Can anyone point me in the direction of a freeware Mode 7 font that is fixed width please?

I'm having issues with the one I'm using rendering as fixed width in HTML. The characters are doing so quite nicely but the spaces aren't. The one I'm using doesn't appear to be categorised as a FW font in "Font Book" (Mac system font utility) despite it looking like it is.

Before I spend too much effort on working this one out I'd like to try one or more others so see if it's the font, the mac or the HTML.

I'm currently using one by Andrew Bulhack (SP on the surname?)

Thanks,
Martin.

Think you mean this one from Andrew Bulhak.

Here's an alternative. Is this any use?

Or there's this one, but I can't download it from work to see if it's the right MODE:

Thanks Sam - I'm at work myself but a couple of alternatives should be plenty to establish where my issue lies. I'll investigate later :)

Just what I needed. It proved it was my HTML output which I've now been able to fix using 'pre' tags.

This is getting near to release stage you know! Expect a little Mac doo-dah soon :)

Cheers,
Martin.
