  -> I cannot remember seeing "if." used for "i følge", but the asker did not supply sufficient context. "I flg" is certainly an abbreviation that is used for "i følge", but in general I would be wary of Microsoft's spellchecker.

Det finnes mange eksempler på bruk av \"i.f.\" i dokumenter som er utlagt på nettsteder:

Også medvirkning til andre gjerningspersoners overtredelse av §§ 281-286 er straffbart, jfr. § 288, første ledd i.f.

http://odin.dep.no/oed/norsk/publ/utredninger/NOU/038005-020...
§ 39a 1. ledd, 2. ledd § 4-8
