About

Playwrite FR Trad Guides is a typeface listed by Google Fonts under the name Playwrite France Traditionnelle Guides. The supplied Homebrew cask installs one font file: PlaywriteFRTradGuides-Regular.ttf, the regular style. This package installs a font, not an application.

To install it, run brew install --cask font-playwrite-fr-trad-guides. After installation, select the installed font in a compatible application that lets you choose fonts, such as a document editor or design tool. The font is available to use where that application supports installed system fonts.

The cask’s listed artifact is specifically the regular font file; it does not establish that other styles or variants are included. The available source identifies the typeface but provides no further detail about its language coverage, glyph set, or font features.
