Flyer to PNG

Twice the canvas, every time

The server captures each page at a device pixel ratio of two, so the file you download is double the canvas in both directions. An Instagram post at 1080 by 1080 exports as 2160 by 2160. A story becomes 2160 by 3840, a Facebook post 2400 by 1260, a LinkedIn post 2400 by 1254, a Facebook cover 1640 by 624, a Twitter header 3000 by 1000 and an A4 page 2480 by 3508. There is no setting for this.

One page, the one you are looking at

Image exports carry a page index, and it is the page currently selected in the builder. A two page flyer therefore needs two exports, one page selected at a time. It is the single most common surprise here, and there is no batch or export all option to fall back on.

PNG for type, JPG for photographs

PNG is lossless, so flat colour panels, hard edged headlines and QR codes come out exactly as drawn. JPG is written at quality 95, which is high enough that a photograph is visually identical and the file is a fraction of the size. The practical rule: if the page is mostly type or flat colour, PNG. If it is mostly one large photograph, JPG.

Twice the size is not a mistake

Uploading a 2160 pixel square where the platform wanted 1080 is fine and often better, because the platform downsizes with a good filter and its own re-encode has more to work with. What you should not do is upscale a small export yourself, which is why the fixed doubling exists rather than a quality slider.

It saves before it renders

Any unsaved change is written first, so the image always matches your canvas. The flip side is that each save is a new version, and a version that has not been rendered in that format renders fresh. Exporting the same page from the same saved version again returns the existing file instantly with no further charge.

How it works, in three steps

1. Step 1

   Select the page you want

   Image exports take the active page. Click its thumbnail in the page rail first.

2. Step 2

   Export as PNG or JPG

   Both sit in the Export menu beside PDF, and both give you the one page.

3. Step 3

   Repeat for each page

   There is no batch export, so a front and a back are two selections and two exports.

The full walkthrough with screenshots is in the guide Create a flyer for Instagram and print.

Limits worth knowing

• PNG and JPG export the active page only. PDF is the only format that carries every page.
• Files are always twice the canvas dimensions. There is no size, scale or quality control.
• JPG is written at quality 95 and PNG is lossless. Neither is configurable.
• There is no transparent background option; pages are captured on white.
• The download link lasts ten minutes, after which you ask for the export again.
• The free plan has limited exports; unlimited exports start at the Starter plan.
