Typography & Fonts

Character motifs, Google Fonts, and how text survives export.

Character motifs use Google Fonts. Favycons loads the exact family + weight + style picked.

On export, <text> is converted to <path> outlines. The exported icon doesn't depend on the target environment having your font — it renders identically everywhere.

If a font change appears to do nothing, the font likely failed to load and the browser is falling back to a default. Try a different font or refresh.

At small sizes

  • Heavier weights survive 16–32px; light weights vanish.
  • Thin serifs and fine details disappear.
  • If glyph edges feel cramped, increase padding.
