Free check mark SVG files

One mark, many jobs

A check mark, or tick, is two strokes: a short one down to the right and a long one up to the right. Here the long stroke is a little over twice the length of the short one and the two meet at a right angle, which is the proportion most people draw by hand. The bold mark has square ends, the rounded and thin ones have round ends, and the brush mark thins out at its tip.

On its own a tick is a single solid piece with no inside to weed, so it can be cut tiny: the bold mark at 15 mm across still has strokes 2.8 mm wide. That makes it good for planner stickers, chore charts and labels.

Ticks in circles and boxes

The solid circle, the solid box and the seal have the tick cut out of them, so the surface behind shows through as the mark. They are one piece each. The green check mark is the same idea in two layers, for when you want a white tick on a green ground whatever the surface.

The check box with a tick and the tick in a ring are open shapes with the mark welded on. For a chart with many boxes, copy the empty part of the box in your cutting software and add ticks only where you need them.

How to open the files

• Cricut Design Space: choose Upload, pick the SVG, and add it to the canvas. Set the width you want; the shape is already welded.
• Silhouette Studio: Designer Edition and above open the SVG. The free Basic Edition does not, so open the DXF instead.
• LightBurn, xTool Creative Space and Glowforge: import the SVG, then set the layer to cut, score or engrave.
• Inkscape, Illustrator and Affinity: open the SVG. It is a plain filled path, so you can recolour it, add a stroke or combine it with your own work.
• Printing or sublimation: use the PNG, which has a transparent background.

Each design page lists the file’s narrowest part at seven sizes, so you can tell whether it will survive at the size you plan to cut.
