Resize your Canva artwork for multiple print sizes

Want to use the same artwork for flyers, posters, banners, and bookmarks? Canva can do it, magically:

1 From the "Resize & Magic Switch" menu at the top, select "Custom Size":
Resize Button

2 Enter the new dimensions of your new print order. Be sure "in" (inches) is selected, then click "Continue".
See Notes below for tips*:
Input Custom Dimensions

3 Choosing "Copy & Resize" preserves your original file and creates a copy of it in the new dimensions:

4 Wait a few seconds for the magic to happen, then click to open your resized file:

You can then adjust the resized art as needed.

*Notes:

Downsizing works better than upsizing. Design the biggest size first.
If you have trouble upsizing, from a small bookmark to a poster for instance, you might need to upsize to an intermediate size first.
The largest size you can create in Canva is 83". If you wanted us to print something larger than 83", you should size your art to 50% of the finished dimensions. For a 96"x50" banner, you would create the art 48"x25".
