About
Barlow Semi Condensed is a semi-condensed font family available as TrueType font files. The Homebrew cask installs a specific set of styles rather than an application.
The installed files include upright and italic faces, with weights ranging from Thin through Black. The set includes styles such as ExtraLight, Light, Medium, SemiBold, Bold, and ExtraBold, along with italic counterparts for many of these weights. Regular and italic faces are included as well.
Install the font files with:
brew install --cask font-barlow-semi-condensed
After installation, select Barlow Semi Condensed or one of its installed styles in a font-aware application, such as a word processor or design tool. Installing the cask does not install an app. The listed files establish which styles are included; they do not establish complete Unicode character coverage or support for typographic ligatures.
