If there is a suitable 2D option in the same family then consider using it, but be wary of using the face style of a chromatic font alone as its spacing may be set to accommodate its extrude style. However, avoid pairing with a typeface that looks similar but not quite the same. The usual guide of not pairing two sans-serif or serif fonts is less relevant because of the extra dimension with 3D fonts. 3D fonts may be based on serif and san-serif designs, so look primarily at its face when pairing. Perhaps something simple and elegant to offset the volume of your headline font. Many successful pairs feature a serif typeface with a sans serif typeface. Too much contrast can cause friction, so opt for just a few points of difference. The simplest option is to select a 2D font with appealing contrast. Pairing typefaces that contrast in weight, scale, width, and/or spacing can eliminate monotony and visually divide the text making it easier for readers to understand hierarchy. As your 3D font is undoubtedly your headline font, your partner will be for straplines or body copy. Pairing 3D typefaces, just like pairing regular type, is often based on instincts, taste and a little know-how rather than hard rules. Example 3D font pairings: Brim Combined 2 with Franklin Gothic URW Book, and Rig Solid Bold with Adelle Condensed Light
