Are you using another font for headers? If so, you should be able to use
it for emphasis without the result appearing too jarring . In fact, it can
improve the layout considerably.
(I'm assuming, of course, that the header and text fonts were carefully
matched)
We use Verdana for everything, except where Courier is required for
command-line information, and except for some link "bubbles" (to topic
groups) which are in Garamond.
