Description
The academicons package provides access in (La)TeX to 146 high quality icons of online academic profiles included in the free Academicons font. This package works with both Xe(La)TeX or Lua(La)TeX by using fontspec to load the included font, as well as with pdf(La)TeX by loading a Type 1 converted format of the original font.
The Academicons font was designed by James Walsh and released^1 under the open SIL Open Font License^2. This package is a redistribution of the free Academicons font with specific bindings for (La)TeX. It is inspired and based on the fontawesome^3 package.
Usage
\aiicon |
The generic \aiicon macro takes as mandatory argument the ⟨name⟩ of the desired icon. Icons can also be accessed directly by their respective macro. For example, \aiicon{googlescholar} yields the same result as \aiGoogleScholar. The full list of icons with their respective names and direct commands can be found in the manual.
