(x) Elegant serif text face - H&FJ Requiem {Yves}

I feel like I should know this, but everything I thought it was...wasn’t. Can anyone help? It appears the bowl of the lc “P” extends back past the vertical. I’m stumped.

I believe that’s Centaur.

I just tried it on your suggestion, but the “h” is different and the cap to lower case height relationship is off as well. Thanks, though.

Could it be Nicolas Jenson?

Try Adobe Jenson, then.

Yeah it’s a Jenson for sure. Seems to actually match Adobe better.

I agree. I think it’s closer to Adobe. I knew it was a Jenson, but didn’t have time for the comparison!

This is Hoefler & Frere-Jones’ Requiem.

Sorry it took me so long to get to your thread, but I’m still catching up after yesterday’s flood of new ID requests. I’m now going backwards through some 100+ threads to tie up any loose ends.

You all are awesome. Thanks!

Uh Oh, will I be banned for mistaking an Arrighi for a Jenson? :)

You, Sir, will have your pantaloons set on fire for that! :^P
