+      Roboto has a dual nature. It has a mechanical skeleton and the forms
+      are largely geometric. At the same time, the font features friendly
+      and open curves. While some grotesks distort their letterforms to
+      force a rigid rhythm, Roboto doesn't compromise, allowing letters to
+      be settled into their natural width. This makes for a more natural
+      reading rhythm more commonly found in humanist and serif types.
+
+      This is the Roboto Slab family, which can be used alongside the normal
+      Roboto family and the Roboto Condensed family.
