About

PT Astra Serif is a serif font family. The Homebrew cask installs four TrueType font files, covering regular, italic, bold, and bold italic styles.

  • Regular: pt-astra-serif_regular.ttf
  • Italic: pt-astra-serif_italic.ttf
  • Bold: pt-astra-serif_bold.ttf
  • Bold italic: pt-astra-serif_bold-italic.ttf

Install it with brew install --cask font-pt-astra-serif. After installation, select the installed PT Astra Serif style you want in an application that supports custom fonts. This package installs fonts, not a separate application; for coding, select the font in a compatible editor or terminal if that is where you want to use it. The supplied font files establish the included styles, but do not establish full Unicode coverage or ligature support.
