Changing Proportional Spacing
and Monospacing
Proportional fonts are used to insert
texts as standard. This means that each
letter takes a space proportional to the
character width. For example, a letter
W
takes more space than a letter
I
.
When monospaced fonts are used,
the character width does not depend
on the character. In other words, each
character has the same width. The
beginning of a monospaced piece of
text is usually marked with the
F1
key
and the end of a monospaced piece
of text is usually marked with the
F2
