Need Help Creating A Icon Font Using Adobe Illustrator

[sagnik]

I want to create a svg icon font in illustrator. And I did it, but I want to create a transparent icon in illustrator. I mean, I want to create an icon like "fa-facebook-square" of FontAwesome. It's main part ("f" icon) is completely transparent and has a white background. I want to create a avg icon like this. How can I do it?

I don't really understand what you are looking for.

 

You need a Facebook svg icon with normal Facebook color into the square, but white F? or just transparent square but the white F?

 

Can't you just do it through css, or any styling code?

Actually, I want to make a copy of "fa-facebook-square" of "font-awesome".

What I'll do with this? I've never worked with svg & Adobe Illustrator. How I can create my own icon set font with only one svg?
