About

Noto Sans SC is the Simplified Chinese member of the Noto sans-serif font collection. Google Fonts identifies its designer as Google, its primary script as Simplified Han, and its license as the SIL Open Font License. The font metadata also lists Latin, Latin Extended, Cyrillic and Vietnamese subsets.

The Homebrew cask installs the single NotoSansSC[wght].ttf variable font into the user font library. Its weight axis ranges from 100 to 900, allowing applications with variable-font support to select intermediate weights. This is a typeface installation, not a standalone macOS application or font-management utility.

The Google Fonts source metadata points to the official Noto CJK repository. That repository maintains separate Sans and Serif release histories; a Noto CJK release number must not be assumed to be the version of this Google Fonts file. Homebrew records this cask as latest and downloads from the mutable main branch without a checksum, so its record does not establish an exact numbered upstream release.
