How to resize your Design

Use resize when you need the same design in another format, such as turning a poster into a social post or creating several matching digital sizes from one design.

Resize creates a new version of your design in the size you choose. Your original design remains available, and you can adjust the resized version separately after it is created.

Note: Resize availability can depend on your Easil subscription and the type of design you are working on.

Resize a design using a preset size

  1. Open the design you want to resize.
  2. Open the Sizes tab in the editor sidebar.

  1. Choose the preset size you want to create.
  2. Confirm the resize.
  3. Review the new resized design and adjust text, images, graphics, or page layout as needed.

After resizing, check each page before downloading or sharing. A design resized into a very different shape may need manual layout adjustments so important content stays readable and within the safe area.

Resize with custom dimensions

Use a custom size when you already know the exact width and height you need.

  1. Open the Sizes tab.
  2. Select Copy and resize.
  3. Choose Custom.
  4. Select the unit you need, then enter the required width and height.

  1. Confirm the resize.
  2. Review the resized design and make any spacing or alignment adjustments.

Custom sizing is useful for platform-specific artwork, ad placements, signage, or supplied print dimensions. If you are preparing a print design, check whether your printer requires bleed or safe-area margins before exporting.

Tips for cleaner resized designs

  • Resize from the closest existing format where possible. A square design usually adapts more easily to another square size than to a wide banner.
  • Check headings, buttons, and grouped elements after resizing.
  • Review every page in multi-page designs.
  • Keep important text and logos away from the edge of the canvas.
  • Rename the resized design clearly so you can tell each format apart in your WorkSpace.
