About

Optician Sans is a font, not an application. This Homebrew cask installs the single font file Optician-Sans.otf in the user’s Fonts folder.

After installation, choose Optician Sans from the font menu in an application that supports selecting installed fonts. The cask provides this specific OpenType file; it does not install an application or additional font files.

Install with:

brew install --cask font-optician-sans

For more information, visit the Optician Sans website.
