Canva is an incredible online design software that allows you to create many things including stunning presentations.

But if you’re a PowerPoint user you might be wondering how to export your Canva slides as a PowerPoint presentation?

In this article, we’ll take you through the process step by step, including how to keep your animated elements from Canva.

Let’s dive right in.

Jump to a specific section:

Step 1: Download your Canva slides

Step 2: open the .pptx doc in powerpoint, step 3: copy or add animation.

If you haven’t created your presentation in Canva yet – check out these incredible Canva presentation slide templates to get started.

If you have, open up your Canva slides document, and once you’ve made all your updates and you’re happy with it you can now download it.

You can download as a PDF file, or publish it online, or if you want to export it as a PowerPoint presentation (.pptx) you can do that too. Here’s how:

Go to the ‘Share’ button at the top right and click ‘More’:

Scroll down to the ‘Save’ options and choose ‘Microsoft PowerPoint’:

download canva presentation from link

Choose the slides you want to download, and hit the download button:

download canva presentation from link

You will now have a PowerPoint presentation (.pptx) file in your downloads folder that you can open up.

The next step is to check if everything in your presentation was exported from the Canva slides to a PowerPoint presentation correctly.

In the past, elements such as the text fonts, graphs, videos, and some graphics didn’t export correctly but Canva has mostly fixed these issues so your export will likely be completely fine.

It’s worth checking though!

As an example, our .pptx export contained a couple of videos in one of the slides. One of the videos remained in that format:

Whilst the other one was converted into an image element:

Most of the elements will be converted properly but as you can some elements such as animations and videos might not convert correctly.

There is a workaround for this, which we’ll cover in the next step.

To convert Canva slides with animation into PowerPoint presentation slides here’s what you have to do:

First, go back to your Canva presentation, and download the pages with animation as GIFs. Simply, go to ‘Share’ then ‘Download’ and select the page or pages that you want to download:

download canva presentation from link

Then, select GIF as your file type, and hit the download button:

download canva presentation from link

The last step is to add a blank slide in your PowerPoint presentation, upload the downloaded GIF image into that new blank slide and adjust it to cover the PowerPoint page and that’s it!

You’ll now have an animated slide in your PowerPoint presentation.

Adding animations in PowerPoint

You can also simply download the full Canva presentation and convert it to a PowerPoint presentation and then add animations within PowerPoint instead.

Here’s a great video showing you how to add animations in PowerPoint:

HOW TO DOWNLOAD CANVA SLIDES AS POWERPOINT

Quick video tutorial.

Sometimes when a client asks a question, it’s a great opportunity for me to create a short video tutorial to help them and others. So recently when I was asked about downloading a Canva Presentation and converting it to PowerPoint, I created this quick tutorial. I hope you find this step by step guide for how to turn Canva slides into PPT helpful!

Canva can pretty much do it all!

Canva has come a long way since its inception and you can now create some pretty amazing things on their platform. From graphics to social media posts, slide presentations and videos, I have come to rely on it for so many things.

Canva Presentations

The Presentations option in Canva is a great way to create a slide presentation as you have access to so many different layouts, images, etc. It’s a quick and easy program to follow and the results can be stunning!

However, if you created animations (moving text) etc. in your presentation slides in Canva, those will not download, when you save as a PowerPoint. You may need to edit your slide deck for those options after you download. You can still download an individual slide with a video as an MP4 file and insert that into your slide deck afterwards.

How to download your Presentation

Now it’s time to download your beautiful creation. You will see the Share button in the top right corner. This is where you can copy a link to share your file or download it. When you click the Share button, you will see a variety of options.  The one that may save you time, is to download your slides as a PowerPoint slide deck in one download.

Click MORE…

Click on the Share button and scroll down until you see …More. When you click on More, you will scroll down until you see the PowerPoint icon and click on that. Now you can easily download your presentation as a PowerPoint file and save it to your computer.

Introduction

How to Download Presentation from Canva

Canva is a popular online graphic design platform that offers a wide range of customizable templates. One of the many features it offers is the ability to create stunning presentations. Canva provides a user-friendly interface that allows you to design visually appealing slideshows for various purposes, such as business presentations, school projects, or personal use.

Once you have successfully designed your presentation using Canva’s intuitive tools and creative elements, you may want to download it so that you can share or present it offline. In this article, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of downloading a presentation from Canva.

Whether you want to save your presentation in a specific format or share it with someone who doesn’t have access to Canva, downloading the file is a straightforward process. By following these simple steps, you can quickly and easily obtain a copy of your Canva presentation.

So, grab your Canva account login credentials and let’s get started!

Step 1: Sign in to your Canva account

Before you can download your Canva presentation, you need to sign in to your Canva account. If you don’t have an account, you can easily create one for free on the Canva website.

To sign in, simply open your preferred web browser and go to www.canva.com . On the homepage, you will see the “Sign up” and “Log in” options in the top right corner. If you already have a Canva account, click on “Log in”.

Next, enter your Canva account credentials, which include your email address and password. If you prefer a faster way to sign in, you can use your Google or Facebook account by clicking on the respective buttons. This will allow you to directly log in to Canva without having to manually enter your login information.

Once you have entered your credentials or logged in with Google/Facebook, click on the “Log in” button. Canva will verify your account details and redirect you to the Canva platform.

Now you are ready to download your Canva presentation. Proceed to the next step to learn how to choose the presentation you want to download.

Step 2: Choose the presentation you want to download

Once you are logged in to your Canva account, it’s time to select the presentation you want to download. Canva provides a simple and organized way to browse through your saved designs and locate the specific presentation you wish to download.

On the Canva dashboard, you will see various categories and options on the left-hand side of the screen. Look for the “Presentations” category and click on it. This will display all the presentations you have previously created using Canva.

If you have a large number of presentations, you can use the search bar at the top of the screen to quickly find the one you are looking for. Simply type in the title or a relevant keyword related to the presentation, and Canva will filter the results accordingly.

Scroll through the list of presentations until you find the one you want to download. You can also sort your presentations by date or name to make the search easier. Canva displays a thumbnail image and the title of each presentation, making it visually and textually identifiable.

Once you have located the desired presentation, click on it to open it in the Canva editor. This allows you to preview the content and ensure it is the correct presentation before proceeding to the next step.

Now that you have chosen the presentation you want to download, it’s time to move on to the next step, where you will learn how to access the download option in Canva.

Step 3: Click on the “Download” button

After selecting the presentation you want to download in Canva, the next step is to locate and click on the “Download” button. This button allows you to access the various download options available for your presentation.

In the Canva editor, at the top right corner of the screen, you will find the “Download” button represented by an arrow pointing downwards. Click on this button to open the download menu.

Once you click on the “Download” button, a dropdown menu will appear with a list of available download options. Canva provides a range of file formats for you to choose from, depending on your specific needs and preferences.

The download options may include popular formats such as PDF, PowerPoint (PPTX), image (JPEG, PNG), and more. Some formats may require a Canva Pro subscription, so make sure to check the availability of each option based on your account status.

Take a moment to review the available options and consider which format is most suitable for your purpose. If you plan to share the presentation digitally or display it on a screen, a PDF or image format may be more appropriate. On the other hand, if you intend to edit or present the slides offline, the PowerPoint format would be a better choice.

Choose the desired format by clicking on it in the dropdown menu. This will prepare your presentation for download in the selected format.

Now that you have selected the download format, it’s time to move on to the next step and complete the download process.

Step 4: Select the format you want to download the presentation in

After clicking on the “Download” button in Canva, a dropdown menu will appear with a list of available download options. It’s time to select the format in which you want to download your presentation.

Canva offers a variety of file formats to cater to different needs and preferences. Some of the common formats include PDF, PowerPoint (PPTX), image (JPEG, PNG), and more. The availability of these formats may depend on your Canva account type, with certain formats exclusive to Canva Pro subscribers.

Carefully review the list of available formats and consider the purpose for which you want to download the presentation. If you intend to share it digitally or include it in an online portfolio, a PDF or image format might be more appropriate. On the other hand, if you need to make further edits or present the slides offline, the PowerPoint format would be the better choice.

To select the desired format, simply click on the corresponding option in the dropdown menu. Canva will then prepare your presentation for download in the chosen format.

It’s worth noting that you may also have additional options to customize the settings of your chosen format. For example, if you select the PDF format, Canva may provide options to adjust the paper size, orientation, and quality. Take a moment to explore and adjust these settings, if necessary, to ensure the downloaded presentation meets your requirements.

Once you have selected the format and customized the settings (if applicable), you’re ready to proceed to the final step – downloading the presentation. Continue reading to learn how to complete the download process in Canva.

Step 5: Click on the “Download” button again

After selecting the desired format for your Canva presentation, the next step is to initiate the downloading process. To do this, click on the “Download” button again in the download options menu.

Once you have chosen the format you want to download the presentation in, Canva will display a confirmation message confirming your selection and providing a brief summary of the format specifications. This message may include details such as the file size, resolution, and any additional settings you may have customized.

To proceed with the download, simply click on the “Download” button within the confirmation message. Canva will then begin generating and packaging your presentation in the chosen format.

Depending on the size and complexity of your presentation, the download process may take a few seconds or a couple of minutes. During this time, it’s important to ensure that you have a stable internet connection, as any interruptions or fluctuations in the connection may affect the download process.

Once the download is complete, your presentation will be saved to your device’s specified download location. The exact location may vary based on your device settings. Canva typically saves the downloaded file in your computer’s “Downloads” folder by default.

Congratulations! You have successfully downloaded your Canva presentation in the format of your choice. From here, you can proceed to access and utilize the downloaded file according to your specific needs, whether that involves sharing it, presenting it offline, or making further edits to the content.

Now that you have completed all the necessary steps to download your Canva presentation, you can enjoy the convenience and flexibility of having your design readily available in the chosen format.

Step 6: Save the downloaded file to your device

After successfully downloading your Canva presentation, the final step is to save the downloaded file to your device. This ensures that you have easy access to the presentation whenever you need it, even without an internet connection.

When the download is complete, your web browser will prompt you with options on what to do with the downloaded file. You can choose to open the file directly, view it in the folder where it is saved, or locate it manually later. The options may vary depending on your browser and device settings.

To save the downloaded file, click on the “Save” or “Save File” option in the browser prompt. This will allow you to choose a specific location on your device where you want to store the presentation file.

In the dialog box that appears, navigate to the desired folder or directory where you want to save the presentation. You can use the default “Downloads” folder or select a different location based on your preferences and organizational method.

Once you have chosen the destination folder, click on the “Save” button. The presentation file will then be successfully saved to your device.

It’s recommended to keep your presentation in a location that is easily accessible and organized. Consider creating a dedicated folder specifically for Canva presentations or placing it in a relevant folder based on the topic or purpose of the presentation.

By saving the downloaded file to your device, you can effortlessly retrieve and open the presentation whenever you need it, whether it’s for sharing with others, presenting offline, or future reference and editing.

Congratulations! You have completed all the steps to download and save your Canva presentation. Now you can enjoy the benefits of having your design readily available on your device, ready to be utilized as needed.

Downloading a presentation from Canva is a simple and convenient process that allows you to save your design and access it offline. By following the step-by-step guide we have provided, you can easily download your Canva presentation in the format of your choice and save it to your device.

Remember, the first step is to sign in to your Canva account. From there, you can choose the presentation you want to download and click on the “Download” button. Select the format you prefer, and then click on the “Download” button again to initiate the download process. Finally, save the downloaded file to your device in a location that is easily accessible to you.

Downloading your Canva presentation gives you the freedom to share it with others, present it offline, or make further edits as needed.

Canva’s presentation tool makes it easy to put together a professional and visually engaging slide deck, regardless of your level of expertise. However, at some point, you may need to convert your Canva slides to PowerPoint to accommodate certain requirements, take advantage of more advanced features, or collaborate with others who prefer to work with PowerPoint.

Whatever the case, this article has got you covered. In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the step-by-step process of seamlessly transitioning your Canva presentations to PowerPoint, ensuring that your hard work and creativity are preserved.

After you’ve created the perfect professional presentation in Canva , here is how you can export it as a PowerPoint file. Click the Share button in the top-right corner and select More from the drop-down menu.

Click share and more in Canva

Scroll down the list and click on Microsoft PowerPoint .

You can type PowerPoint in the search bar at the top to quickly find it.

Click PowerPoint in Canva

By default, all the slides in your presentation will be selected to be exported. However, if you only want to export specific slides, click on the drop-down arrow under Select Pages . Disable the check marks beside the slides you don’t want to include, and click Done . Now click Download to export your selected slides.

Select Pages and Download in Canva

In the file explorer window that pops up, choose a location for your file, give it a suitable name, and click Save . Your Canva slide deck will now be downloaded to your computer as a PowerPoint (PPT) file.

This method of exporting your Canva presentation into a PPT file has a few limitations. The fonts you used may change if you don’t already have them on your computer.

In addition, if you’ve applied standard animations or used Canva’s animation tool to create custom animations for certain elements, these elements will be removed in the PPT document. In the next few sections, we’ll walk through how to work around these limitations.

How to Convert Canva Slides to PowerPoint (Without Changing Fonts)

Depending on the fonts you use, your Canva slide deck won’t look the same in PowerPoint if you don’t have those exact fonts saved on your computer. PowerPoint will automatically replace those custom fonts with default fonts.

If you want to still stick with the custom fonts, one way to go about it is to explore the font library in PowerPoint to see if you would find similar-looking fonts.

Another way to go about this is to first find out the name of the font in Canva or use any of the five best sites for identifying fonts online . From here, you can download the fonts to your computer from any of the best free font websites . The process of adding your new fonts to PowerPoint is similar to that of adding new fonts to Microsoft Word .

How to Convert Canva Slides to PowerPoint (With Animations)

If you don’t want to lose all the cool animation you’ve added to your Canva presentation, you’ll have to export them as a GIF. Here’s how.

Click the Share button and select Download from the drop-down menu.

Click share and download in Canva

Ensure GIF is selected under File type. With this method, you’ll have to select one page at a time (under Select pages) to export as a GIF. When you’re done, click Download .

Select GIF, pages, and Download in Canva

In the file explorer window that appears, choose a file location, give it a suitable name, and click Save . Your Canva slide will now be downloaded to your computer as a GIF file.

You have to repeat the same process for each page in your Canva slide deck. If your slides aren’t many, this shouldn't be much of a problem. However, if you’re working with a bunch of slides, this can be a bit tedious.

If you want to maintain the animated elements without the animations, you can go through a similar process but this time around, save your entire slide deck as a PNG file.

Select PNG, all pages, and Download in Canva

This will export each slide as a PNG file and place it in a zipped folder. From here you can extract the files, then drag and drop them into PowerPoint. Compared to exporting each slide as a GIF, this method will save you lots of time.

While the method of exporting your Canva slide deck into a .PPTX file removes animated elements, this method doesn’t let you modify slide elements in PowerPoint since they’re in GIF or PNG format. Keep these limitations in mind as you decide which method you want to use.

Converting Canva Slides to PowerPoint Is Easy

By following the steps outlined in this article, you can seamlessly transition your Canva presentations to PowerPoint, and get the best of both worlds! Whether you're working in Canva or PowerPoint, you can also choose to convert your presentations into videos.

Common issues when converting Canva to PowerPoint

There are some common issues that you may encounter when exporting Canva Presentations to PowerPoint.

1. Formatting issues

One of the most common issues when you save Canva to PPI is that the formatting of the slides may change slightly during the conversion process.

This can include changes to the font size, spacing, and alignment.

You might have to make some manual adjustments to ensure the PowerPoint layout looks exactly like it did in Canva.

This can occur when the fonts or images used in the Canva design are unavailable on the computer to open the PowerPoint presentation.

2. Missing fonts

If the fonts you used for your Canva presentation are not in PowerPoint, your presentation may look very off and strange.

So, you need to ensure you use the same fonts in both tools.

If you don’t have the fonts in PowerPoint, you used in Canva, first download the font from Google and upload it to Windows.

Now, remember, Canva has a huge font library with 3000 fonts. It could be possible that to use these fonts in PowerPoint, you might have to buy them at a premium price online.

Unfortunately, if you can’t even buy them online, you won’t be able to use these fonts in your PowerPoint presentation. You might have to stick to using your presentation in Canva.

One workaround could be to use your Canva presentation in Google Slides instead.

3. Loss of image quality

Sometimes, Images that look crisp in Canva may lose their quality when exported to PowerPoint.

To avoid this, make sure to use high-quality images in your Canva design.

Also, ensure that the images are correctly sized and formatted for use in PowerPoint.

4. Loss of effects and animation

Both tools offer animations, but the effects are not always the same. Canva has some very nice animated presentations  which are not there in PowerPoint, for example. So, these may not carry over smoothly during the conversion.

Besides, you could use some GIFs in Canva, which may get flattered during the conversion.

You may plan on doing a presentation for others through PowerPoint, but want to design it nicely in Canva. Then, I would recommend to only creating the design in Canva, but not adding the animations.

Add them in Canva after you download the PPT from Canva.

5. Broken links

If you have any hyperlinks embedded in the Canva design, it may not always carry over into the PowerPoint format.

You might have to reinsert them manually.

Quick tips for converting Canva to PowerPoint

When converting Canva presentations to PowerPoint, there are some best practices you should follow so that your files remain intact and nothing falls apart.

1. Check fonts and images

As mentioned above, ensure all fonts and images used in your Canva design are available on your computer.

If not, download and install them before importing the design to PowerPoint.

2. Edit and resize the presentation

After importing the Canva design to PowerPoint, review the slides and make any necessary edits or resizing to ensure they fit the screen properly.

If the size does not adapt by default, open PowerPoint first and create a document to match the format of Canva exactly.

Then, import the Canva slides into PPT.

3. Keep your presentations simple

While Canva provides a wide range of design elements and templates , it’s important to keep your design simple when converting to PowerPoint.

Simple Canva presentations are easier to save in a PowerPoint format with minimal loss in formatting.

It might be safest to add slide animations and transitions in PowerPoint, for example.

Canva also lets you create talking presentations .

Create some sample presentations first and download them as PowerPoint to check how the formatting works.

4. Test your presentation

Before you present your PowerPoint presentation, test it on different devices and platforms to ensure that it looks the way you want it to.

If possible, try to use fonts that are common to both Canva and PowerPoint, in your presentation. If you have used special fonts from Canva, you may need to install them on your computer and embed them into your PowerPoint file, provided you have the appropriate licensing rights.

Download your Canva design as a PPT file, then open it in PowerPoint to ensure the fonts have not changed.

Here are some detailed tips on how to save Canva as PPT without changing fonts:

1. Use common fonts

Stick to fonts that are commonly available in both Canva and PowerPoint. Fonts like Arial, Times New Roman, Calibri, and Verdana are usually safe bets.

If you have very aesthetic fonts , especially any premium Canva fonts, those may not display well when you download your Canva design into PowerPoint.

2. Check font licensing

Even before you begin your design in Canva, it is a good idea to verify that the fonts you plan to use are licensed for use in other applications. Some Canva fonts may not be licensed for use outside of Canva and, therefore, could automatically change when you open the design in PowerPoint.

3. Create your design

Design your presentation in Canva , keeping in mind the font considerations.

4. Download as PowerPoint

Once your design is complete, click on the ‘Share’ button in the top right corner of Canva. From the file type options, select ‘Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx)’.

5. Open and review in PowerPoint

Open your downloaded file in PowerPoint. Check to see if the fonts have remained consistent. If any fonts have changed, it could be because they are not available in PowerPoint or the specific version of PowerPoint you are using does not support those fonts.

6. Embed fonts (if necessary)

If you are using fonts in Canva that are not available in PowerPoint, you may need to download and install those fonts on your computer (if you have the right to do so). Then, you can embed them into your PowerPoint presentation.

To embed fonts in PowerPoint:

  • Click on ‘File’.
  • Select ‘Options’.
  • In the PowerPoint Options dialog box, select ‘Save’.
  • Under Preserve fidelity when sharing this presentation, check the ‘Embed fonts in the file’ option.
  • Choose ‘Embed all characters’ (best for editing by others) or ‘Embed only the characters used in the presentation’ (reduces file size).

Please note that font embedding will increase the file size of your presentation. Additionally, embedding fonts is subject to the font’s licensing permissions. Not all fonts are licensed to be embedded in files.

If you don’t have the rights to a particular font or if it is not available for PowerPoint, consider using a similar PowerPoint-compatible font to maintain the visual aesthetics of your presentation.

How to download Canva presentation as PPT with animation

1. Download your Canva presentation as a PPT file. 2. Download only the Canva slides with animations as GIFs individually. 3. Replace the slides with missing animations with the new slides containing the GIFs.

You can’t download a Canva animation slide as a PPT file, unfortunately.

But by the method I described above, you can easily download the slides with animation as GIFs. Remember to download them one by one!

Here is a full video.

How to Download a Picture or Design from Canva

Enjoy the fruits of your labor and share your Canva designs anywhere after downloading them with these simple instructions.

Sakshi Garg

You’ve finally created the perfect design in Canva after much toil. But you can’t seem to find the download button. Was all that hard work in vain? Of course not. If you’re new to Canva, the download button might not be visible at first glance after moving to its newest resting place. But, rest assured, it’s still there. And downloading your design is the easiest task ever, as it should be after all the labor you’ve already put in.

You can download a design whether you’re a free or paid user, but access to features will vary.

Download File Types Supported

There are a variety of formats in which you can download your design.

  • JPG: Small file size, best used for photographs. Canva Paid (Pro and Enterprise) users can adjust quality and scale.
  • PNG: High-quality image, best used for graphics. Canva paid users can also use features like transparent backgrounds and file compression while downloading.
  • SVG: Sharp Vector Graphics that maintain image quality at any size, best for web graphics. Also supports transparency. Not available for Canva Free users.
  • PDF Standard: Small file size. You can use it for illustrations, text, and graphics with a resolution of 96 dpi.
  • PDF Print: High-quality document. For printing with a resolution of 300 dpi. Supports bleed and crop mark options.
  • PPTX (Microsoft Powerpoint): For downloading Canva Presentations.
  • GIF: Short clips with no sounds or designs with animated elements
  • MP4: High-quality video with sound or music

Downloading a Design from Canva on the Desktop

If you’re using Canva from the web app on your desktop, downloading your design is a piece of cake.

Go to the editor menu bar at the top and click the ‘Share’ button at its right end.

download canva presentation from link

A menu will appear. Scroll past the sharing options and click the ‘Download’ option.

download canva presentation from link

Depending on your account type, your options will vary.

If you’re a Canva Free user, premium features will be unavailable to you. You will also have to pay for any pro elements before downloading the design. You can download a preview design with a Canva watermark (criss-cross lines) before paying for the design, though.

Regardless of your account type, the steps are the same.

First, choose the file type. Click the drop-down menu under the ‘File type’ option. Canva will automatically suggest the format best for your design.

download canva presentation from link

Options for available formats would appear. Click the one you want to choose.

download canva presentation from link

Premium users can also tweak other settings like adjusting the size or quality slider, choosing a transparent background, or selecting to compress the file, where applicable.

download canva presentation from link

Then, if your design has multiple pages, scroll down and select the pages you want to download from the drop-down menu. If you haven’t previously saved any download settings, by default, all pages will be selected. Click the pages you don’t want to download to unselect them and click ‘Done’.

download canva presentation from link

If you want to save your preferences for the future, check the option for ‘Save download settings’ after scrolling down. This step is completely optional.

download canva presentation from link

Finally, click the ‘Download’ button.

download canva presentation from link

Click ‘Pay and Download’ if your design has pro elements and you don’t have a subscription. You’ll then be asked for a preferred payment method like credit or debit card, UPI, etc., that may differ for your region. You can also buy Canva credits and pay with them. Often, there are also discounts on Canva credits. If you pay for an element, the license is for one-time use only. If you’re okay with downloading a watermarked design, click the ‘Download a free watermarked draft’ option instead.

download canva presentation from link

The design will be saved to the assigned downloads folder on your computer.

Downloading a Design from Canva on Mobile

You can use Canva on the mobile to design while on the go. If you want to use it on your mobile phone, you can use it either in the Canva app which you can download from the App or Play stores or on the web on any browser.

No matter where you choose to use Canva, you can easily download and save the design on your mobile. The way to download is also the same for both, with only a slight difference.

Tap the ‘Export’ icon from the Editor menu bar.

download canva presentation from link

Then, tap ‘Download’ from the menu that appears.

download canva presentation from link

Select the file type from the drop-down menu.

download canva presentation from link

If the design has multiple pages, select the pages you want to download.

download canva presentation from link

Finally, tap the ‘Download’ button. If the design has pro elements and you don’t have a pro account, tap ‘Pay and Download’ on Canva Web for mobile. Payment options will then appear which will involve options like credit or debit card, UPI, etc. that may differ according to your region. Choose how to pay for it, or you can also buy Canva credits similar to Canva web for desktop.

download canva presentation from link

On the mobile app, the only way to pay for any pro elements is through Canva credits. Now, while trying to download a design with a pro element through both the mobile app and the web, we found that purchasing through the mobile app was proving to be costlier. The difference was more than a dollar. Curious! So, if you want to download a design with a pro element, better use the web app in the browser.

download canva presentation from link

The design will be saved in your phone’s gallery or downloads folder.

Now that you know how to download your designs from Canva, go on and design as many graphics as you want.

How to Save a Canva Design With Links

Learn how to save your Canva designs with links with this step-by-step guide! (Yes, we have screenshots.)

download canva presentation from link

Canva is awesome!

It’s the one graphic design app for all of your needs, from logos and business cards to posters and handouts, especially if you can’t hire a professional designer or run a design contest.

You can even use it to design documents, such as freebies to give to potential customers, or an e-book to sell to your email list. And like any decent document editor, Canva lets you insert links into your designs.

But how do you save a Canva design with links?

Actually, it’s quite simple. To save a Canva design with links, all you have to do is download it as a PDF file. When you share the file with others and they open it, they can click on the links you created in Canva.

I’ll show you exactly how to do this in the rest of this post, step-by-step and with screenshots.

Insert Links in Your Canva Design

Generally, there are two ways to insert links in your Canva design. One is to link a design element, and the other is to link one or multiple words in a text box.

To link a design element , such as a text box, a shape, or a photo, select the element, then click on the link button in the upper right corner of the screen.

download canva presentation from link

To link one or multiple words in a text box , select them and click on the link button in the upper right corner of the screen.

download canva presentation from link

No matter which of the two options you choose, the next step will always be the same. A text box will pop up—paste the link in it, then hit the “Enter” key on your keyboard.

download canva presentation from link

Export a Canva Design With Links

Now that you’ve added links to your Canva design, follow the steps below to export it with them.

Step 1: Go to Canva.com , sign in to your account, and open the design you want to save. Then click on the “Share” button in the upper right corner of the screen.

Step 2: The “Share this design” dialog window will pop up. Click on the gray “Download” button.

Great tutorial! I want to export the design as an image, so that I can share it in groups like WhatsApp. Is there a way to do that?

I am also looking for the same 🙁 . How to download as an image by having the link active.

Hey there, Anant, Sindhuja,

I’m afraid you guys can’t do that—images as a file format do not support links. You’d have to download the design as a PDF and embed it if you want the links to be active (or apply some HTML/CSS hacks on the frontend as you work your design into your website).
