Can You Make an Infographic in Canva?
As a non-designer, I was always a little intimidated by the prospect of creating an infographic. They always looked so complicated and like they required some kind of special design skills.But then I discovered Canva, and everything changed. Canva is an online design platform that’s super simple and user-friendly, even for someone with no design experience (like me! ).
Now, I’m not saying that you can create a complex, multi-layered infographic in Canva. But if you want to create a basic infographic with some text, images, and simple graphics, Canva is the perfect tool.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating an infographic in Canva:
- Start with a template: Canva has a ton of great infographic templates to choose from. Simply select the template you want to use and then click “Use Template.”
- Add your text: Once you’ve selected a template, you can start adding your own text. Click on any text box to edit the text or add your own. You can also change the font, color, size, and alignment of the text.
- Add your images: To add images to your infographic, click on the “Uploads” tab in the left-hand sidebar and upload your image files.Once they’re uploaded, you can drag and drop them into place.
- Add graphics: To add graphic elements like shapes and lines, click on the “Elements” tab in the left-hand sidebar. Here you’ll find a library of pre-made graphic elements that you can drag and drop into place.
- Download or share: When you’re finished designing your infographic, click on the “Download” or “Share” button in the top right corner. From here you can download your infographic as a PDF or JPG file or share it directly to social media.
