Questions about switching
Can I bring my Canva designs?
Not as Canva files. Download a design as PDF Print or SVG, or as PowerPoint for a presentation, and import it in Calisto Templates. Each one becomes a template in its builder.
What about Canva’s stock elements?
The import notes a file made in Canva and flags it for review. Before you sell a template, make sure you hold the rights to every photo, illustration and element in it.
What happens to my fonts?
A typeface outside the free library is drawn in the nearest free family, and the import report names the swap.
