How Do You Make a Cover for a Figma File?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:47 pm

When you are working on a design project in Figma, you may want to share it with others or export it for use in another program. To do this, you will need to create a cover for your Figma file. You can use any image editing program to create a cover, but we recommend using Adobe Photoshop or Sketch.

To create a cover in Photoshop, open the program and create a new document that is 827×1169 pixels. Then, open your Figma file and export the first frame as an image.

Drag this image into your Photoshop document. Next, add any text or other graphics that you want to include on the cover. Finally, save the cover as a PNG file.

To create a cover in Sketch, open the program and create a new document that is 827×1169 pixels.

Drag this image into your Sketch document.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with Figma, we recommend that you do not attempt to create a cover for a Figma file. Doing so may result in damage to the file and/or frustration on your part.

Creating a cover for your Figma file is easy to do using either Adobe Photoshop or Sketch.

Simply open up either program and create new document that is 827×1169 pixels. Next, open your Figma file and export the first frame as an image which you will then drag into your newly created document in either program.

After adding any text or other desired graphics, save thecover as a PNG file and you’re done!
