Both 'fi' and 'ff' character sequences are eaten.  This makes the word
'file' '  le' and 'efficient' becomes 'e  icient'.

I'm using a LaserJet IID with a Super Cartridge, which contains all the
fonts I'm ever likely to use.  Does someone have a solution to this
problem?  A patch?  Some hints?  Other than this small problem, I'm
very impressed with the output produced by the LaserJet.
