MacPorts Fonts

This is a MacPorts portfile repository offering ports for system fonts.

These are OpenType, TrueType, etc. fonts that install to /Library/Fonts for use throughout the OS in "regular" applications. This stands in contrast to the fonts offered in the default MacPorts repository, which are only installed and configured for use in X11.

Included fonts

Currently most fonts fall into one of two categories:

• Monospaced fonts designed for code
• CJK fonts, especially Japanese

Only fonts with permissive licenses have direct downloads setup. Fonts with restrictive licenses can be included but will require manually obtaining the distfiles.

Usage

Clone this repository somewhere:

git clone https://github.com/amake/macports-fonts.git

Optionally set up automatic index refresh:

cd macports-fonts
make

Add the entry to your MacPorts sources config (by default at /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf):
