Post by: Shamsuddin on March 01, 2014, 03:54:54 PM
Typographic ligature

In writing and typography, a typographic ligature occurs where two or more graphemes or letters are joined as a single glyph. Ligatures usually replace consecutive characters sharing common components and are part of a more general class of glyphs called "contextual forms", where the specific shape of a letter depends on context such as surrounding letters or proximity to the end of a line.
