Download Military Symbol

Save the Military Symbol from symbol.army as an image file — as vector graphic or as pixel image.

Save Military Symbol as Image

Press Download Symbol as Image File in the footer of the Main Window:

symbol.army renders the symbol currently shown in the Main Window, in the image format and size set under Options, and your browser saves it as mss-symbol.<extension> — for example mss-symbol.png. Where the file goes depends on your browser’s download settings.

Supported Image Formats

The default format is PNG. Choose the format under Options before downloading.

Vector Formats

Vector graphics stay sharp at any size — the best choice for printing and for documents.

Format	Use
SVG	Web pages, current versions of Word and PowerPoint, graphics editors
EMF	Older Microsoft Office versions and other Windows applications
XAML	Windows (WPF) application development

Pixel Formats

Format	Use
PNG	Default; suitable for most uses
JPEG	Photo-oriented applications
BMP	Legacy Windows applications
ICO	Windows icons

Set Format and Size

Open the Options:
Scroll to the Export Format section and set the image format and the size in pixels:

Image Export Settings of Military Symbol

The settings are applied at once and kept for your next visit. All options are described under Export Format.

Hint: The download always uses the pixel size set under Export Format, also for vector formats. The Symbol Size under Symbol Format only changes how large the symbol is shown in the Main Window.

Other Ways to Use a Symbol

To paste a symbol straight into Word or PowerPoint without saving a file, see Copy/Paste Symbol.
To send a symbol so that it can be edited further, share it via URL. An image file cannot be opened in symbol.army again.
