<p>&quot;Yanone Kaffeesatz&quot; was first published in 2004 and is Yanone&rsquo;s first ever finished typeface. Its
    Bold is
    reminiscent of 1920s coffee house typography, while the rather thin fonts bridge the gap to present times. Lacking
    self confidence and knowledge about the type scene, Yanone decided to publish the family for free under a <a
        href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/de/deed.en">Creative Commons License</a>. A decision that
    should turn out one of the best he ever made. It has been downloaded over 100,000 times to date, and you can witness
    Kaffeesatz use on German fresh-water gyms, Dubai mall promos and New Zealand McDonalds ads. And of course on coffee
    and foodstuff packaging and café design around the globe.</p>
<p>In 2009 he reworked much of the typeface and it got published in FontShop&rsquo;s <a
        href="http://www.fontfont.com/index.ep?aid=28">FontFont Library</a> under the new name <a
        href="http://www.yanone.de/typedesign/kava/">FF Kava</a>. You can read more about it in an extensive article by
    Yves Peters on <a href="http://fontfeed.com/archives/new-fontfonts-ff-kava-with-extra-flavour/">FontFeed</a>.</p>

<p>Updated in December 2013 with Cyrillic, designed by Sol Matas and Juan Pablo del Peral at <a
