Print from Browser produces "ft" and "ti" as single characters in PDF

Question

I'm printing a document from the browser (Firefox and Chrome) and it is merging all instances of "ft" or "ti" into single special characters. This breaks machine-reading of the PDF along with copy and paste. Might there be a CSS option that can disable this kind of thing?

Answer 1

Turns out they're called "Ligatures"

CSS: Disable font ligatures in all browsers

font-variant-ligatures: none;
