Screenshot with an example of the bug

I've noticed this bug in Foobar2000 with the font Tahoma, but it possibly
affects other applications as well.
I'm using a plugin that displays song lyrics. Now, for certain combinations of
characters (such as "fl" or "fi"), the program uses ligatures instead of the
individual characters. In every line with a ligature, the text is aligned to
the left instead of the middle. Furthermore, the ligature characters seem to be
from a different font set and therefore look out of place.
Other fonts such as Verdana don't use ligatures and look fine.
See screenshot for example.
