How to Change Canva Template Size on Computer and Phone

1. Standard sizes in Canva

In Canva, design sizes are limited as follows:

Minimum size: 40 x 40 pixels.

Maximum size: 8000 x 3125 pixels.

If you enter a size outside this range, the size fields will turn red, signaling that the size exceeds the allowed limit.

2. Consequences of Wrong Dimensions in Design

In the world of design, standard dimensions are not just a number, but a determining factor in the success of a project. Even a small mistake in dimensions can lead to serious consequences, from aesthetic loss to financial loss.

When you design the wrong dimensions, you will have to edit or completely redo it from scratch, wasting the time and effort of the entire design team. Going back to edit not only slows down the project but also creates a lot of pressure, especially when facing important deadlines.

Poorly designed images and misaligned layouts can seriously damage your reputation, and more than anything else, your customers. Customers expect perfection, and when they receive a product that doesn’t meet their expectations, it can negatively impact your business relationship and even lead to you losing potential customers.
