To be precise, not "fixed" but "bitmap".

"Courier new" is "fixed" but not "bitmap" - all letters have the same width, 
but each letter itself is a set of lines and polygons (like SVG image)

"Terminus" is "fixed" AND "bitmap" - each letter is a small bitmap - looks 
jaggy when sized up.

Windows' "sans" is "proportional" AND "bitmap" - letter "W" takes more space 
than "i". 

Nimbus is "proportional" but not "bitmap".

It is "bitmapness" that's causing trouble, not "fixedness".
