Select your preferred font from our patched fonts and follow the provided instructions.

Tweak Mode lets you customize your patched fonts to suit your needs. You can include or exclude specific icon packs from a selected font using the corresponding index file. This index file, available in CSV format, makes it easy to search for glyphs with tools like fzf and can be seamlessly integrated with other tools for enhanced functionality.

Forge Mode allows you to create your own iconic fonts by converting SVG icons into a font format.

Here is a list of all all patched fonts that we support.

Here is a list of all all icon packs that we support.

Iconic Fonts includes two types of icons: normal and special. Normal icons use 2 glyphs and are centered vertically and horizontally within the font block. Special icons do not follow any specific rule and may use single or double glyph blocks; for some, is determined by the SVG coordinates.

Similar to Powerline and Powerline Extra Symbols, Modern Line Symbols consist of unique glyphs used in status bars for window managers or terminals. They include a variety of icons needed for status bars and come in two types: positive space glyphs, which are solid and fill the design area, and negative space glyphs, which are hollow or outlined, using the surrounding space to create the design. With over 70 shapes to choose from, you can combine these to create more than 1,000 distinct glyph shapes. For a list of these glyphs, see the negative and positive space-glyphs files in the txt directory.

Searching for glyphs using fzf is a breeze. Just download the index.csv and run fzf with the index path to begin your search.

column -mts ',' -o $'\t' path_to_the_index_file.csv |
fzf -d '\t' --with-nth=1,2,3 --header-lines=1 --bind 'enter:close+execute(echo {1})'

The 65,535-glyph limit in TrueType and OpenType fonts is due to their use of 16-bit numbers for glyph counts. Since 16 bits can represent numbers up to 65,535 (2^16 − 1), this is the maximum glyph count.

In the future, we will optimize the icon packs by removing duplicates and unnecessary glyphs (icons). For example, instead of including all logos in a single pack, we will create a new pack that consolidates repeated icons. If different packs contain the same icons, we will merge them into a single pack, as seen with the similar icons from Lucide, Feather, and Tabler. This approach will help us add new icons while staying within the glyph limit.
