Quotedown

The quotedown icon represents a quotation or a cited passage with an arrow pointing downwards. It is often used in contexts where users need to reference or cite a source and indicate a continuation or expansion of the quote. The icon is designed to be simple and easily recognizable.

The quotedown icon is commonly used in word processing software, document editors, and citation management tools. For example, it may appear in a toolbar or menu, allowing users to quickly insert a quotation or citation with a downward arrow. In online publishing and blogging platforms, the quotedown icon may be used to highlight a notable passage or quote with a continuation.

From a UX perspective, the quotedown icon communicates a sense of reference or citation with a continuation. When users encounter this icon, they understand that they can click on it to access a quoted passage or citation with more information. The icon's simplicity and universality make it an effective way to provide users with a clear call to action.

Quotedown is one of 2,125 icons in WebHostingHub Glyphs, made by WebHostingHub and released under Open Font License. It is drawn on a 1024 × 768 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 QuotedownIcon to components/icons/whh-quotedown.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 QuotedownIcon 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 Quotedown icon, or any of 2,125 WebHostingHub Glyphs icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 1024 × 768 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. 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="Quotedown", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. QuotedownIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <QuotedownIcon 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. The Open Font License allows commercial use; the icons can't be sold on their own. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: Open Font License 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 WebHostingHub Glyphs, WebHostingHub and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are document, text, arrow, reference, quote and citation. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Quotedown in another set.
