What are the advantages and disadvantages of using a fixed width font like Courier New versus a variable width font like Arial in FPDF?

When using a fixed width font like Courier New in FPDF, the advantage is that each character takes up the same amount of space, which can help maintain alignment in tables or columns. However, the disadvantage is that it may not be as visually appealing as a variable width font like Arial, which can adjust spacing between characters for better readability. To implement the use of a fixed width font like Courier New in FPDF, you can set the font using the AddFont method and then specify the font family, style, and size when adding text to the PDF document. Here is an example code snippet:

// Add Courier New font
$pdf->AddFont('Courier New', '', 'courier.php');

// Set font
$pdf->SetFont('Courier New', '', 12);

// Add text using Courier New font
$pdf->Cell(0, 10, 'This is a sample text using Courier New font', 0, 1);
