Monica--

If you do choose to mix fonts in headings, you will need to be very picky about your choice of fonts. As Fred says, the effects in TOC and elsewhere is not even the whole story. A mix of Time (sigh), or Palatino, or Garamond and Courier may be tolerable in body-font sizes, but look hideous in heading sizes.

Thanks everyone for the input. It hadn't occurred to me to use the
same typographic conventions that I use in running text in the headings
as well; that seems like an easy way to address the issue.
