Glyphicons in Photoshop

user1960364 picture user1960364 · Jul 1, 2014 · Viewed 11.2k times · Source

I am trying to use Bootstrap's Glyphicons (FontAwesome) in Photoshop. I've installed the font, but how to I actually type the icon characters?

I found this page where I can copy/paste the icons listed:
http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/cheatsheet/

However, I don't see the glyphicon-stats listed on that page and I'd like to use it... It's listed on:
http://getbootstrap.com/components/

Thanks

With the help of Ravimallya's comment, I was able to find the characters in the Character Map starting at Unicode F000.

  1. Open Character Map in Windows
    • Press Win + S to search
    • Type "Character Map", or as many characters as needed.
    • Press when the Character Map program is selected.
  2. Check "Advanced View"
  3. Type F000 in "Go to Unicode :"
  4. Find/Copy the character you wish to use.
  5. Paste the character in a text object within' your editor.
  6. Ensure the text object is set to use the FontAwesome font.
