About

Noto Sans Tamil is a typeface for Tamil text, available through Google Fonts. The Homebrew Cask installs one file: NotoSansTamil[wdth,wght].ttf.

  • The installed artifact is a variable TrueType font file, with wdth and wght in its filename.
  • The cask installs the font in ~/Library/Fonts.
  • This package installs a font, not an application.

Install it with brew install --cask font-noto-sans-tamil. After installation, select the actual Noto Sans Tamil font in an application that supports custom fonts. The package provides this specific font file; it does not establish the extent of Unicode coverage or whether the font supports ligatures.
