10 Bits Variable Bitmap Typeface
About
10 Bits originates from an early 2000s project where elegance and slickness was paramount. At a time when the use of bitmap fonts made sense, CRT screens were the norm and rendering font technologies were at best suboptimal.
Fast forward 20+ years and high density displays, 10 Bits is reborn for the nostalgia from a time where 1 pixel was easy to spot in the screen. Perhaps it still is, or is it aging making it harder to spot?
Bitmap fonts scales best at multiples. 10 Bits, I let you guess, scales best on multiples of 10. That is, use it on sizes like 10, 20, 30, 40, and so forth… This ensures that every pixel will be rounded and preventing any anti-aliasing to kick in.
