Questions about Junge
Answered from its licence, Google Fonts and each app’s own font list

Yes. Junge is under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 , which allows commercial use at any scale, logos, websites, apps and PDFs included; a changed version may not be called “Junge”.
How do I download and install Junge?
FontKind doesn’t host Junge’s files: it comes free from Google Fonts . On its page there, choose Get font, then Download all, and unzip the file. It holds a single font file. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open, Word included.
Is Junge in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Junge isn’t one of Microsoft 365’s cloud fonts. Installed, it is in Word’s font menu and PowerPoint’s. For someone who hasn’t installed it, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.

Is Junge in Figma?
Yes: Junge is in Figma’s font menu, in the browser and the desktop app, with nothing to install.
