Church Slavonic Fonts
Slavonic Computing Initiative · A collection of OpenType fonts for Church Slavonic, installed as individual font files.
Church Slavonic Fonts is a font you can install on a Mac.
About
Church Slavonic Fonts installs a selection of OpenType fonts for Church Slavonic text and typography. The collection includes styles associated with Synodal Church Slavonic, early Cyrillic printed books, Ustav-era manuscripts, academic typography, and decorative use. The Homebrew cask installs specific font files; it does not install every font named in the upstream project’s broader collection.
Included files cover several named designs, including Voskresensky, Cathisma Unicode, Fedorovsk Unicode, Indiction Unicode, Menaion Unicode, Monomakh Unicode, Ponomar Unicode, and Shafarik. The complete installed-file list also includes Triodion Unicode, Vertograd Unicode, and Acathist. Some installed files retain “Unicode” in their names; the project notes that these older named fonts are no longer maintained and may be useful for older documents. File names establish which fonts are included, not complete character coverage or support for particular typographic features.
Install with brew install --cask font-church-slavonic. After installation, select the specific installed font by name in an application that supports user-installed fonts, such as a word processor or page-layout program. This is a font collection, not an application, and its fonts are not specifically described as coding or monospaced fonts.
The project identifies the fonts as OpenType and licenses them under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1.
