Look up the COMB property. Would that solve your problem?
(Maybe, maybe not. The comb property is used for instance to
fill in bank account numbers on a document to wire money:
these forms have preprinted squares: 1 square per number.
If that's what you need, the COMB property is the answer.)

That's normal if you're using a proportional font.
If the COMB property doesn't meet your requirement,
you should use a monospace font (e.g. Courier).
