Overview
Bitter is a contemporary slab serif typeface designed specifically for comfortable reading on screens. It features large x-heights and minimal stroke weight variation, with a thicker-than-usual Regular style to create a strong text color in paragraphs. The serifs are as thick as the strokes and have square terminals, contributing to its robust appearance. Each glyph is carefully crafted with smooth curves, initially designed on a pixel grid for clarity and precision. The typeface is manually spaced to minimize kerning needs, enhancing its usability in digital text settings.
