Hugeicons Font Generator

Icon fonts are icons that have been converted to fonts.

Usually, font means traditional letters and numbers you can type, but the icon fonts contain glyphs and symbols instead of those letters in a font file format like TTF or WOFF.

A custom Icon Font generator is a specialized tool that allows developers to create lightweight, project-specific Icon Fonts by selecting only the icons they need from a larger library, rather than loading an entire icon set.

How It Works

Instead of including thousands of unused icons in your project, a custom icon font generator lets you:

1. Browse and select the specific icons you need
2. Generate a custom font file containing only the selected icons
3. Export them in multiple font formats

Performance Benefits

• Quicker icon rendering
• Icon fonts are smaller in size so they're cached more efficiently

Developer Workflow Improvements

• Upload their own SVG icons in a single font file
• Generate platform-specific code with pre-mapped unicode values, like Flutter Dart classes
• Export icons in font formats like TTF, WOFF, WOFF2
• Publish your fonts directly to a private CDN

Yes, you can combine icons from multiple icon libraries and custom SVG icons into a single Icon Font file using Hugeicons Icon Font Generator.

You can select icons from Hugeicons, or upload your own custom SVG icons and get them in a single icon font file, fully ready to be used as icon fonts.

No, you don't need any design software to generate icon fonts.

You can simply turn the icons from Hugeicons' 59,000+ icons, or your own custom icons into Icon Fonts using the free Hugeicons Icon Font Generator.

The Icon Font Generator works entirely through your web browser, making it accessible and easy to use.

You can use the Hugeicons Icon Font Generator for absolutely free!

Hugeicons also provides a private CDN that provides storage and instant loadability for the Icon Fonts you generate.

Note that, only the Hugeicons Pro users can access the private CDN.

Feel free to check the Pro plans by Hugeicons.

Hugeicons provides Icon Fonts in TTF, WOFF, WOFF2, & EOT format.

TTF (TrueType Font): Works reliably across Windows, macOS, and Linux. Ideal for desktop applications.

WOFF (Web Open Font Format): Optimized for the web with efficient compression. Faster load times across modern browsers.

WOFF2 (Web Open Font Format 2.0): Offers superior compression for the fastest load times. Preferred format for high performance web projects.

EOT (Embedded OpenType): Ensures custom font compatibility with older versions of Internet Explorer and other legacy browsers.

Yes. Hugeicons provides a reliable and fast private CDN for delivering icons and icon fonts.

Icons are served from globally distributed servers using optimized formats like TTF, WOFF, WOFF2 and EOT for faster load times, low latency, and reliable performance.

Hugeicons Pro users can access the private CDN out of the box, as it is only available to the Pro users.

The Hugeicons CDN supports popular Icon Font formats including:

• WOFF (Web Open Font Format)
• WOFF2 (Web Open Font Format 2)
• TTF (TrueType Font) &
• EOT (Embedded OpenType)

Hugeicons does not currently support assigning custom Unicode values to icons. The Icon Font Generator automatically generates all Unicode mappings during export.

You cannot manually change or override these values within the tool. This approach assures consistent encoding and helps prevent technical conflicts across different projects.

If custom Unicode control is added in the future, it will be announced through official documentation and updates.

Keep eyes on our regular updates.

You can currently include unlimited icons in a single Icon Font file.

Any future limits or changes will be shared through official documentation and updates.

It's easy to update an existing icon font file generated with Hugeicons' Icon Font Generator. Hugeicons Pro users can add more icons to existing icon font files at any time.

First, return to the Hugeicons Icon Font Generator. Select "My Fonts" at the top-right corner. There, you will find all of your previously generated font files.

Choose the font file you want to update, click the "Load to Editor" button on the lower-left corner, and select the new icons just as you did when creating the original font file and include them in your existing icon font file.

Yes, you can use the free, open-source icons generated through Hugeicons' Icon Generator in your commercial projects.

There are no restrictions or attribution requirements for using icon fonts that are legally sourced.

For premium icons, you may need a license key to get the SVG files.

You do not need to purchase Hugeicons' Icon Font Generator as it is a free tool.

Hugeicons Pro users can store their icon font files in our private CDN and update existing icon font files to include any icons they've missed in a file.

Non Pro users can still generate unlimited icon font files through Hugeicons' Icon Font Generator.

Yes. Hugeicons is a modern alternative to IcoMoon for developers and designers who want more than just an icon font generator.

Instead of starting from individual SVG files, you get access to 59,000+ professionally designed icons, can upload your own SVGs, combine everything into a single custom icon font, and export production-ready assets for web, mobile, and desktop applications.

Both let you build a custom icon font, but they're built around different workflows.

IcoMoon is primarily an SVG editor and icon management tool. You import, edit, organize, and export icons, with the icon font as one of several export formats (alongside SVG sprites, web components, React/Vue, and more).

Hugeicons starts from a professionally designed icon library of 59,000+ icons across 10 consistent styles that you can combine with your own SVGs, turn into a custom icon font, and host on a private CDN. It also generates Flutter Dart mappings and ships the same icon system as packages for React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, React Native, Flutter, and Figma.

If you just need to convert SVGs into a font, both tools do that. If you want a production-ready icon system across a whole product, Hugeicons' workflow goes further, though if your priority is a full vector/SVG editor with live collaboration or multicolor font support, IcoMoon's toolset covers that ground more directly than Hugeicons does.

Yes, and it's usable in production at no cost. Hugeicons' free plan includes 5,900+ Stroke Rounded icons, unlimited personal and commercial use, and permanent CDN hosting via Google Cloud CDN.

IcoMoon also has a free plan, and its icon library is actually larger in raw count, with 20,000+ free icons pulled from many different open-source sets (styles vary by set, since they come from different designers). But the free plan doesn't include WOFF2 font export, CSS embedding, or any hosting; those require a paid Basic or Unlimited plan, billed on a recurring 30/90/365-day basis rather than a one-time fee. Production CDN hosting specifically requires the Unlimited plan (from $29 per 30 days).

Yes. Hugeicons automatically generates Flutter Dart mapping files when you build an icon font, so you can use your custom font directly inside a Flutter app without writing the mapping by hand.

Hugeicons is one of the more complete alternatives: a full icon platform built around a powerful font generator.

It covers 10 styles (Stroke, Solid, Bulk, Duotone, and Twotone, each in Rounded, Standard, and Sharp), all drawn by one design team, so mixing styles within a single font stays visually consistent (IcoMoon's free icons, by contrast, are sourced from many different designers, so consistency varies set to set).

The free tier gets you 5,900+ icons with permanent CDN hosting included on both Free and Pro plans. On IcoMoon, hosting isn't part of the free plan at all; you need the paid Unlimited plan for production CDN links, since Basic only covers WOFF2 export and CSS embedding, not hosting.

Yes, this is a core part of the workflow, not an add-on.

Upload your own SVGs (brand marks, logos, product-specific icons) and merge them with any Hugeicons icons in the Icon Font Generator to produce one consistent font, rather than juggling a separate file for your custom icons.

Fontello is a free, open-source tool for assembling a custom icon font: you browse icons pulled from a number of separate open-source icon sets (filterable by license), or drag in your own SVGs, then download a webfont package and self-host it.

It has no icon library of its own (the icons come from various third-party projects with different styles and licenses), and there's no CDN hosting built in, so updating the font later means re-downloading and re-deploying the files by hand each time.

Hugeicons covers the same "build a custom font" workflow through its Icon Font Generator, but starts from a single 59,000+ icon library designed in-house across 10 consistent styles, and Pro users can publish updates straight to a private CDN instead of manually re-hosting files after every change.

Yes. Both let you hand-pick icons, including your own custom SVGs, and export a font in standard formats (TTF, WOFF, WOFF2, EOT).

Fontello is fully self-hosted, free, and requires no account, which suits quick one-off projects.

Hugeicons adds a consistently designed icon library, Flutter Dart mapping generation, framework packages (React, Vue, Angular, Svelte), and optional CDN hosting on top of the same custom-font-building idea, making it better suited to teams that keep updating the font over time rather than generating it once.

Yes. Hugeicons is a modern alternative to Fontello for teams that want both a professional icon library and a custom icon font generator.

Fontello lets you build a font by selecting icons from several open-source libraries or uploading your own SVGs; Hugeicons starts with 59,000+ professionally designed icons across 10 consistent styles, lets you combine them with your own SVGs, and generates production-ready icon fonts with permanent CDN hosting, Flutter Dart mappings, and framework integrations.
