chella,

I don't think this is an Adobe monospaced or typewriter font. Your sample letters are inconsistent in form, and they lack antialiasing, making this a bit more difficult. I checked well over 200 font samples at myfonts.com and none had letters and figures that matched, or even came terribly close in basic structure.

I suspect this is some bargain/free font downloaded from somewhere.

chella,

Go to myfonts.com and check out their monospaced fonts. There may be an alternative that you like.

Is that what it realy looks like or is the image an enlargement of a 
bitmap image or a screen capture. The fact that the curves and 
diagonals are jagged makes me think that you don't have an accurate 
image, but one that's been much too distorted to identify.

When you say "Adobe font" - do you mean that you know it was produced 
by Adobe or do you mean that it was a Type 1 font (windows .pfb and 
.pfm or Mac type 1 or sometimes called a Postscript font)?
