What are Webdings and Wingdings?

Webdings and Wingdings are both font sets that consist of symbols and icons rather than standard alphanumeric characters. These fonts were designed to provide a way to incorporate graphical symbols directly into text documents without the need for separate images.

Using these font sets allows users to easily add decorative elements, icons, and visual cues to their documents, presentations, or designs. For instance, each character in these fonts corresponds to a different symbol, which can be used to convey ideas or enhance the visual appeal of the content. They are particularly useful for designers or anyone looking to represent concepts visually without relying on external graphic files.

In contrast, the other options do not accurately describe Webdings and Wingdings. They are not image formats, templates, or software applications; instead, their primary function is as a source of unique typographical designs within the context of font sets.
