I thought AR PL UKai CN Book is a monospace font. My understanding is that Chinese,
Japanese, and Korean characters all fit in uniformly-sized squares, and this should be
true of sans-serif fonts, Ming fonts, and regular fonts (includes AR PL UKai CN Book). So
1. Why does AR PL UKai CN Book not qualify as a monospace font?
2. What does qualify a font as monospace?
Sadly, my knowledge of fonts is limited. So, I can't answer your question.
I'll just say that AR PL UKai CN Book is troublesome when used in a terminal program.
So, don't use
it in a terminal program.
