Frequently asked questions
What the Pen icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The pen icon represents a pen, a writing instrument used to create written or drawn content. This symbol is often used to indicate creativity, writing, or artistic activities.
In real-world applications, the pen icon appears in various software and platforms related to writing, design, and art. For example, it may be used in word processing software to represent a writing tool or in graphic design software to indicate a drawing or painting feature.
From a UX perspective, the pen icon communicates a sense of creativity and self-expression. It helps users understand that a particular tool or feature allows them to create or edit content, making it easier for them to achieve their goals.
Pen is one of 3,800 icons in Noto Emoji, made by Google Inc and released under Apache 2.0. It is drawn on a 128 × 128 grid.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds PenIcon to components/icons/noto-pen.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed PenIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.
Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Pen icon, or any of 3,800 Noto Emoji icons, and install it from a prompt.
It's multicolor, so it keeps its own colors.
Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 128 × 128 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.
Yes. It keeps its own colors in light and dark mode, so check it against both backgrounds. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.
Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Pen", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. PenIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <PenIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
Yes. Apache 2.0 allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
No visible credit is required: Apache 2.0 only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Noto Emoji, Google Inc and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
8 other libraries draw an icon called Pen. The Other libraries section on this page shows each one, so you can compare them and open the one that fits your style.
Its tags are design, icon, writing, art and create. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Pen in another set.
Noto Emoji draws many icons in several styles: Light next to the default. Open the library and pick a style above the grid to see Pen's siblings in it.
