Fallback while it loads

Until Nippo loads, this sets Arial in its place at 103.1% of its size, so running text keeps Nippo’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.

08 / Questions

Questions about Nippo

Answered from its licence, Fontshare and each app’s own font list

Is Nippo free for commercial use?

Yes. Nippo is under the ITF Free Font License 2.0 , which allows commercial use, logos you can register as trademarks and your own websites and apps. But its files may not be changed, not even subset, nor passed outside your organisation.

How do I download and install Nippo?

FontKind doesn’t host Nippo’s files: it comes free from Fontshare , Indian Type Foundry’s library, and only from there. Download it from its page there and unzip the file. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open.

Is Nippo in Microsoft Word?

Not until you install it: Nippo isn’t one of Microsoft 365’s cloud fonts. Installed, it is in Word’s font menu and PowerPoint’s. On Windows, its weights beyond Regular and Bold show as fonts of their own, such as Nippo ExtraLight and Nippo Medium. For someone who hasn’t installed it, save it as a PDF, which carries the font with it.

Is Nippo in Google Docs?

Probably not: the More fonts list in Docs draws on Google Fonts, and Nippo comes from Fontshare. Docs can’t add a font of your own, so set it in an app on your computer, such as Word, instead.

Is Nippo in Figma?

Not built in: Figma includes Google Fonts, and Nippo comes from Fontshare. Install it on your computer and Figma lists it.

How many weights does Nippo have?

Nippo comes in five weights: ExtraLight (200), Light (300), Regular (400), Medium (500) and Bold (700).

Who designed Nippo?

Nippo was designed by Manushi Parikh. Manushi Parikh also made Chillax and Pencerio.
