Font-InDesign

Learning InDesign. We are supposed to pick a font to study. I narrowed it down to 3 Caslon, Baskerville, Bodoni. I was looking at Gordy because I wanted a 1930s type and earlier Jenson and Rockwell. What’s a good one that’s used but not heavily used?

To study what about the font ?
Why InDesign ?
“Appropriate (was ’good’) fonts” are tools designed/used for their function (write words) and art is included.

Pick a font. Make a Poster in InDesign.
Why InDesign? Because it’s not a class in Illustrator or Quark. I’m sure the instructor assigns the same project in the other software classes. I wanted a font that wasn’t heavily used and looked nice.
