How Do I Add Crop Marks in Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 10:24 pm

Adding crop marks to your design is a great way to add a professional touch. Here’s how to do it in Canva:

PRO TIP: Crop marks are used to indicate where a document should be trimmed. They are usually placed around the perimeter of the document at about 1/8″ – 1/4″ from the edge.

Adding crop marks in Canva is easy, but there are a few things to keep in mind. First, make sure that your design is the correct size and aspect ratio for the document you’re printing. If it’s not, the crop marks will be incorrect and your document may not print correctly.

Second, when you add crop marks in Canva, they will be added to all pages of your design. So if you only want them on one page, make sure to delete them from the other pages before exporting your design.

Finally, crop marks are not typically printed on documents unless they’re being trimmed. So if you’re planning on sending your design to a printer, make sure to remove the crop marks before exporting it.

  1. Open your design in Canva.
  2. Click on the “Crop” button in the toolbar at the top of the screen.
  3. Click on the “Advanced options” link.
  4. Check the “Show crop marks” box.
  5. Click on the “Done” button.

That’s it! Your design will now have crop marks that you can use to cut it out precisely.

Adding crop marks to your design is a great way to add a professional touch. Canva makes it easy to add crop marks to your design with just a few clicks.
