Hi Dominik,

I want to create user documentation like here [1] or here [2] or maybe you 
remember the visualization I did on my master thesis.

So far, if you use freepic, you have to mention the author. If you get a 
premium account this is mention:

Once you obtain any subscription plan, you will have access to download a PDF 
license document every time you download an icon or pack/collection. These 
licenses will allow you to use Flaticon resources without crediting the author 
and will remain active even when your premium membership expires. 

So far I don't see any other license requirements. Does that count for apache 
license requirements?

I will have a look at google fonts but there are more icons available here.

Greetings
Florian
