How Do I Outline Text in Black on Canva?

Last updated on December 7, 2022 @ 4:59 am

There are a few ways that you can outline text in black on Canva. One way is to use the “Text” tool and click on the “Stroke” option.

From there, you can select “Outline” and then choose the color black. Another way is to use the “Text” tool and click on the “Fill” option. From there, you can select “Outline” and then choose the color black.

If you want to style your text using HTML, you can use the < p >, < b > and < u > tags where applicable. For example, if you want to make your text bold, you would use the < b > tag.

If you want to underline your text, you would use the < u > tag. And if you want to add a paragraph break, you would use the < p > tag.

PRO TIP: If you are trying to create text in a black outline on Canva, be aware that there is currently a known issue with this function. Some users have reported that the text appears correctly in the editor, but when the design is downloaded, the black outline is missing. Until this issue is resolved, we recommend using a different color for your text outline.
