Description

PCB & Front-Panel Icon Font

Make your PCB silkscreens, front panels, manuals, and UI mockups look clean and consistent with a purpose-built TrueType font of switch symbols. Instead of hunting for SVGs or re-drawing tiny icons, just type the character and get a crisp, scalable switch symbol—perfect at both 1–2 mm silkscreen sizes and high-dpi print.

Highlights

• Comprehensive set of switch icons: momentary & latching, SPST/SPDT/DPDT variants, push-buttons, toggles, slide & rotary, DIP & tactile styles, on/off states, NO/NC, multi-position selectors, and more.

• Optimized for PCB silkscreen: balanced stroke weights, tight spacing, and pixel-hinted shapes for legibility at small sizes.

• Fast workflow: symbols are mapped to keyboard characters (Wingdings-style) so you can place icons anywhere text is allowed.

• Vector crispness everywhere: scale without loss in CAD, EDA, DTP, and design tools.

• Consistent look across documents, gerbers (via outlines), panel engravings, datasheets, stickers, and UI mockups.

Perfect for

• PCB silkscreen legends and reference graphics

• Front-panel markings (print, laser, CNC, UV)

• Assembly guides, datasheets, manuals, and training materials

• UX wireframes and schematic notes

• Quick icons in CorelDRAW, Illustrator, Figma, office apps, and EDA exports

• ALO Switch Symbols — Regular (TTF)

• Curated switch families with open/closed, pressed/released, multi-throw, and multi-pole variants

2. Select ALO Switch Symbols in your app’s font list.

3. Type characters to insert icons.

4. Convert to curves/outlines before manufacturing or CAM export (recommended).

FAQ

Will it work in my EDA tool?
Yes—anywhere you can place text. For gerbers/CAM, convert text to curves/outlines on export.

Are the icons editable?
Yes—after converting text to curves you can edit nodes like any vector.

Can I request a new symbol or variant?
Absolutely. Send your request and we’ll prioritize popular additions in updates.
