How do I change the size of my canvas in Canva?

Published in Canva Design 2 mins read

To change the size of your canvas in Canva, you can use the resize option within the editor.

Here's how:

  1. Open your design in Canva.
  2. Locate the "Resize" option: On the menu bar above the Canva editor, look for an icon that allows resizing (it might be represented by two intersecting arrows or the word "Resize").
  3. Choose a new size:
    • Select from suggested sizes: Canva provides common design dimensions. Choose one from the displayed suggestions if it suits your needs.
    • Enter custom dimensions: If you need a specific size, enter the desired width and height in the provided fields.
  4. Choose to copy and resize or just resize: Canva will usually give you the option to either resize the current design or create a copy of the design with the new size. Resizing the current design will alter the current project. Choosing the "copy and resize" option will open a new tab with the newly sized canvas and leave your original untouched.

Keep in mind that resizing might slightly alter the layout of your design, so you might need to make minor adjustments after resizing.
