Missing 'fi' in UGLE Communications?

This may have been raised before, but a search did not bring anything up.

As secretary of my lodge, I receive the UGLE Communications giving the Report from the previous meeting and the details of the upcoming one.

Perhaps it's only me, but when I download these documents (PDFs), I find that the 'Paper of Business' documents seems to have the letters 'fi' missing from all occasions that it occurs in the document.

For example, the word 'first' will appear as ' rst', and the word 'officer' will appear as 'of cer'.

Is it just me, or does everyone see this?

If it is not just me, why hasn't Grand Lodge corrected this anomaly? I've been secretary for nearly two years now, and it has been the case in every document I have downloaded.

Any comments?

Have you queried it with Grand Lodge? Alternatively, have you got the latest version of Acrobat Reader?

Or try a different pdf reader - I use PDF-Xchange, which is excellent.

I second that. I use their editor.
