old-style numerals

In Pages 11, can I ask for old-style numerals? I'm using Minion Pro, which offers both lining numerals and old-style. I started by copying in an old doc, in which all the numerals were old-style. But when I type a numeral, it comes as a lining numeral, and they look really weird together. I found instructions to do this on older versions of pages (Show Fonts: Typography) but v. 11 doesn't seem to have that pathway.

Minion Pro is not a standard installed font on Big Sur or Monterey. In Pages, when you press ⌘T, the Fonts panel will open, and if your version of Minion Pro supports the Typography panel, it is accessible from ⋯⃝ > Typography. Not every font will feature items on that Typography panel but Hoefler Text does and has an old-style selection.
