Is not a bad font when used as intended.

Some versions of the font also include the alternate glyphs, but since it
was in the pre-opentype era, they are encoded on the less used slots
(infinity, lozenge, etc...) and often ignored.
The E+F version has the alternates in a separate font.

Adobe, a long time ago, has issued a nicely designed promotional specimen
of Trajan, Papirus and and third one, Herculanum or Lithos, if my memory is
not failing me. The 3 typefaces where described as an "Collection of
ancient revivals" or something similar...
