I don't know for sure, but the KLI does not use the pIqaD officially, I
think.
look at this list's FAQ at
http://www.thomtech.com/~dspeers/klingon/faq.htm

You can get that font on many other Startrek-related pages whithout paying
$18
I have three different font types, I can send them to you if you want.

I think the same way. When I write something in "romanized", people
just look stupidly at me because letters are capitalized in the middle of a
word.
But when I write it in pIqaD, most people come and say,
Oh, that looks cool, what is it...?
The KLI should do something about this, or talk to Marc Okrand to make at
least
the chart on "one of the KLI pages" be the _official_ decyphering table...
