Why do you want to use the SVGs? Why not just use the font in the normal way.

Best way to use the font indeed. But if you want to use the svg's, just add a cssClass to it and a css to control the size.

Because everywhere on the internet it says that fonts no longer should be used as icons (only fonts), but replaced with svg. I like Font Awesome because they have lot of icons.
