Spacing
Character spacing has two forms, monospacing and proportional
spacing (fig. 7.11). Monospaced characters have equal spacing
between each letter which is sometimes referred to as fixed spacing.
An excellent example is the resident Courier typeface. Monospacing
has a mechanical, block look and works extremely well for
spreadsheets where multiple columns of numbers need to be aligned.
Proportional spacing varies the width between characters. For
example the letter l needs less space than a w. Except for Courier, the
rest of your printer’s resident PostScript typefaces are proportionally
spaced. Proportional spacing is more legible, better for most
documents not requiring multiple aligned columns.
