  • IBM Courier

    IBM made this digital implementation of its commissioned typeface, Courier, available as a PostScript Type 1 font under the IBM/MIT X Consortium Courier Typefont agreement, a permissive license.

    This distribution of IBM Courier retains the original copyright, and includes along with the original fonts, conversions of them to these modern formats:

    • OpenType
    • TrueType
    • WOFF and WOFF2
    • SVG

    IBM Courier is available in four weights:

    • Regular
    • Italic
    • Bold
    • Bold Italic

    A CSS file for use on web sites is also included.

    I have not altered the fonts in any way, with the exception of any changes FontForge may have made in the process of converting them.

    Compared with Other Couriers

    IBM Courier is slightly thicker than Courier New; but not as thick as, say, Bitstream’s Courier 10 Pitch BT or Courier Prime.

    Stroke terminators are flat, not round.

    About (IBM) Courier

    Yeah, just read the Wikipedia.

    Courier is not a registered trademark, though IBM is. I’m only using the IBM name because it’s… IBM’s product.
