Use

This project is a dependency of code-gov-style. After updating this font, a new version of this package must be released and the @code.gov/code-gov-font version must be updated in code-gov-style. Follow our Component Release instructions for details on how to do this. *Note: After these steps have been completed, you must run npm install then run npm run update-font in code-gov-style to finish the font update. And finally, in code-gov-style, update the icon list in the _fontello.scss file to add any new icons and delete any that were removed. You can find the icon unicode character ( { content: '\f253'; } ) info in the code-gov.svg file by searching for the name of the icon you just added. This info is also on the fontello site under the Customize Codes tab.

Fontello has some documentation on How to save and load projects that has additional info for reference.
