## Download a flat icon PNG in three easy steps

### Pick One of Four Flat Styles

Core, Flex, Sharp, and Plump each have a Flat version. Same idea, different shape language.

### Set the Size Before Exporting

PNG is a fixed-size image, so pick the size you need first. Export at 300px or more if it will be resized later.

### Download as Transparent PNG

The background stays transparent, so the icon sits on any color without a white box around it.

## When to reach for a PNG

### Where PNG Is the Only Option

Canva, Google Slides, Word, and most email tools accept a pasted PNG but not a pasted SVG. That is the whole reason to reach for PNG over the vector.

### Set the Color Before You Export

A PNG bakes the color in, so recolor the icon in the browser first. Changing it afterwards means exporting again.

## Works in your tools

* [Mac App](https://home.streamlinehq.com/plugins/download): Drag and drop icons directly into any app
* [Figma](https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/852192486284901337): Browse and insert icons without leaving Figma
* [Framer](https://www.framer.com/marketplace/plugins/core-icons-by-streamline/): Use icons natively in Framer projects
* [Webflow](https://webflow.com/apps/detail/streamline-icons): Add icons directly to Webflow sites
* [VS Code](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=streamline.streamline-icons): Insert icons as SVG or JSX in editors
* [Lucid](https://lucid.co/marketplace/01f05f6d/streamline-icons-illustrations-emojis-and-elements): Add icons to your Lucidchart diagrams
* [Miro](https://miro.com/marketplace/streamline/): Drop icons into your Miro boards
* [Adobe Express](https://adobesparkpost.app.link/TR9Mb7TXFLb?addOnId=w165n33k3): Use icons in Adobe Express projects

## What Makes an Icon Flat

A flat icon is a solid, single-color shape with no outline, no gradient, and no shadow. Stripping that detail out is what keeps it readable when it is small.

Streamline draws the flat treatment across four families, so the style stays the same while the underlying shape language changes.

## Why PNG Instead of SVG

SVG is the better file in almost every way: it scales without losing quality and you can recolor it in code. But most slide and document tools will not accept one pasted in.

PNG is the practical answer there. It pastes anywhere, keeps a transparent background, and needs no conversion step.

## Pick the Size Before You Export

A PNG is a fixed grid of pixels, so enlarging one after the fact makes it blurry. The fix is to decide the final size first and export at that size or larger.

For anything that might get resized on a slide, 300px is a safe floor. Streamline exports flat icons as PNG up to 4000px.

## Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about flat icons in PNG format.

### What is a flat icon PNG?

It is a flat-style icon, meaning a solid single-color shape with no outlines or gradients, saved as a PNG image with a transparent background.

### Where can I download flat icon PNGs?

Visit [streamlinehq.com/icons/core-flat-free](https://www.streamlinehq.com/icons/core-flat-free), pick a flat set, set the size, and export as PNG.

### Are flat icon PNGs free?

Yes. The four flat styles carry 2,497 free icons between them, and Pro adds 22,215 more.

### Do flat icon PNGs have a transparent background?

Yes. The background is transparent, so the icon sits on any color without a white box behind it.

### Why does my PNG icon look blurry?

It was exported smaller than the size it is being displayed at. Export at 300px or larger before placing it, and avoid scaling a PNG up after the fact.

### Should I use PNG or SVG?

Use PNG for Canva, Google Slides, Word, and email, where a pasted SVG will not work. Use SVG anywhere you can, since it scales cleanly and stays editable. See [SVG icon sets](/svg-icons.md) for that version.

### Where can I see the flat styles in more detail?

The [flat icon sets](/flat-icons.md) page breaks down each of the four families and what each one is suited to.
