# ligature icon Ligature. Gentleface icon, drawn on the 16 px pixel grid. Free, MIT licensed. Page: https://gentleface.com/icons/ligature - Category: Text & formatting - Use it for: ligature, ligatures, font alternates - Tags: ligature, ligatures, fi, joined letters, typography, opentype, font features, alternates, glyphs, text - Component name: LigatureIcon - Added: 2026-11-06 - Since: version 0.4.0 - npm: `import { LigatureIcon } from '@gentleface/react';` (@gentleface/react 0.6.0) ## Files Each icon is drawn on the 16 px grid, and most also on the 20 and 24 px grids (at 24 in three weights: light 1 px, regular 1.5 px, bold 2 px). Show the drawing made for your size, or an exact multiple of it, on whole pixels: 16 for 16 and 32 px, 20 for 20 and 40, 24 for 24 and 48. A size in between or a fractional position blurs it. The code on each icon page is the 16 px drawing, an SVG with fill="currentColor"; the icon page's downloads follow its Grid switch, and npm has the 20 and 24 px drawings too. - line-round: https://gentleface.com/svg/line-round/16/ligature.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/line-round/16/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-round/32/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-round/48/ligature.png - line-soft: https://gentleface.com/svg/line-soft/16/ligature.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/line-soft/16/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-soft/32/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-soft/48/ligature.png - line-sharp: https://gentleface.com/svg/line-sharp/16/ligature.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/line-sharp/16/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-sharp/32/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-sharp/48/ligature.png - solid-round: https://gentleface.com/svg/solid-round/16/ligature.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/solid-round/16/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-round/32/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-round/48/ligature.png - solid-soft: https://gentleface.com/svg/solid-soft/16/ligature.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/solid-soft/16/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-soft/32/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-soft/48/ligature.png - solid-sharp: https://gentleface.com/svg/solid-sharp/16/ligature.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/solid-sharp/16/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-sharp/32/ligature.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-sharp/48/ligature.png The SVG of every style: https://gentleface.com/icons/ligature.json (`svg`). ## Code (line-round) The snippets are decorative (aria-hidden). For an icon that carries meaning on its own, such as an icon-only button, label the button, or give the SVG role="img" and an aria-label. For another style, take its SVG from the JSON and swap the path `d`. ### SVG ```svg ``` ### React ```tsx // Gentleface "ligature" (line-round), MIT. https://gentleface.com/icons/ligature import type { SVGProps } from 'react'; export function LigatureIcon(props: SVGProps) { return ( ); } ``` ### Vue ```vue ``` ### Svelte ```svelte ``` ### HTML img ```html
