About

Montserrat Alternates is a font family available through this Homebrew cask. The cask installs individual TrueType font files into the user’s ~/Library/Fonts directory; it does not install a separate application.

The installed files provide upright and italic styles at a range of weights, from Thin through Black. The included files are: MontserratAlternates-ThinItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-BlackItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-Bold.ttf, MontserratAlternates-BoldItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-ExtraBold.ttf, MontserratAlternates-ExtraBoldItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-ExtraLight.ttf, MontserratAlternates-ExtraLightItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-Italic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-Light.ttf, MontserratAlternates-LightItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-Medium.ttf, MontserratAlternates-MediumItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-Regular.ttf, MontserratAlternates-SemiBold.ttf, MontserratAlternates-SemiBoldItalic.ttf, MontserratAlternates-Thin.ttf, and MontserratAlternates-Black.ttf.

Install it with:

brew install --cask font-montserrat-alternates

After installation, select Montserrat Alternates in an application that lets you choose installed fonts, such as a document or design application. The installed files identify the available styles; they do not establish complete Unicode coverage or support for ligatures.
