Fonts are more convenient to use, but they usually don't display as sharply as SVGs. Generally icons should be only shown at the size they were design for. With icon fonts some sharpness is possible, even if difficult, but it still doesn't look as good as SVGs.
- tripzilch 9y agoI find this somewhat hard to believe. And if there was a difference, I'd figure it goes the other way because fonts have hinting. Also, someone itt posted a screenshot of misaligned SVG icons causing bad (blurry) anti-aliasing. Got some more info/theory on why you believe fonts display less sharp than svgs? And screenshots maybe? :) Given the choice, I'd still use SVG btw, but that's because icons aren't text, and SVG is a lot better fit.
