Hi

I'm looking for the fonts whose character's size is the same no matter what
character is.

this is because I'm printing a receipt and I need that each column has the
same lenght, just to make it look better.

I only know Courier news has it, but I'm looking for more to have a variety
to choose

These type of fonts are called "Monospaced" fonts. There are lots of them.

There are three general families of fonts. Proportional fonts have a
different character width for each character, Monospaced fonts have a
uniform width for all characters and are analagous to the typewriter fonts
of old and graphic fonts like Wingdings have images or graphical componenets
in them.

Pica, Elite and Courier are monospaced fonts. Search for others on the web.
