Downloading the original Icon Theme

The original source for Paper Icon Theme can be found here. You can clone the latest version from the git repository:

git clone https://github.com/snwh/paper-icon-theme.git

Using the Source

There are scripts to simplify the rendering process; to run them (and edit icons) you will need:

• inkscape
• python3
• gtk-engine-murrine (optional)

To render new icons from their source SVG files, run the following:

python render-bitmaps.py

If it's throwing an error, the script may not be executable, try:

chmod +x render-bitmaps.py

This script will look in the source directory (../src/*) and render the respective icons (provided there are changes).

Installation

Simple, you just run the script from the root of the source folder:

./INSTALL

Keep in mind that you need to have the original Paper Icon Theme for some symbolic links to work.
