If I want to apply the courier font to a small piece of text in my file, how can I do that? I have searched around but can't seem to find information for the courier font.

3By 'courier', are you actually referring to 'typewriter' (as part of the Computer Modern fonts, or to the specific mono-spaced font 'Courier'?– Werner ♦Commented Aug 3, 2011 at 20:25

1I mean the specific mono-spaced font - Courier, that is typically used for programming code.– JoeblackdevCommented Aug 3, 2011 at 20:34

6Courier is a very wide font. There are further mono-space fonts available if you are free to choose.– Stefan Kottwitz ♦Commented Aug 3, 2011 at 20:59

Use the courier package. Consequently, the minimal example
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{courier}
\begin{document}
This is not Courier font. \texttt{This is Courier font.}
\end{document}
produces
There is a marginal difference between the output generated via \texttt{...} with/without the courier package:
- Without
courierpackage:
- With
courierpackage:

Dear Werner. Can we apply courier font for the formula also?– anonimoCommented Aug 3, 2023 at 7:23

Is \texttt{} what you are looking for?
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Here is some \texttt{fixed width} text.
\end{document}

26Even though there's a difference, Peter's answer is a good addition. Most viewers, like me, come here for the
\textttoption as it is difficult to ask Google the question relevant to\texttt. Commented Jun 6, 2014 at 4:09
