Coat of arms, whose origins date back to the Middle Ages in historical terms, is used as a symbol of prestige and belonging today as it was at that time. Today, it appears everywhere from family genealogies and city seals to sports-club crests and corporate branding.
Any designer must first master heraldic rules and color symbolism. But these are concepts that will make the designer’s time and budget quite difficult. Without putting up with all these hassles, you can create perfect designs using ready-made templates by using more than 50 coat of arms templates that we offer completely free of charge on TypeCalendar. Our templates are suitable for both amateur history buffs and professional graphic designers.

Why Use a Ready-Made Coat of Arms Template?
Ready-made templates offer several key advantages. The most important of these is the heraldic accuracy. Thus, it is difficult to design from scratch without knowing the rules of color contrast, line scan density, and division (per fess, per pale, quarterly). Thus, they are pre-coded into the basic layers of our templates. That way, you keep historical fidelity and aesthetic appeal.
Another important advantage is the time and cost savings. Drawing a vector shield from scratch, shading a helmet, or placing a motto ribbon are very time-consuming things; you don’t even need to deal with complex Bézier curves using our ready-made templates.
In addition, our ready-made templates also provide consistency. The harmonious color gamut in our templates offers consistency in printing and digital use.
File Formats for Downloading Our Templates
Thanks to our fully scalable templates, you can use it seamlessly in any application, from billboard printing to favicon sizes. Our templates come in PDF, Word, PSD, and SVG file formats. SVG versions are embedded directly into your website and do not affect page speed. The layered PSD is ready for pixel-level retouching. For our users who want to edit more practically, Canva offers the possibility to adapt the color palette according to the corporate identity with one click by the drag-and-drop method, so that you can easily create the desired design.
