About Canva
Canva lets people without design training create posters, invitations, presentations, social media posts and resumes using ready-made templates that you can edit.
How to get started
- Pick a template that matches the size you need, such as a social post or an A4 flyer.
- Change the text, colours and photos, and keep the design simple with no more than two fonts.
- Download the final design as an image or PDF.
Free and paid
There is a free plan, and some templates and elements are reserved for paid plans. Check what is included before you build a design around a locked element. If you use photos or fonts from elsewhere, make sure you have the right to use them.
Our take
Canva makes decent-looking designs quick for people with no design training. The key to good results is restraint: pick a template, use two fonts at most and leave white space. Check the licence before using designs commercially, and be aware that some elements are locked to paid plans, so avoid building a design around one.
An everyday example
A small tailor shop owner makes a simple price poster from a template, uses two fonts, exports it as a PDF and prints it at a local shop, rather than paying for a custom design.
