Bitter Font Family - Dafont Free

Nowadays, more and more individuals come across the printed word online daily. What comes out of the screen instead of a printer becomes more significant than the actual printed result. As for the screen reading, type designers pay a lot of efforts to find what kind of typeface is more suitable for reading on screen accompanying with the increasing popularity of electronic books.

This is the work of Sol Matas, who fell in love with the pixel and decided to design Bitter. An’ “embedded” or “modern” slab serif for text; it is designed for easy reading, regardless of the user’s gadget. The receivers admitted a clear-cut plan largely based on rational not to mention fascist principles starting with the austerity of the pixel grid of such a layout. It derives from the large x-heights and readability of the humanist typeface tradition yet fulfils more subtle aspects within the characters conveying a kind of rhythm to texts that are to be read.

However, Bitter has very small differences in stroke weight, and the ‘Regular’ variant is more heavy in weight as compared to common ‘Regular’ style for print media. This produces a high contrast in the texts in the paragraphs, further enhanced by serifs as thick as the strokes and having square terminals.
