how about if you're trying to make an editable template but want to flatten the designs but still want text box, image frames to be edited? would it still be the same way?
In order to do that. Create the elements that you do not want editing first download as a flattened pdf, then upload that to Canva and add in the editable parts and give that template link to your audience.
Hello, I am trying to make a storybook from canva. It is completed and I am trying to upload to KDP but KDP is telling me I can't upload because off the layering and that I need to change the vectors by rasterizing it- but this will make the images blurry. Do you have any suggestions. I am downloading the file by PRD Print, I tried to download with all other options but it is not working.
The document should be flat as a png. Also Canva now has a flatten feature in the PDF Print option. Although this is rolling out to different people at different times.
You should check that with Canva. My understanding is you can sell templates you create, using their free resources but not the actual templates they provide.
Canva has a new license agreement called the One License but it still might not cover all fonts. I have added a list of 50 Commercial fonts that you can use on Canva www.canva.com/learn/50-free-commercial-fonts/
@@deedanner6431 I don't know why. I think it is because of the special license they need from Font creators. Most allow commercial use but not server use, which Canva is.
@@DreamCreativeBee I just finished my first medium content book and double checking the licenses on the fonts was a real pain. From now on once I check them I think I will just add the commercial use fonts to my brand kit.
I followed your instruction and it still came out pixelated and much lower quality than just exporting as a PDF from Canva. Still don't have the flattening problem solved. 😢
Try to export the PNG with the setting turned up to 3 times. This should give a high resolution of nearly 600 dpi. I can not guarantee that it will not pixelate as Canva is really designed for screen and not print although they are improving this every day.
Thanks!
You are welcome

How big is the file in megabytes. That might be the issue. Please let me know and then I can work out a solution for you.
You are amazing. Thank you for upload the video 🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure 😊
Hello! Very helpful!
May I ask if the document is “flat” if you just download as a png? Do I need to take it back in and then make a pdf?
The document should be flat as a png. Also Canva now has a flatten feature in the PDF Print option. Although this is rolling out to different people at different times.
@@DreamCreativeBee , thank you! I will keep an eye out for that option. It is a HUGE help.
what if im doing photos in canvas and selling them digital ? is that the same way to do it bedst regards Noa Denmark
If you are selling photos I wouldn’t use Canva. You need to sell them as PNG or Jpegs. Unless you are selling the raw file.
If we reupload as a png won't they be at a lower quality because Canva doesn't do 300 dpi
Yes, but good news Canva is rolling out the ability to flatten PDFs.
Good training video. So many things can be done with Canva. :)
Thank you. Yes so many things can be done, and it is only getting better.
@@DreamCreativeBee You are very welcome. Glad it's getting even better! lol Have a great week! :)
You too
@@DreamCreativeBee Thank you! :)
Thank you for this video. I have one question. ;) can you sell your product on TpT from canva even if you are using one of those free templates?
You should check that with Canva. My understanding is you can sell templates you create, using their free resources but not the actual templates they provide.
Can we use all the fonts on Canva commercially?
Canva has a new license agreement called the One License but it still might not cover all fonts. I have added a list of 50 Commercial fonts that you can use on Canva www.canva.com/learn/50-free-commercial-fonts/
@@DreamCreativeBee Ok. I saw that as well. I wonder why they don't clarify the font licenses.
@@deedanner6431 I don't know why. I think it is because of the special license they need from Font creators. Most allow commercial use but not server use, which Canva is.

@@DreamCreativeBee I just found your videos today and I've already watched quite a few. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
