Most, maybe all, of the example words you posted include ligatures, With "financier" for example, the leading "fi" is rendered in PDF and in most typesetting situations as a ligature with the a single complex character representing the "fi' combination.
ï¬ ï¬ I pasted the "fi" and "fl" ligatures in this email. I hope they get through. I don't know the package you are using, I hope it has arguments that tell it about ligatures.
