About

iA Writer Duo is a writing typeface family from iA. This Homebrew cask installs six font files: four static files and two variable files. The installed set includes regular, bold, and italic static styles, plus variable upright and italic files.

  • Static files: iAWriterDuoS-Regular.ttf, iAWriterDuoS-Bold.ttf, iAWriterDuoS-Italic.ttf, and iAWriterDuoS-BoldItalic.ttf.
  • Variable files: iAWriterDuoV.ttf and iAWriterDuoV-Italic.ttf.
  • The project describes the fonts as modified versions of IBM Plex.
  • The fonts may be installed as custom fonts for personal use in other text editors; the project says not to redistribute them with those editors.

Install with brew install --cask font-ia-writer-duo. After installation, choose the specific installed iA Writer Duo font in a compatible application’s font settings. This installs fonts, not the iA Writer text editor. The cask installs the six files listed above; it does not establish that every possible family style or Unicode character is included. Consult the project’s license file for terms governing use, modification, and distribution.
