Courier new courier monospace

A blast from the past!

Courier New and Courier Monospace are both monospaced fonts, which means that each character has the same width. This makes them ideal for coding, typing, and other applications where precise spacing is important.

Here's a brief history:

• Courier: Designed by Howard "Bud" Kettler in 1955 for IBM, Courier was one of the first monospaced fonts. It was originally designed for use on IBM typewriters and was later adapted for use on computers.
• Courier New: Released in 1993, Courier New is a revised version of the original Courier font. It was designed to be more readable and to include additional characters, such as Unicode characters.

Courier New and Courier Monospace are still widely used today, particularly in coding and programming environments. They're often used in conjunction with other fonts to create a consistent and readable visual style.

Here's an example of what Courier New and Courier Monospace look like:

Courier New

Hello, world!

Courier Monospace

Hello, world!

As you can see, both fonts have a similar appearance, with each character having the same width. This makes them easy to read and use for coding and other applications.
