I'm sorry I can't answer your ligatures question, but yes, the font
substitution is normal, and annoying.
Most of us detect it's happened and reject the result.

I'm curious about the "Unless I explicitly set the attribute
NSFontAttributeName" part... you have a method for getting the
substitution not to happen? I'd like to see how you do that.
