I work at a consulting engineering firm and write a lot of reports that are read by the public. I have an opportunity to recommend a different font for all of our written documents and am looking for something more modern/fresh than Times New Roman. Also open to recommendations for purpose specific communities about typography/fonts.
CMU Serif is always a good choice imo.
Times, which I think NeurIPS uses, is pretty solid.
Latin Modern Roman is another good one, used by TMLR.
IBM Plex just looks so nice too.
