I actually do like Hoefler, and I would like to use it in TeX. I heard
the Type 1 version is something like $300. I can't afford to spend that
kind of money on a font, nor do I think I should need to given it's
installed on my OS. What am I missing?
And how can I find out about converting Hoefler for use in TeX :-).
