About

Playpen Sans Arabic is a font family available through Google Fonts. This Homebrew cask installs one variable TrueType font file, PlaypenSansArabic[wght].ttf, in the current user’s ~/Library/Fonts folder. The installed artifact is the variable-font file; the cask does not install a separate application.

To install it, run:

brew install --cask font-playpen-sans-arabic

After installation, select Playpen Sans Arabic in a compatible application’s font menu. The font can be used wherever that application supports installed fonts. The installed file is evidence of a variable-font artifact, but does not establish its full character coverage or whether it supports particular typographic features. The cask installs only the listed font file.
