Starting with version 6.4, you can now download a Pro Kit and use it in your desktop applications just like Font Awesome - including any custom icons you added to the Kit.
We’ll cover what files and directories are contained in the Kit download and details of using ligature-based fonts and SVG in the Kit.
What's in the Kit Download?
Our Kit download contains all the regular Font Awesome assets. If you have custom icons in your Kit, you'll find these additional files included in the download zip:
Folders & files | What They Are |
---|---|
/otfs/Font Awesome Kit [kit-ID]-Regular-400 | Font face containing all of your custom icons |
/svgs/custom-icons/ | Folder containing all your custom icons as SVGs |
Install the Ligature-based Font Files for Kit Custom Icons
You can install the Font Awesome font faces just like you usually do when getting set up, and you'll follow the same steps to add the custom icon font.
And if you haven't already, you'll want enable ligatures in your apps to use our easy "type in the icon name" method for adding icons.
Using Kit Custom Icons as SVGs
As with our regular icons, you can add your processed custom icon SVG files into most vector-friendly desktop design apps, like Figma, Sketch, and Adobe Illustrator. Just remember to make a copy to work with, so you don't edit the original file!
