Same problem when using Fontello: http://fontello.com/ There is no problem with other open-source fonts. It looks like the positions in the SVG files are off.
CC @parkerbennett Hey Parker, anyone ever complained to you about this issue? Have you played with 'font builder' apps such as Fontello or Icomoon?
I’ve converted all the characters into individual svg files and will be uploading soon. I haven’t tested yet but you should be able to use those to import into icomoon.
I need to do some testing on the font itself to see if I can correct the problem. My goal was to have the icons be a bit larger than text on the same line, but in doing so they are currently drawn outside the boundaries of the ascender and descender. I think this is what’s causing the problem.
the individual svg files are drawn in a 3000 pt square as opposed to 2048 units.

That's exactly it, I think.
In the interim, if you email me the subset of icons you need, I can send you a customized version. parker@stackicons.com
Thank you, Parker!

Has anyone tried to import Stackicons-Social-Minimal.svg and Stackicons-Social.svg to services like icomoon and Fontastic? The icons are clipped when viewed in those apps, and when exported, the drawing of the icon is off to the right within its element and gets strangely clipped on mouseover. Really strange. See below...
The reason why I use Icomoon/Fontastic is simply that I don't need all the social icons in the 'minimal' set and need some from the full set. The font files are rather heavy as they are, I want to hand-pick. Hence why I am generating new font files.
