There is no ttf version of this font present! So we cannot create a new
package.

So I suggest one of the two things:
- you create your own yfrak.ttf font using fontforge and include it in
  your package
- you create your own yfrak.ttf font and make a ttf-yfrak package
- you ask whoever to create the ttf font and maintain a package

Unfortunately we are missing the ability to actually check that the
created font is ok, and the time to maintain a special case.

Thanks a lot and all the best

Norbert
