Typemade · A font available through Google Fonts, installed as variable upright and italic TrueType font files.
Josefin Slab is a font you can install on a Mac.
About
Josefin Slab is a font available through Google Fonts. This Homebrew cask installs two font files: an upright variable font and an italic variable font, both in TrueType format. It installs the font files, not a separate application.
Included files:
JosefinSlab[wght].— upright variable font.ttf JosefinSlab-Italic[wght].— italic variable font.ttf
To install, run brew install --cask font-josefin-slab. After installation, select the installed Josefin Slab font in a compatible application that lets you choose fonts, such as a document or design application. The cask provides the two listed files; it does not establish that other styles or variants are installed. Font-file availability alone does not establish full Unicode coverage or ligature support.
