In order to do this, you need to use a monospaced font such as Courier New
or Lucida Sans Typewriter. Most TrueType fonts are proportional.

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.
