File Types Icons
Document, file format, and file action icons
Select an icon to view details
File-type icons represent document formats and file actions — PDF, image, spreadsheet, archive, and code-file glyphs, alongside upload, download, and attach action icons. Use the format-specific icons in file browsers and upload previews so users can identify a file type at a glance, and the action icons (upload/download/attach) for the surrounding UI. Pairs naturally with the tables category for file-manager list views.
Frequently Asked Questions
What file formats have dedicated icons?⌄
Common formats including PDF, image, spreadsheet, archive/zip, and code files, each with a distinct glyph so a file list is scannable without reading extensions.
Is there a generic "file" icon for formats without a dedicated glyph?⌄
Yes, a blank document icon covers any format not explicitly represented, so a file browser never has to render nothing.
What action icons pair with the file-type glyphs?⌄
Upload, download, and attach/paperclip icons are included in this category, sharing the same visual style as the format-specific file icons.
