Questions about Picaflor
Answered from its licence, Tunera Type Foundry and each app’s own font list
Is Picaflor free for commercial use?
Yes. Picaflor 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 “Picaflor”.
How do I download and install Picaflor?
Picaflor comes free from Tunera Type Foundry . Download it from its page there and unzip the file. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each TTF or OTF file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open. The web fonts this page uses are FontKind’s own copy, kept with its licence file .
Is Picaflor in Google Docs?
Probably not: the More fonts list in Docs draws on Google Fonts, and Picaflor comes from Tunera Type Foundry. Docs can’t add a font of your own, so set it in an app on your computer, such as Word, instead.

Picaflor comes in one weight, Regular (400). Ask for bold and most apps thicken the letters themselves: a faux bold, not a drawn one.
