The [_FONTWIDTH](_FONTWIDTH) function returns the font width of a MONOSPACE font handle created by [_LOADFONT](_LOADFONT).

|
## Syntax
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> pixelWidth% = [_FONTWIDTH](_FONTWIDTH)[(fontHandle&)]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Returns the character width of the last font used if a handle is not specified.
|
||
|
|
* **Variable width fonts always return pixelWidth% = 0.** Even fixed width fonts return 0 unless the [LOADFONT](LOADFONT) style option is used.
|
||
|
|
* QB64 **version 1.000 and up** can load a variable width font as monospaced with the [LOADFONT](LOADFONT) style parameter.
|
||
|
|
* The font width is generally 3/4 of the [_FONTHEIGHT](_FONTHEIGHT) specified when loading the font.
|
||
|
|
* In **graphics** [SCREEN (statement)](SCREEN-(statement)) modes, [_PRINTWIDTH](_PRINTWIDTH) can return the total **pixel width** of a literal or variable [STRING](STRING) of text.
