Default Alining text with the line above in columns per character

It's nothing to do with whether the font is TrueType. The issue is whether
the font is constant-width. Courier and Lucida are common choices; although
in practice it nearly always proves to be irrelevant.

I am trying to use Word as a template for creating a visual print layout
for
an old programming language (RPG). I need to make sure that all text I
type
lines up with the text above i.e. in the same column. True type fonts
don't
appear to let me do this.
