Hi Mark.

Sorry, it was a bit vague. I printed off the 2012 paper directly from the VCAA site and anywhere that 'fi' was written, it disappeared. 
For example 'Certificate' on the front page was just "Certi  cate". It was like that all through the paper.
Apparently, it is not doing this in Adobe. (Only in "Preview" which is a Mac app.)
Very weird. I thought VCAA were trying to stop us from copying them O.o
Turns out it may be just a program glitch. 
Many thanks,
Simone

Hi Simone... are you referring to the VCAA exams?

And I'm not sure exactly what the 'fi's and 'fl's are.

Hi all,

I have just printed off some previous years' exam papers for my kids to use for revision over the break.
The 2012 paper is missing the 'fi's and 'fl's.  

I thought this was just for the SD paper, but just printed off a 2012 Bus Man paper for one of my homeroom kids. 
Same thing. 

Any ideas how to avoid this? Why have the papers available if they can't be easily read?

Many thanks,
Simone
