After downloading, install the font on your system so it's available in all applications. For web projects, use the WOFF2 version with @font-face.
Click "Download TTF" above and save Yapiri.ttf to your Downloads folder.
Double-click Yapiri.ttf to open the Windows Font Preview window.
Click the Install button at the top of the preview window. The font installs system-wide immediately.
Open Word, Notepad, or any app. Select (Yapiri Regular) from the font dropdown.
Click "Download TTF" above and save Yapiri.ttf to your Downloads folder.
Double-click Yapiri.ttf. macOS will open it in Font Book automatically.
Click Install Font in the Font Book preview. The font is now available system-wide.
Open Pages, Keynote, Illustrator, or any app. Select (Yapiri Regular) from the font menu.
Download Yapiri.ttf from the button above.
Run: mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts && cp Yapiri.ttf ~/.local/share/fonts/
Run: fc-cache -fv to update the system font cache.
Run: fc-list | grep Yapiri — if it returns a result, the font is installed correctly.
Place Yapiri.woff2 (and optionally TTF for fallback) in your project's fonts or assets folder.
@font-face { font-family: 'Yapiri'; src: url('Yapiri.woff2?v=2') format('woff2'), url('Yapiri.ttf?v=2') format('truetype'); font-display: swap; }
Use font-family: 'Yapiri', serif; on any element containing PUA characters U+F1CA0–U+F1CFF.
WOFF2 is smaller and faster. List it first in the src declaration so modern browsers use it automatically.

Desktop: double-click kokborok_yapiri.kmp — Keyman will open and prompt you to install. Click Install.
