About
ChiaYiCityFont, also known as 嘉市體 (Chiayi City Font), is a typeface created for Chiayi City. The city describes its design as drawing on Chiayi’s cultural history and handwritten forms, with flowing strokes intended to convey a warm, welcoming character. It is designed to pair with the bold weight of 思源黑體 (Source Han Sans).
The city’s description says the typeface includes uppercase and lowercase English letters and Arabic numerals, as well as characters for Taiwanese and Hakka, romanization, Indigenous languages and Vietnamese phonetic notation. The city offers it for free download and commercial use. The Homebrew cask installs the single font file ChiayiCity.; this does not establish the complete character coverage of that file.
Install with brew install --cask font-chiayi-city. After installation, select ChiayiCityFont in a compatible application’s font menu to use it; this package installs a font, not an application.
