Text File

The text-file icon represents a text file, which is a type of digital document that contains plain text. It is commonly used in computing and digital communication. The text-file icon is often used to signify a text document or a text-based file.

The text-file icon appears in various software and platforms, such as text editors like Notepad or TextEdit, and file managers like Windows Explorer or macOS Finder. It is also used in web applications, like Google Drive or Dropbox, to represent text files.

From a UX perspective, the text-file icon communicates that a file is a text-based document, which can be opened and edited using a text editor. It helps users understand the type of file and its functionality.

Text File is one of 400 icons in Kameleon color icons, made by Streamline and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 48 × 48 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 TextFileIcon to components/icons/streamline-kameleon-color-text-file.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 TextFileIcon 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 Text File icon, or any of 400 Kameleon color icons 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 48 × 48 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

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="Text File", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. TextFileIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <TextFileIcon 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.
