App: Simon Tatham's Puzzles Game: Black Box Platform: Android 9 Device: Samsung Galaxy S8+ Issue: The text alignment for the ASCII layouts in the rules to "Black Box" displays in a variable-width font rather than fixed-width, so the grid appears essentially unintelligible on the screen.*

The grids do appear fixed-width for me - perhaps it's doing so using a font that isn't universally available, or there's some quirk to HTML rendering on that device?

hi @ Tepi-Liz Hatfield,

  1. can u please attach the screenshot of the issue?
  2. And as you are using a samsung device, i would assume that you are using a custom font (in theming or some such). Can u share the name of the font used as well??
  3. If you are willing to do so, then after doing both above, can u try changing the font to a default one and redo both above steps? (default - i mean the one used generally in android, though i dont know what that is 😅 )
