+# Icons for the use with authorarchive
+
+This directory contains icons that might be used together with
+the authorarchive LaTeX style. The use of these icons is
+restricted by the respective copyright holders.
+
+## ORCID iD Icon
+
+The iD icon ([vector_iD_icon.svg](vector_iD_icon.svg)) was obtained in
+SVG format from
+<https://orcid.org/trademark-and-id-display-guidelines> and converted
+to PDF ([vector_iD_icon.pdf](vector_iD_icon.pdf)) using
+[Inkscape](https://inkscape.org). According to the use and (display
+guidelines)[https://orcid.org/trademark-and-id-display-guidelines] of
+the ORCID iD icons, it can be used for displaying ORCID identifiers.
+
+An alternative to including the iD icon as PDF image is the
+[academicons](https://ctan.org/pkg/academicons) package. At the time
+of writing, this package requires xe(la)tex or lua(la)tex while the
+[authorarchive](https://ctan.org/pkg/authorarchive) packages requires
+pdf(la)tex.
