How To Setup Files In Canva

Here are some steps to help get your DTF Designs setup properly in Canva:

1. When choosing a "Custom size" for your design, set the unit to 'in' (inches) and enter the exact Width and Height you want your design printed.
2. Enlarge your artwork/design to the edge of the page
3. When your design is finished, click the "Share" button
4. Click the "Download" option
5. File type should be set to PNG
6. Make sure the size in pixels matches the size in inches. The Canva default 'Size x 1' is not the correct size. If in doubt, increase to the maximum size. This will ensure your file is high quality.
7. Check the 'Transparent Background' box
8. DO NOT check the 'Compress file' box
9. Click the "Download" button
