Changing the DPI (dots per inch) in Canva isn't directly possible within the platform itself because designs are typically viewed digitally rather than in print. However, if you need a specific DPI for printing purposes, you can achieve this indirectly:
- Set your design dimensions to the size you need for printing, such as inches or centimetres.
- Click 'Share' to download your design.
- When you're ready to download your design, Canva offers download options where you can select the file type and quality.
- Downloading your design in 'JPG, PNG and PDF Standard' in 96 DPI resolution will produce blurry or pixelated designs.
- Choosing a PDF will typically give you good results for printing. The only file format that has 300 DPI in Canva.
- If you intend to display your graphics design in a monitor, then choose 'RGB'.
- If you intend to print your graphics design, you need to use CYMK to get the best results.
- Once satisfied, click 'Download'. Keep in mind that a DPI of 300 is commonly used for good quality.
