Export

Export renders the slide the same way the canvas draws it, at the output size, and hands you a file. The output size is shown before anything is rendered.

Formats

PNG

One slide, or every slide as its own file

JPG

The same, flattened onto the slide's background colour

PDF

Every slide through the print view, with text and shapes still vector

What a scale does

A scale is the render target, never the geometry. At 3x the document still says x: 120 and the slide is still 1080 by 1920; only the bitmap grows. Type, shapes, SVG and notation are laid out again at the output size, so they really are sharper. A photograph is never upsampled past its own pixels.

Two ceilings, for different reasons

• A technical one: 8192 pixels on the longest edge and 40 megapixels in total, because an oversized canvas returns a blank image rather than an error.
• A plan one: 1x on Free, up to 4x on Studio, with a typed custom scale on Studio. See Account and billing.
