Fonts
Why, oh WHY ??? I THOUGHT Courier was "equal-spaced", i.e. every character had the same width and height. BUT . . . When I put this in a WORD doc, using Courier, the lines do not "match up" ...

Courier New is a mono-spaced font. I would suggest that you use a table to layout your document, with borders selectively applied for the vertical lines.

Thank you for your response. Alas ! YET another "learning curve" !
I had hoped for a suggestion for a "proper" equi-spaced font.
Is "Courier New" the only one ?
There are SO many other fonts !
Those "line" characters are inserted by Alt-Number Pad.
It seems that "Space" is not the same width either ?
