Zoom in on the vector version of those dualtone icons to find out.

Well, I came up with those patterns myself by trial and error. There are a few patterns that work.

I have paid for your service (fe...@plusx.de) ;-) A few hints would be nice …

Just copy the same pattern you see in the dual tone icons. That's what I do myself.

Could you send me this pattern, please. My own results aren't good enough on retina displays.

The proper pattern size depends on the usage size of the icon. I ’ve had best results with using an exact divider of the desired pixel size.

e.g. a 36px icon works fine with a 72px duotone pattern - a 144px pattern will also work, but this will markably enlarge the vector size. You might also encounter problems with path precision.

BTW The new importer supports transparency! You might give it a try as long as you don’t need simple font export.
