I had the same problem. Any of the "fancy" fonts I tried just wouldn't work at that small size. Abaddon was particularly awful, due to all the curves. It's definitely out.
Blocky, straight-sided fonts might just be the only way to go, unless we increase the overall size of the buttons. I'm not sure that we want to that, though. Big buttons are distracting and ugly.
I'm also left with the problem of what fonts I can and cannot use here. All of my fonts are either the default Windows XP ones, or various freeware fonts I found here and there. The Windows XP fonts are generally pretty boring, but I don't want to use one of the prettier freeware fonts only to find out that they were "ripped off" from a commercial font.
