Font Awesome

[Tom Murphy]

Hi All

At the recent DAPCON in Brisbane, I presented a talk on our implementation of Font Awesome.

Font Awesome is a Font Icon library - Icon fonts are fonts that contain symbols and glyphs instead of letters or numbers. They're popular for web designers since you can style them with CSS the same way as regular text.

Whilst DAW provide some font icons with the CSS Styles, we needed a bigger range of icons and Font Awesome to cover that and pretty easy to implement, very similar to DAW's implementation of their own icons.

Attached is the workspace, in the root folder is a .pdf with more details, including where to download the library from and where to put it, as it's very large and I didn't want to put in in the .zip file.
