Courier New OS is a classic typewriter font with equal spacing. Moreover, each letter takes up the same width on the page. Howard “Bud” Kettler made the first Courier font in 1955 for IBM. Additionally, Monotype later updated it as Courier New for computers. The font looks like text from an old typewriter. Therefore, it gives your work a clean and classic style.
This font is perfect for writing code and movie scripts. Furthermore, it works great for technical papers and data tables. The equal spacing keeps everything lined up in neat rows. Consequently, coders and writers use it every day. As a result, your text looks neat and easy to read.
