Setting up your artwork with crop marks in Canva
Crop marks are the small lines on the corner of your artwork that indicate where
the paper will be trimmed. It’s important to include these
when sending your artwork to
us as the marks act as a guide to tell us where to trim your art to
reach your desired final size.
You can add crop marks at the same time as making a PDF of your print file to send to us.
Here’s how:
1. ClicktheSharebuttoninthepurplemenu bar above the editor. From the drop down menu that appears, select Download.
2. Change your file type to PDF Print, check the box for Crop marks and bleed, and change the colour profile to CMYK.
3. Click Download.
4. Open your PDF when it’s downloaded and check your bleed is there, and that you have pairs of crop marks on each corner of the page.

Why do I need to save my Canva design in CMYK?
Canva is an online web tool which means it uses RGB as the default colour profile rather than CMYK, which is best for print.
