About Everson Mono

Everson Mono is a simple, elegant, monowidth font. I started designing it in 1994 primarily to make glyphs available to support the non-Han characters in Unicode and ISO/IEC 10646-1, though I hope that users may find it a pleasant alternative to Courier and Monaco for general purposes, e-mail, and so forth. I have found it quite legible at sizes as small as 4 points. It is lighter and a bit looser than Courier.

Development of this font is ongoing. For a long while Everson Mono lay fallow, because of the transition from 8-bit to Unicode fonts, and then due to my own busyness working on the encoding of the world's writing systems. Everson Mono should work now on Unicode-compliant operating systems and with Unicode-compliant applications.
