After few tries I decided to go "button-like". It is like you create a button with the shape of the original letter, but without any holes in it and draw the letter on it. First it is consistent with e.g. dialog-cancel design, second it is easy to recognise and third (and mostimportant) - when you add the holes, it makes the icon hard to read.
I think I have to *see* those "button-like" icons in a real toolbar to decide if I like the style. The PNGs saved on my desktop do not look good on a colored background, but not that bad on a light gray one opened with eog.

I followed gnome metaphors in using only "a" because "b" (bold), "i" (italics) and "u" (underline) is English based and not suggestive in many other languages (like my own, Czech). I attach 32x32 versions for quick comparison, the one-canvas ones are available at my fedora people page [1].
And I attached a preview with all the icons grouped, I find it much better for previewing.
