I was using the Pascal reference manual, and found that 'fi' was replaced

Clearly the export as HTML from LaTeX doesn't support the 'fi'
ligature. The 'f' and 'i' becomes one character. The actual LaTeX
documentation (*.tex) files has it as 'f' and 'i', so there is no
need for fixing the documentation - it's just the HTML export that is
buggy.
Here is an example of what should have happened.

I am aware of the ligature problem; The main problem is that it requires
re-configuration of tex4ht to fix it. I did it once, maybe an update
destroyed this work :/
The good news is that the PDF documentation is correct, and
is still - as it always been - the preferred format.
