Description: When using a font that is full of ligatures (as in, most of the glyphs used are ligatures), setting the size at something like 300 will cause symbols to start merging. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install the font at https://ampersandia.net/raiaqsuq.otf 2. Write "laiq" and set its font size at 300 Actual Results: The symbols for "la" and "iq" merge as if they were one, there has to be a space between them to make them appear as different glyphs Expected Results: The symbols for both syllables should as separate symbols, without need for a space in between to separate them Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: This seems to be related to a bug I encountered where the font appears to have strange spacing and new symbols that are not in the original text. I don't know how to recreate this one. I couldn't find a way to check if OpenGL is enabled, I followwed these steps https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/OpenGL#How_to_enable.2Fdisable_OpenGL but I didn't find any "Use OpenGL for all rendering", instead I found a "Use Skia for all rendering". The bug still happened with skia disabled
Please retest with a 7.1.3.2 build just released, x-scale of glyphs got some attention, may improve things here.

The paragraph you shared mentions that fonts with many ligatures will display incorrectly when used at large sizes. Ligature is the combination of two or more characters into a single character in a font. Improper display may occur when the font size is large because small details of the ligature are not displayed clearly like IQ test free - https://iqtestfree.io/. This can be a problem when using large fonts in graphic design or printing.
