This should change the typeface of your TeX-generated text to match  
what you're using in your Intaglio graphics.

If you want to do the opposite--keep the body text as it is, and  
change the typeface in the Intaglio graphics to match it better--you  
could try using Latin Modern in Intaglio. The LM fonts aren't  
provided with OS X, but I believe i-Installer will provide them if  
you ask it nicely... others here can give more precise instructions,  
I'm sure.
