It's rather difficult... AGaramond is a XVIth century reviewal, so there is
no good choice.

Try Syntax (or Gill sans) for the sf family and Letter Gothic for the tt

It's quite normal for a Garamond... Of course, it becomes impossible to use
cm in math, and adobe garamond in text... If you want maths, you have to
install Adobe Garamond math fonts with fontinst...
