Where Zeitung’s italics are timid and relatively close to the upright roman characters, a closer look shows that Zeitung’s monospaced italics are scripty, fancy, and striking. Monospaced fonts are not only applied in digital environments (coding, terminals, teletext, etc), but also have printed applications (bank statements, receipts, tables, etc) in which italic fonts are frequently used. Or think of journalists who write their texts using elementary text editors, using a simple typewriter style. Even book designers can run into situations where a monospaced font could be of help, while visualising a piece of code for example, or even sometimes when a nondescript feeling must be obtained.
