Fixed width fonts are fonts that have a consistent character width, meaning all characters take up the same amount of space, regardless of its shape or width. They are also known as monospaced fonts or non-proportional fonts.
Here are some examples of fixed-width fonts:
• Courier
• Menlo
• Consolas
• Monaco
• Andale Mono
• ProFont
• Source Code Pro
• Lucida Console
• Inconsolata
Fixed-width fonts are commonly used in coding and programming as they are easier to read. As they take up the same horizontal space, they create more room for the code, allowing for a better visualization of the code’s structure.
One of the best things about these fonts is that they are very legible even at smaller sizes, making them an ideal choice for web design, long-form writing, and other uses.
