About
Noto Serif Tamil is a serif typeface for Tamil, available through this Homebrew cask as two variable TrueType font files: a regular style and an italic style. The files are installed in the user’s ~/ directory.
The cask includes NotoSerifTamil[wdth,wght]. and NotoSerifTamil-Italic[wdth,wght].. The bracketed wdth and wght tokens are part of the filenames and indicate variable-font axes; the installed files are the specific artifacts provided by this cask.
To install, run brew install --cask font-noto-serif-tamil. After installation, select Noto Serif Tamil in an application that supports installed fonts, such as a word processor or design application. Installing this cask adds font files; it does not install a separate application.
The Google Fonts specimen page identifies the typeface as Noto Serif Tamil. The available package details establish the included files, but do not specify full Unicode coverage or other font capabilities.
