This project is deprecated in favor of icon-font-to-png

This project is deprecated in favor of the new, refactored and more universal icon-font-to-png. Please use it instead, as it fixes all issues this version has (icons being cut off, outdated font, etc.) and is being actively maintained. It also comes with a wrapper script for backwards-compatibility with this version.

Font Awesome to PNG

This program allows you to extract the awesome [Font Awesome] (http://fortawesome.github.com/Font-Awesome/) icons as PNG images of specified size.

Usage

font-awesome-to-png.py [-h] [--color COLOR] [--filename FILENAME]
                       [--font FONT] [--css CSS] [--list] [--size SIZE]
                       icon [icon ...]

positional arguments:
  icon                 The name(s) of the icon(s) to export (or "ALL" for
                       all icons)

optional arguments:
  --color COLOR        Color (HTML color code or name, default: black)
  --filename FILENAME  The name of the output file (it must end with
                       ".png"). If all files are exported, it is used as a
                       prefix.
  --font FONT          Font file to use (default: fontawesome-webfont.ttf)
  --css CSS            Path to the CSS file defining icon names (instead of
                       the predefined list)
  --list               List available icon names and exit
  --size SIZE          Icon size in pixels (default: 16)

hidden optional arguments:
 --list-update         List available icon names and codes in format suitable
                       for updating the program source.

To use the program, you need the Font Awesome TTF file, which is available in [Font Awesome Github repository] (https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome).

The internal icon list is matched to Font Awesome 4.1.0. To use a later/different version, use font-awesome.css from the Font Awesome GitHub repository.

Examples

Export the "play" and "stop" icons as 24x24 pixels images:

font-awesome-to-png.py --size 24 play stop

Export the asterisk icon as 32x32 pixels image, in blue:

font-awesome-to-png.py --size 32 --color blue asterisk

Export all icons as 16x16 pixels images:

font-awesome-to-png.py ALL
