I’ve been trying to use Greek ligatures with the font Alfios in the version available here. In particular, I’m trying to get the o-u ligature as can be seen in the image — that I get from MS Word.

However, when I put in the code below, I get the following image as output.

Why does this not work? Any ideas?

The solution in Historic font and missing ligatures appears related, but that’s a hack where you redefine the ligatures. I’m just trying to use the relevant font feature.

  Thank you! That’s solved it. Just a clarification about the syntax: how does the script marker work? Does it activate ligatures just for Greek text, or does it say that everything following will be in Greek?
