Unfortunately it's bitmap, but even so if you zoom to about 1000% you
will clearly notice that the Palladio ligatures have much less
"ligature pixels" than the Pagella. The latter features a solid black
line in the 'ff' ligature, and an almost 'continuous' line for the
'fi' ligature, while Palladio features a completely discontinuous 'fi'
symbol.
