Which fonts are non-proportional in TextPad ???

Post by gkeeler »

Hi all. I've always used Courrier for my non-proportional font in TextPad, but it looks jittery using my new HD monitor. Are there other fonts in TextPad that are non-proportional ???

Thanks for your help in advance. G

TextPad just offers the fonts that are installed on your system. Here are some non-proportional fonts that you might have:

Courier
Courier New
DejaVu Sans Mono
Lucida Console
Lucida Typewriter
MS Gothic
MS Mincho

Microsoft's Consolas is quite a nice fixed width font.

Another good choice is the DejaVu family of fonts that have already been recommended, although the Unicode capability of these font may not get a heavy workout in TextPad.

Have a look at Inconsolata too in case that suits you.

I'm plainly short of things to keep me busy. :-)
