This project is deprecated in favor of icon-font-to-png
This project is deprecated in favor of the new, refactored and more universal icon-font-to-png. Please use it instead, as it fixes all issues this version has (icons being cut off, outdated font, etc.) and is being actively maintained. It also comes with a wrapper script for backwards-compatibility with this version.
Font Awesome to PNG
This program allows you to extract the awesome [Font Awesome] (http://fortawesome.github.com/Font-Awesome/) icons as PNG images of specified size.
Usage
font-awesome-to-png.py [-h] [--color COLOR] [--filename FILENAME]
[--font FONT] [--css CSS] [--list] [--size SIZE]
icon [icon ...]
positional arguments:
icon The name(s) of the icon(s) to export (or "ALL" for
all icons)
optional arguments:
--color COLOR Color (HTML color code or name, default: black)
--filename FILENAME The name of the output file (it must end with
".png"). If all files are exported, it is used as a
prefix.
--font FONT Font file to use (default: fontawesome-webfont.ttf)

the predefined list)

The internal icon list is matched to Font Awesome 4.1.0. To use a later/different version, use font-awesome.css from the Font Awesome GitHub repository.
