symbolic characters like %% and @.
There is a bold form
called "demibold" and an oblique form, which

Times Roman Times Roman is a popular typeface adapted from
older forms. Once used in the London Times, it is considered an
elegant, bookish typeface. It has been popular in the United States
for decades. This typeface is excellent in a wide variety of
applications except for small, highly condensed formats, where
Helvetica would prove superior. The Times Roman italic is
particularly graceful while the bold italic is thicker. Times Roman
is a proportionally-spaced typeface.
Courier Courier is a newer typeface that was
designed for electric typewriters by IBM.
Courier has a bold form that is thick and
stylish. The oblique form of Courier has its
merits and uses; as does the bold oblique
form of Courier. The Courier family may be
used for counterpoint with Times Roman or
Helvetica. Unlike Times Roman and Helvetica,
Courier is a fixed-spaced typeface.
