What I see is called standard typographic ligature: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typographic_ligature "The feature replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature is applied by default." Any of the advanced Open Type typographic layout features can be enabled or disabled by user or application using a tag system. Additional Technical Documentation is not included in the port. It's under a different license and I can't include it myself.
