Unlike monospaced fonts, a halfwidth character occupies half the width of a fullwidth character, hence the name. Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms is also the name of a Unicode block U+FF00–FFEF, provided so that older encodings containing both halfwidth and fullwidth characters can have lossless translation to and from Unicode.
Traditionally, this means either a single or double character width, [1] although the term has also been applied to fonts using fixed character widths with another simple ratio between them. [2] These dual character widths are also referred to as half-width and full-width, where a full-width character occupies double the width of a half-width ...
Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms is a Unicode block U+FF00–FFEF, provided so that older encodings containing both halfwidth and fullwidth characters can have lossless translation to/from Unicode. It is the second-to-last block of the Basic Multilingual Plane , followed only by the short Specials block at U+FFF0–FFFF.
Further, though JIS X 0201 is a single-byte encoding (and displayed at half-width) and JIS X 0208 is a double-byte encoding (and displayed at full-width), there is no connection between number of bytes and width (other than those corresponding in Shift JIS, as above) – for example, Unicode can be encoded with four bytes to display both full ...

Fixed-width typeface may refer to: a monospaced font with characters of uniform width; a duospaced font with characters of full-width and half-width
