Iconographer overview

Iconographer is our own icon-creation tool, and we’ve decided to share it with you, because designing application icons or customizing icons can be a tedious and time-consuming task–especially application icons, as you need to also create the related “Document” icons, “Disk Image” icon, and possibly even a folder icon–not forgetting that different operating systems have different guidelines for how app icons should look. We’ve included templates and styles to simply the process of creating icons for OS X/macOS, Windows, and Web icons (such as favicons and Apple Touch icons).

Iconographer supports you through every step of the icon-creation process:

  • Previewer
    • The macOS Dock (it actually replaces the Iconographer icon)
    • The macOS About Box
    • A Mac App Store sample
    • QuickLook Preview
    • iPhone 6 home screen and App Store
    • iPad 2 home screen
    • Contact sheet showing the icon at various sizes
  • Editor
    • Layers, with blending modes, opacity and clipping
    • Layer dimensions are actually displayed in the layer while you’re moving it around (awesome)
    • Platform specific shapes, such as the macOS circle, rounded rect, Windows tile and iOS rounded square
    • Multiple 1-Click Styles, for not only each icon, but also each platform
    • A choice of 5 different backgrounds
    • Shared graphic layers, set the image once and it’s used across all the icons
    • Shared colors and gradients; helping to keep your icon’s identity across platforms
    • Shared labels; perfect for any text you need on the icon
    • Increase readability; keeps legibility of text at smaller sizes
    • Snapping guidelines, help to keep the elements in line
    • Overview; provides a small preview helping to simulate what the icon will look like at smaller sizes
  • Generator
    • Formats include; ICNS, Iconset, Windows ICO, TIFF, and PNG
    • Highly compressed icons; up-to 75% smaller than competing applications
    • Choice over which sizes are included in the exported icons
    • ICNS files can support Mac OS X 10.0 through to macOS 10.12 Sierra
    • Windows ICO files can support Windows 95 up to Windows 10
    • Export all platforms in one click by selecting “Build all selected icons”
    • Bitmap image export; control over file format, image size, and resolution
