-1000 is the default (representing design size)

texconfig.max_print_line   = 100000

you need to locate the lookup associated to the 'liga' feature and use 
that one in reverse lookups, i.e. at f_f there is a lookup that shows 
what components make up the ligature

(you could consider ignoring the lookup and just apply certain ligature 
rules anyway, say f_f, f_i etc)
