This information is not available within the font file, at least in the
TrueType specification which is the basis for OpenType.  Programs which
read TrueType fonts are obliged to judge for themselves, customarily by
taking measurements of each font's glyphs, or by searching for ``Mono''
within the font's family name.  I don't know which approach Windows
employs.
