If you chose a scalable monospaced font, you can select the font pitch. Pitch refers to the

 

 

 

number of fixed-space characters in a horizontal inch of type. You can select a pitch from 0.08

 

 

 

to 100 characters per inch (cpi) in increments of 0.01 cpi. For non-scalable monospaced fonts,

 

 

 

the pitch is displayed, but it cannot be changed.
