Fonts - A Little Help
I am using XP Home
Office 2003 I have looked all over for this answer: Which fonts in Word 2003 are non-proportional. Would prefer one that I can use to generate code and differenates between a 0 (zero) and an O (letter 0) etc. Any help gratefully appreciated Slick32 |

Courier or Courier New. You would still have to be careful to distinguish
between a zero and an uppercase o. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Gosh - I hark back to the days of C/PM, when I could instruct my printer to print the numeral 0 either with or without a diagonal slash, and I wish that my prefered font, Arial, had the slashed zero today... Blessed be, for sure... |

I don't have the best eyesight but *usually* a zero is narrower than an O.
And if you are creating the document, the zero is beside the 9, the O is beside the P. (I see that in your post you used a zero in "(letter 0)".) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Slick32" wrote in message newsTLrf.5931$mK.1259@dukeread03...

All fonts distinguish between 0 and O. Courier New is the monospaced font
you're sure to have. You may also have Letter Gothic or Lucida Typewriter. -- Suzanne S.

Andale mono has a distinguisned zero and is monospaced. The distinction is
made with a 'dot' in the zentre of the zero. The fon is not now as easy to find as it once was. However, it is part of a package which is intended to allow the MS Hyperterminal program be used with the French Mintel service. You can get the package from the MS FTP server, extract the files and install just the required font. FTP://ftp.microsoft/com/Softlib/MSLFILES/MINTEL.EXE Also, Onuava, a monospaced font from Font Craft/Scriptorum is worth considering. Once it was part of a free web font package but I could not locate that offer now. Price is $18.00. http://www.fontcraft.com/Merchant2/m...ct_Code=onuava Let us know.
