OpenType feature "Contextual Alternates"

flip

Hello,

I have a question regarding the OpenType feature "Contextual Alternates". Is it correct that this is activated by default in programs such as Apple Pages '09, Apple Keynote '09, MS PowerPoint:mac 2008, etc. but in others such as MS Word:mac 2008 not?

How can I de-activate the behavior in some software as the above to avoid that the letters are displayed differently across different programs? I would like to de-activate Contextual Alternates to show the standard letters ...

Many thanks for any support or ideas,

Philip

A recent discussion, but I don't think it answers your question. http://typophile.com/node/80515

You might get a better answer if you mention the software/platform you are specifically using.
