Hi there,
Can anyone tell me the name of the serif typeface used in Hoefler & Frere-Jones website http://typography.com/ in the section that reads “What’s New: From a crisp family of display faces to the four grades of text face engineered and tested for the demanding environment of newspaper printing, Mercury is a type family designed to meet the needs of the most exacting typographer. Its sixty-nine styles include all the trimmings, right down to 74 symbols designed to thrive at small sizes”? I don’t think it is Mercury (is it Georgia?).
Thanks
