ProFont is a monospace font available in many formats. It is intended to be used for programming in IDE environments and it is available in bitmap and TrueType versions for various platforms. Originally developed as shareware by Andrew Welch[1] for the Apple Macintosh in TrueType format, ProFont was intended to have metrics identical with Apple's default Monaco font—resulting in an 80 column by 25 line display in a Compact Macintosh full screen window—but with additional features desirable for programming, such as a slashed zero and easily distinguished curly brackets. ProFont was bundled with the BBEdit text editor.

- ProFont è un carattere monospazio. È stato creato da Tobias Jung, un programmatore tedesco che cercava un carattere con caratteristiche simili al Profont da lui usato sul suo Mac 9.1 ma che funzionasse anche su Windows e macOS. Le caratteristiche del font dovevano essere le seguenti:
* I caratteri dovevano essere perfettamente distinguibili uno dall'altro, ad esempio non doveva essere possibile confondere l'uno (1) con la L minuscola (l) o la i maiuscola (I)
* Lo zero doveva essere "barrato"
* Doveva essere possibile usare piccole definizioni (intorno ai 9 punti) senza perdere in leggibilità. Dopo aver effettuato vari tentativi (ad esempio la conversione ad un formato compatibile con Windows) e inutili ricerche Jung giunse alla conclusione che doveva creare un nuovo carattere che fu appunto il ProFont. Il font è stato creato in formato TrueType in modo tale da poter essere usato su praticamente qualsiasi piattaforma. (it)
