Use this interactive demo to learn how to switch your Canva design between portrait and landscape orientation.

Quick summary

Changing page orientation in Canva is done through the Resize & Magic Switch tool, where you can set a custom size by swapping width and height values. This lets you instantly convert any design between portrait, landscape, or square formats without starting from scratch.


Steps

  1. From the top menu, select Resize & Magic Switch.
  2. In the Resize section, select Custom size.
  3. Switch the Width and Height values to change the orientation.
  4. Choose your preferred format: Square, Portrait, or Landscape.
  5. Once satisfied with your size, click Continue.
  6. Reconstruct the page layout to fit the new dimensions.

📌 Why this matters

Changing page orientation in Canva is a common need for designers working across multiple formats — from social media posts to presentations and print materials. Canva's Resize & Magic Switch tool makes it easy to switch between portrait, landscape, and square layouts without rebuilding your design from scratch. This flexibility saves time and ensures your content looks polished across every platform and use case. Whether you're repurposing a flyer as a banner or adapting a deck for mobile, mastering page orientation in Canva is a core skill for efficient design workflows.
