I downloaded "Office 2010 Add-In: Icons Gallery" that is docx file with two backstage tabs that hold icons.
How can I extract the icons or use them in my application?

Select Insert > Icons. Use the Search box near the top left corner to look for the icon you want, or browse by scrolling. Choose an icon and then click Insert at the lower right. Insert multiple icons at the same time by clicking each of them before clicking Insert.
Using Microsoft Office Tools to Restore Missing Icons Another way to fix the Microsoft Office icons is to approach Office Tools and open Microsoft Office Picture Manager. Click the Help option leading you to Detect and Repair in the drop-down menu. Click Restore my Shortcuts while Repairing.
I use ImageMso quite frequently in my Excel development. Having stumbled on another post, I took it a step further and put a package together to visually search, extract and save icons from Microsoft Excel as a file or copy and paste (with alpha channel transparency) to another application. I also compiled a list of 8,899 distinct ImageMso names from the various sources. I hope others can find this useful.

I suppose the first answer meant to say, that the icons are only meant to be used within Office; that is with Office add-ins and such.
They can be referred with Office Fluent UI definition XML for example. So the distribution form serves as visible "Ahh I want that icon in my add-in" reaction and then choosing the specified ID to use in "imageMso" attribute.
Like this (see proper full XML in Office Fluent UI customization)
<button id="Button1" imageMso="HappyFace" size="" label="Large Button Face" onAction="HandleOnAction" /> If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
