Should I use monospaced fonts?
Compared to proportional fonts, monospaced fonts are harder to read. And because they take up more horizontal space, you'll always get fewer words per page with a monospaced font. In standard body text, there are no good reasons to use monospaced fonts. So don't.
Why do programmers use monospace fonts?
Developers almost always use a monospace font because we don't read code in the same way we read text. You can glean the meaning of a large block of text by briefly looking at pieces of the words and how they fit together.
What is the point of monospaced font?
