About this icon

Use the Document icon

The Document icon from Carbon Icons fits naturally in document management systems, admin panels, file explorers, CMS dashboards, cloud storage UIs, and PDF viewers. Its fill style makes it ideal for interface components and product UI.

Open it in IconStash to set stroke color via presets or a custom hex value, choose an exact pixel size (16–512px), control stroke width (0.1–3px), and preview against dark, light, or checkered backgrounds before downloading.

Export formats

Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.

All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Document icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Carbon is IBM's design system, and Document reflects its enterprise-first constraints: flat geometry, no gradients, and shapes that survive being shrunk into dense data grids. It is a common choice for regulated, data-heavy products where clarity outranks personality.

UX best practices

In file explorers, document lists and CMS dashboards, put the Document icon immediately to the left of the filename so the eye scans one straight line. If it triggers a destructive action, keep a confirmation step — a delete or archive glyph is too easy to hit by accident in a dense list.

Use in your project

React / npm — Carbon Icons

npm install @carbon/icons-react

import { Document } from '@carbon/icons-react';

// JSX usage:
<Document size={24} />

Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Document icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
