What fonts should I use for....
I'm trying to fix the fonts on ObjectDock to make them look like the font used on a Mac dock. What font should I use?

Hard to say what fonts to use as they *all* look bad on there. As with all modding, its a case of keep trying until something is or at least appears to be right (at least to you)

I disagree, a dock with non mac-eque fonts usually looks quite odd. Plus, if you're going for the 100% look, then fonts are going to be extremely important, especially with macs because their fonts are so smooth and recognisable.

ClearType?
Won't ClearType do the trick with the fonts? It clearly has good shadowing and texture.
