 ## Date and time formats
 
 All date and time formats should be localizable, not hard-coded. When building localizable date and time formats, development teams should share the same library by using resources like [date-fns](https://date-fns.org/) or [Day.js](https://day.js.org/).

+## Tabular font styling 
+
+The primary fonts used in PatternFly (Red Hat Display and Red Hat Text) are proportional fonts, which typically offer better readability for standard blocks of text. When numerals are placed within long text bodies, as part of the text, it is best to use a proportional font. 
+
+Sometimes, numerals benefit from the use of a tabular font instead. **Tabular fonts** apply uniform width and spacing to helps maintain proper alignment of numbers. This can be particularly helpful when numbers are dynamically changing on screen, to prevent rough and jumpy movement. 
+
+Tabular font styling is used in a couple of PatternFly components, including slider and progress, but we also offer a modifier that allows you to apply tabular styling on your own: `.pf-v6-m-tabular-nums`, which sets `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums;`
