Adobe · A Hong Kong Traditional Chinese serif font, installed as seven separate OTF weight files.
Noto Serif CJK HK is a font you can install on a Mac.
About
Noto Serif CJK HK is the Hong Kong Traditional Chinese regional variant of the Noto Serif CJK family. This Homebrew cask installs seven static OpenType font files, covering these named weights: ExtraLight, Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold, Bold, and Black. It installs the Hong Kong-specific OTF files, not the family’s other language variants, variable fonts, or OTC packages.
The fonts are intended for typesetting and other text presentation where a serif style is wanted. The upstream project describes Noto Serif CJK formats as supporting horizontal and vertical forms where appropriate. The installed files are font resources, not an application; choose the installed Noto Serif CJK HK face and weight in a font-aware application to use them. Their availability does not by itself establish complete Unicode coverage or ligature support.
Install with Homebrew:
brew install --cask font-noto-serif-cjk-hk
After installation, select the desired Noto Serif CJK HK weight from the font menu in a compatible application.
