 Well, I use almost the same curve - but in case with Taz - that's one of my all-time favourites, that's why I didn't wondered long. And I definitely think that the small type is Interstate Regular Condensed :)
Apart from that, being a smartass always helps - I searched for allpoint, found their website, downloaded the PDF brochure that's on their homepage, opened it with Adobe Reader, which told me that they're using Interstate - simple as that.

Wicked, embed means to place within. The object of embedding is to display an uninstalled font..When a font is embedded properly, it becomes a part of the document itself, Like in an Adobe Acrobat Reader..pdf file.
In MS Word, from the persepective of the viewer, it's as if the font is installed in the page, rather than in the Fonts folder in the Control Panel.

[quote:ffcb9999a9="JK"]I looked at the pdf file it gives me this

That's a pitty. MSTT311..... indicates that the pdf file was generated without embedding the truetype font and the pdf reader just substitutes the font. Therefore the Á for the H-underscore and the ? for the b-underscore.
Anyone out there knows about a font that has a H-underscore for character 0192 (C0h) and a b-underscore for character 0196 (C4h) :?: :?: :?:
On the guest's remark: You may very well be right that it is a phonetic font. I just have never seen a stress-mark being uesd wit consonants but I'm certainly no expert on this (to say the least).

Scratching the sofa, I've been staring at this for quite a while. I am fully with Tashini Jones.

First of all, and far more important than anything else, if you are to submit a three hundred [I thought I spell it out] pages résumé - that is a book - the typeface you use must be legible. Very legible. And with this amount of text that almost outrules any design-like type. In my opinion - with this amount of text - it also outrules sans-serifs.
I am with the Swallow when he suggests types with a rather high x-height, giving you the possibility to use a [slightly] condensed face so you don't have to go under 11 points - without adding even more pages yet still maintaining legibility.
"formal but with that touch of design"? There are many. I'll do one suggestion, the Salernomi J by Julius Thyssen. Freeware, yet well designed for a change. Follow the download link and get the TTF pack [and whatever else you like on that page].
I also think that more important than the type you choose, is the page lay-out. Choose your margins carefully, justify the text and try to avoid line lengths of more than 2/3 of the page width - as if you are inviting the reader to use the margin for notes.
To quote Tashini Jones again; Good luck!!
