Using academicons in the ShareLatex plataform #5

Given that this package has special system settings for being used, have you already contacted to the ShareLaTeX support team in order to properly set this package in their system? If so, what should I do to use this package in ShareLaTeX properly?

The academicons requires the Academicons font to be installed on the system where the package is installed. Therefore, the ShareLaTeX platform would have to install the font in addition to the package.

I have found an easy way to use this package in the ShareLaTeX platform. It is described below.

Firstly, it is necessary to upload the academicons.sty and academicons.ttf files to the desired ShareLaTeX project.

Afterwards, in case the academicons.sty file content have the following command

\newfontfamily{\AI}{Academicons}

change it to:

\newfontfamily{\AI}{academicons.ttf}

Try the following inputs to your main.tex document in order to test this LaTeX package setup:

\usepackage{academicons}

and inside its "document" environtment, enter:

\aiicons{lattes}

Finally, check if the following icon:

Lattes Logo

If so, you are all set!
