+      Roboto Mono is a monospaced addition to the Roboto type family. Like
+      the other members of the Roboto family, the fonts are optimized for
+      readability on screens across a wide variety of devices and reading
+      environments. While the monospaced version is related to its variable
+      width cousin, it doesn't hesitate to change forms to better fit the
+      constraints of a monospaced environment. For example, narrow glyphs
+      like 'I', 'l' and 'i' have added serifs for more even texture while
+      wider glyphs are adjusted for weight. Curved caps like 'C' and 'O'
+      take on the straighter sides from Roboto Condensed.
