How Do I Convert Illustrator to Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 8:11 pm

There are a number of reasons you might want to convert an Adobe Illustrator file to a Canva file. Perhaps you’re collaborating with someone who doesn’t have Illustrator, or you want to use Canva’s built-in tools to edit the design.

Whatever the reason, it’s easy to convert AI files to Canva format. Here’s how:

First, open your AI file in Adobe Illustrator. Then, go to File > Export > Export As.

In the Export As dialogue box, select the format you want to convert to. For our purposes, we’ll be choosing PNG. Give your file a name and click Save.

Now that you have a PNG of your AI file, head over to Canva. Create a new design and click on the Uploads tab in the left-hand sidebar. Select your newly exported PNG file and click Open.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to convert your Illustrator file to a Canva file, be aware that there may be some loss of quality in the process. Additionally, not all features of Illustrator may be supported in Canva, so some elements of your design may be lost or changed.

And that’s it! Your AI file is now imported into Canva and ready for editing. Have fun!
