Each character in a proportionally spaced font is a different height and
width. You may be able to place more characters on a line using
proportionally spaced fonts. You may want to experiment with these fonts
and adjust field measurements in your format as needed. The bitmapped
fonts (either monospaced or proportional) appear jagged when magnified.
The magnification range is 1 to 7. The following tables provide height and
width magnification of sample characters.

To calculate other font widths, multiply the font dots (3 dots for Minimum, 13
dots for Average, 22 dots for Maximum) by the magnification.
Example
13 (Average font dots) x 5 (magnification) = 65 dots in an average letter of
the CG Triumvirate™ Typeface Bold at 5x.
