Severity: minor

make -C doc/lispref pdf

    l.1202: Unicode char @u8:fi not defined for Texinfo
    l.1206: Unicode char @u8:fi not defined for Texinfo
    l.1207: Unicode char @u8:fi not defined for Texinfo

and indeed those characters are missing in the output PDF.
The message refers to the 3 instances of ligature "fi" in
strings.texi around line 1200, node "Case Conversion".
