Or maybe the newly updated lualatex bin could be the culprit?

EDIT: I didn't find anything suspicious in PKGBUILD for EB Garamond. So I really have no idea here. I never closely examined the generated pdf before, so I'm not sure if lualatex is the culprit.

EDIT 2: In my first post, I forgot to mention that I'm using 0.015c, not the git version of the font. Sorry about that.

Ok, so you are on arch, then probably we use the same version of pdftotext.
My output is:

Fl Fi ffi fl fi

The lualatex version I’m using is 0.76 from TL2013 pretest so that might be different from your setup. I’ll test again tomorrow on a different system.

My lualatex is the stock 0.70.2 version from texlive-bin. So possibly a lualatex issue. The thing that confuses me is that the issue is font-specific. If I switch to 'Adobe Minion Pro', the issue would be gone, but I haven't test other fonts yet. (EB Garamond is my primary font for my humanity homework, and Minion Pro the back up).

It’s curious that Minion doesn’t show that issue. It has probably to do with the fact, that Minion encodes almost all alternate and ligature glyphs (which is deprecated). Anyway, I could reproduce it with TL2012. The output of its xelatex is even worse. none of the ligatures is copied correctly.
All this has been fixed in xelatex and lualatex in TL2013 pretest.

Satisfied. I primarily use lualatex because xelatex cannot 'map' correct characters for ligatures at all in TL2012. So it should be a bug with lualatex. Not related to EB Garamond. I will probably switch to manually installed TL.
