  It seems that there are a few community members who are having this problem https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/missing-a-few-fs?replies=12#post-2545544

  Changing theme and/or font seems to have resolved the issue. If you have any further question about this please post in that thread as it has been marked for Staff assistance.

  A glitch with liguatures (like fl and fi) was introduced in the Merriweather font a few days ago. According to the font’s developer, a fix will be pushed through to Google Fonts today (Jan. 25) in the morning, Pacific time:

  https://github.com/EbenSorkin/Merriweather/issues/16

  Temporary workarounds include:

  1. Add the following custom CSS, if you have access to the upgrade:

  html {
    -webkit-font-variant-ligatures: none;
    -moz-font-variant-ligatures: none;
    font-variant-ligatures: none;
  }

  OR,

  2. In your Customizer’s Fonts panel, choose another font.
