You have to use "typewriter"--fixed spacing--font in your mail program;
if you can't, you have to export the file out to something that has 
a typewriter font to view it with.

Each recipient has to view the picture in typewriter font. You cannot
make this happen at the sending end (you can only tell them "please
use a typewriter font like Courier or Monaco to view this)".
