screenshots

I have attached 4 screenshots that may explain everything for itself.

I got this problem only when working with dejavu serif. no other font shows
that error. dejavu sans ISNT showing that error too. Iam working with indesign
cs5 on windows 7 & most recent version of dejavu.

some lines appear to be broken when i use justified text with dejavu serif.
(see screenshot 1)
broken lines vary with size of textbox
(see screenshot 2)
lines are not broken when i use left-justified text. but indesign shows
problems with the same lines anyhow and adds "undefined character" at the end
of line
(see screenshot 3)
it seems the problem is the combination of "ffi" or "fi". like in the english
word oFFIce or german word oFFIziell. when removing 1 of the characters the
error disapears. also when 1 character is put between, problem is disappearing.
(see screenshot 4)

how can i solve this?

thanks in advance.
matthias
