About this icon

Use the Paper Outline icon

The Paper Outline icon from Material Design Icons fits naturally in document management systems, admin panels, file explorers, CMS dashboards, cloud storage UIs, and PDF viewers. Its outline style makes it ideal for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical.

Open it in IconStash to set stroke color via presets or a custom hex value, choose an exact pixel size (16–512px), control stroke width (0.1–3px), and preview against dark, light, or checkered backgrounds before downloading.

Export formats

Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.

All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Paper Outline icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Paper Outline comes from Google's Material Design icon set, which ships five coordinated themes: Outlined, Rounded, Sharp, Two Tone and Filled. Outlined is the default for dense UI, Filled reads better for selected or active states, and all five share identical geometry — so you can swap themes without shifting your layout by a pixel.

UX best practices

In file explorers, document lists and CMS dashboards, put the Paper Outline icon immediately to the left of the filename so the eye scans one straight line. If it triggers a destructive action, keep a confirmation step — a delete or archive glyph is too easy to hit by accident in a dense list.

Use in your project

React / npm — Material Design Icons

npm install @mui/icons-material

import PaperOutlineOutlined from '@mui/icons-material/PaperOutlineOutlined';

// JSX usage:
<PaperOutlineOutlined fontSize="small" />

Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Paper Outline icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
