About

Arbutus Slab is a slab serif font available through this Homebrew cask. The cask installs one font file: ArbutusSlab-Regular.ttf, targeting the current user's Library/Fonts folder. This is a font installation, not a separate application.

  • The installed file is the regular style, ArbutusSlab-Regular.ttf.
  • The cask provides this specific file; it does not install additional styles or variants.
  • The font is listed on Google Fonts as Arbutus Slab.

Install it with brew install --cask font-arbutus-slab. After installation, select Arbutus Slab in the font menu of an application that supports installed fonts. The cask supplies a font file, but that alone does not establish the family’s full character coverage or support for particular typographic features.
