Designed By: Howard Kettler in 1955History: A monospaced slab serif typeface to resemble the output from a strike-on typewriter. Commissioned originally for IBM, they decided not to legally exclusive it to themselves where it then became used as a standard font for the typewriter industry. Due to this, it can no longer be copyrighted or trademarked. Courier Bold is distributed with Adobe Reader 6, as a replacement for the PostScript Courier fonts, with the strokes being flat instead of round. For all point sizes, the font is hinted and smoothed. Each font within the Courier set contains 374 glyphs.
