About

Lexica Ultralegible is a typeface presented as built for accessibility in typography. This Homebrew cask installs eight font files into the current user's ~/Library/Fonts directory: Regular, Bold, Italic, and Bold Italic, each available as TTF and OTF files.

  • Choose among four named styles: Regular, Bold, Italic, and Bold Italic.
  • Includes both TTF and OTF files for each of those styles.
  • This package installs fonts, not a standalone application.

Install it with brew install --cask font-lexica-ultralegible. After installation, select Lexica Ultralegible and the desired style in an application that supports user-installed fonts. The exact selection steps depend on the application. The available information describes the typeface's accessibility purpose but does not specify particular accessibility features or language coverage.
