Dear fellow designers/developers

I have created 8 extra glyphicons for my bootstrap website. Uploaded them to icomoon and downloaded them as font, this all works perfect.

I am able to add my font to my CSS and use it in HTML withou any problem, but I want to use the font as extra Glyphicons.

How can I do this?

add css file link to your page

 <link href='/path/to/font-awesome.css' rel='stylesheet'/> 

use css classes mentioned in font-awesome.css stating with 'fa-'

Steps to use font-Awsome

  1. Download Font-Awsome
  2. Extract .zip file
  3. after extracting, you will get folder i.e. font-awesome-4.5.0
  4. Add this folder by drag and drop to your content or bootstrap folder
  5. Add font-awesome.css file as a reference in your web-page

    <link href="~/Content/font-awesome-4.5.0/css/font-awesome.css" rel="stylesheet" /> 
  6. get icons as told by @G Ravinder i.e.

    <i></i> <span></span> 

That's all :-)
