Metric System Not Officially Used in Kenya Until 1967

In 1961, it was a British Protectorate. They use the English weights and Measures. Not many nations had converted to the Metric system yet. It wasn't until a few years later that Kenya became independent.
It is NOT a proportional font. I did computer typesetting for a number of years and I know what I am talking about. Look at the stacked addressing on several lines where there are upper case mixed letters and you can see it is not proportional at all. Every letter is right above every letter on the lower line with no offset. You are losing your argument because there are ZERO facts to back your position.
Of course the form is typeset with proportional type. . . That is the way it was done with an offset printer before the invention of the computerized typesetting. You used individual slugs with the character on them and separated them with proportional spacers. You placed them in a printer's block and then ran off your forms in large quantities.
The form would then be put in a typewriter and filled in by a clerk.
