The clipboard icon typically looks like a rectangular piece of paper or a clipboard with a piece of paper attached to it. It is a common symbol used in computer applications and operating systems to represent the copy and paste functions. The icon is usually located in a toolbar or menu option where users can quickly access it to copy and paste text, images, or other files. The clipboard icon's appearance may vary depending on the software or operating system being used, but it often features a document with a jagged top edge and may have a clipboard attached to it.
