A template has two parts to set up: creating it, and adjusting its settings. This article covers both.
Creating a template
Templates live inside folders. Select the folder you want the new template to go in, then click Create Template. The dialog has two tabs: Empty Template and Presets.
If Create Template is greyed out, you've reached the maximum number of templates for your plan. See Template limits.
Start from a blank canvas (Empty Template)
The Empty Template tab gives you a blank canvas at the size you choose:
- Name: what the template is called in your library and in any campaign with more than one template. You can rename it later (see Rename, duplicate, move or delete templates).
- Category (optional): a label you can use to organise templates in campaigns with more than one template.
- Size: pick one of the standard sizes from the empty presets, or type a custom Width and Height in pixels. The default is 1080 × 1080.
Click Create Template when you're ready.
Start from a preset (Presets)
The Presets tab lets you start from a ready-made template instead of a blank canvas. Pick one as your starting point and edit it from there.
Template settings
With a template open in the editor, open its Settings panel to change the options below. They belong to the template itself, so they carry through to every design made from it.
Size
Adjust Width and Height in pixels, then click Apply size. The canvas resizes only once you apply. Sizes up to 7016 × 9933 px are supported. If you need something larger, get in touch with support.
Format
The Format is the file type the template exports as: PNG, JPEG, GIF, PDF or SVG.
Category
An optional label. Templates that share a category are grouped together when they're shared in a campaign.
Caption
A default caption for this template, passed along when one of its designs is shared to a social network.
