About the Research Document Magnifier black outline icon

A portrait sheet with a folded top-left corner carries five ruled text lines, and a magnifying glass with an angled handle sits over its upper right, lens overlapping the page edge. Together they stand for investigation, close reading, fact-checking and analysis. Use it on academic library pages, market research reports, audit and compliance tools, search-result empty states and case study slides.

The document fills most of the frame and its horizontal lines give the icon its texture, while the round lens breaks the rectangle silhouette so the shape stays recognizable in a toolbar. It pairs with book, chart, microscope and file search icons. At 16px, drop to three text lines if you edit the SVG.

This is the black outline version of the research document magnifier icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.

It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
