Interestingly, I have an affected version of Palatino on both my Macs, and I have never installed OS 9 or specifically added any fonts to either.
Where might this Palatino have come from?

The behavior is coming from old versions of Classic fonts like Chicago designed for QDGX.

I have never heard of ProFont misbehaving.

You should be able to use newer versions that have fixes (ones shipped with OS 9).

Hi there! (Especially Doug ;-) )

if you enter "o/" or "l/" in a standard textview then in certain fonts (e.g. Chicago, Palatino, some version of the ProFont) it will be merged to a striked-out o and striked-out l, although the text in the textstorage is still o/ or l/. I turned of ligatures, which had no effect. So what exactly is this behaviour and how can i turn it off?

Best,
  dom
