Guifx v2 Transports is a specialized icon-based TrueType font (TTF) designed specifically for user interface (UI) designers, AV integrators, and software developers. Instead of traditional alphanumeric letters, typing on your keyboard with this font scales and renders 58 commonly used media transport symbols.
These clean, vector-based glyphs map perfectly to control interfaces for music hardware, media players (like foobar2000 scripts), web applications, and smart automation systems (such as Crestron and AMX panels). Key Features & Included Glyphs
The font packs all essential commands needed to manage media playback, directional navigation, and system status variables:
Playback Controls: Play, Pause, Stop, Record, Fast Forward, Rewind, Mute, Next, and Previous.
Navigation: Up, Down, Left, Right, Jump Forward, Jump Backward, Slow Forward, and Slow Backward.
System & Automation: Power, Eject, Refresh, Clear/Close, Checkmark, and Hourglass.
UI Elements: Star, Heart, Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down, Plus, and Minus. How and Where to Download
You can download the package across several major font distribution repositories:
For General Use: Get the raw TrueType file from CDNFonts Guifx v2 Transports or check the designer profile via Dafont Guifx.
For Web Implementation: If you are embedding the icons directly into a website UI, you can grab pre-configured @font-face CSS kits via Fonts CDNFonts. Installation & Implementation Guide 1. Desktop Installation (Windows & Mac)
To use the icons inside software like Photoshop, Illustrator, or Crestron VisionTools Pro-e: Download the .zip archive from your chosen repository. Extract the file to find Guifx v2 Transports.ttf. Windows: Right-click the .ttf file and select Install.
Mac: Double-click the file to open Font Book and click Install Font. 2. Web Development Implementation
To deploy these symbols as crisp, lightweight vector web assets without relying on bulky image files, embed them directly using CSS:
Use code with caution.
/Apply the family to your media controller elements */ .transport-button { font-family: ‘Guifx v2 Transports’, sans-serif; font-size: 24px; } Use code with caution. 3. How to Type the Symbols
Because the font assigns shapes to standard keys, you will need a keyboard map guide. Once the font is active in your application:
Typing a lowercase “p” or “q” will typically map to the Play or Pause glyphs.
Typing capital letters or numbers will generate directionals, skips, or power toggles.
Tip: Use your operating system’s native utility (like Character Map on Windows or Glyphs Panel in Adobe software) to visually scan and click the exact symbol you want to drop into your canvas. License Warning
Always verify your project constraints before deployment. While Guifx v2 Transports is readily accessible for personal prototyping and design mockups, some hosts tag it under custom freeware or unknown designer terms. If you plan to ship the font inside a commercial software application or physical smart-home hardware control panel, verify the license limits within your package download to ensure compliance.
