Proportional Fonts A Proportional font is one in which each character is a different size. The spacing
is proportional to the character size. For example, five Ws take up much more space than five i's.

Monospace Fonts All Monospace fonts are evenly spaced. Using the previous example, the W’s and
the i's take up the same amount of space.
The Center with spaces option in Padding only works with any accuracy with Monospace Fonts. Since
the Center with spaces option is based upon the number of characters as opposed to the physical width
of the field and characters, attempting to use centering with Proportional Fonts creates unpredictable
results. The only way to know for sure whether or not a font is Proportional or Monospace is to print
with it. (Do not rely on the view on your screen.) Even though you may be able to choose one of these
options from the Spacing’ property in the Properties box, the font itself or the printer may not support
the option you have chosen. Thermal Transfer printers generally have proportional fonts. A visual
example follows using TrueType fonts:
Courier New is a Monospace Font. In the figure below, the top field has 20 Max # Chars, Padding set to
“None”, and 20 W’s typed into the On-Demand Print Form. The next field also has 20 Max # Chars,
Padding set to Center with spaces, and 4 W’s typed into the On-Demand Print Form. The results are
seen as quite accurate; as the text in the second field is well centered:

If the font is changed to Arial; a Proportional Font, and the same Padding options as well as the same
typing is used, the result is a field that is not centered correctly:
