Lots of different threads on the forums here (Sony had a good one if I remember) with different suggestions. Different fonts may get you the contrast you're looking for.

The resolution is that fonts should end with -Bold, -BoldItalic, -Italic, or alternatively, b, i, z.
For instance, I am using a font from Google Fonts ( http://www.google.com/webfonts ) called Lora. I have the following files:
Code:
Lora-Bold.ttf
Lora-BoldItalic.ttf
Lora-Italic.ttf
Lora-Regular.ttf
