Seriously, what is your essay about? The font choice should reflect the tone of the essay, while at the same time maintain readability. Try to limit yourself to 1 font if you can, and 2 at the most (one font for your headlines, and the other for your body text).

I think the fact that many of you seem to believe there's no such thing as a design consideration for printed text really says something about the quality of work you must produce.

it´s your brief that sucked buster. if i wanted somebody´s feedback, i´d make sure to provide the people i´m asking with proper context for the problem. not acting like a dick usually also helps a lot.
