{{DISPLAYTITLE:_FONTWIDTH}}
The '''_FONTWIDTH''' function returns the font width of a MONOSPACE font handle created by {{KW|_LOADFONT}}.


{{PageSyntax}}
:{{Parameter|pixel_width%}} = {{KW|_FONTWIDTH}}[({{Parameter|font_handle}})]


* Will return width of last font used if a handle is not designated.
* '''Variable width fonts always return width 0.''' Even fixed width fonts will return 0 unless the &quot;MONOSPACE&quot; style option is used.
* '''&quot;MONOSPACE&quot; cannot be used on a variable width font.'''
* The font width is generally 3/4 of the [[_FONTHEIGHT]] specified when loading the font.
* In '''graphics''' [[SCREEN (statement)|screen]] modes, [[_PRINTWIDTH]] can return the total '''pixel width''' of a literal or variable [[STRING|string]] of text.
