创建一个免费帐户(Create a Free Account)
Canva是一个有用的图像创建工具，有免费版本(with a free version)。还有一个专业版，就像大多数免费工具一样。
首先(Start)创建您的免费帐户。您可以使用Google、Facebook或电子邮件注册。注册后，系统会询问您是否为以下对象创建帐户：
系统会要求您选择一个选项，以帮助Canva了解向您推荐哪些模板和设计类型。但是，因为您要注册一个免费帐户，所以您选择哪个选项并不重要。
默认情况下，Canva会将您放入个人帐户。您可以随时升级。虽然这不是必需的，因为免费版本有很多选项和功能，使您能够创建几乎任何您想要的东西并将其发布到任何地方。
选择您的设计类型(Choose Your Design Type)
从图像类型的各种选项中进行选择，Canva会显示该类型的预设尺寸。您还可以通过单击自定义尺寸(custom size)从英寸、像素或毫米中进行选择来使用自定义尺寸。
单击创建设计(create a design)并搜索或滚动选项以找到您要使用的选项。
另一种入门方法是在搜索栏中输入您选择的设计类型或滚动浏览仪表板上的选项。
创建设计后，您将能够在所有设计(All your designs)下访问它。
选择一个模板(Choose a Template)
一旦你选择了你的设计类型，Canva就会带你进入它的编辑器。我们将在本教程中使用 Facebook 封面(use a Facebook Cover)。如果您想快速入门，可以使用Canva提供的众多模板之一。
模板也是完全可定制的。因此，您可以更改颜色、图像、字体等。
单击模板以使其显示在工作区中。或者将其拖放到编辑器中。您可以随时通过单击侧面板中的另一个缩略图来替换它。请注意，您对模板所做的任何更改都将被新模板替换。
选择模板后，您将能够格式化和自定义照片、文本、颜色、透明度和背景等元素。
如果要更改模板中的元素，请单击它并使用工具栏。您会发现它位于编辑器的顶部。
使用 Canva 编辑器(Using The Canva Editor)
在编辑器中，您可以设计图像或自定义所选模板。如果要更改名称，请在菜单栏中执行此操作。
设计会自动保存，但您也可以使用手动保存选项。
在编辑器左侧的侧面板中，您会找到图像、模板、照片、图标、插图、网格和框架。
使用文本选项卡添加标题、子标题或正文。您还可以添加文本组合，这些组合是不同字体以视觉上吸引人的方式组合在一起。
上传(Uploads)选项卡将使您能够添加自己的图像和照片。使用文件夹选项卡来组织您的图像和设计。
当您单击更多(more)时，您将看到 Canva 应用程序。
从头开始设计(Design From Scratch)
如果您愿意，您可以从头开始创建设计，而不是使用模板。要开始使用，请选择背景图像或颜色。
(Add)从编辑器左侧的菜单栏中将图像和文本添加到背景中，以完成您的设计。
一旦您的设计准备就绪，请邀请其他人查看或编辑。通过输入电子邮件地址发送电子邮件邀请或复制链接以共享。

Create a Free Account
Canva is a useful image creation tool with a free version. There is also a pro version, as is the case with most free tools.
Start by creating your free account. You can sign up with Google, Facebook, or email. After you sign up, you will be asked if you are creating an account for:
- Teacher
- Student
- Personal
- Small business
- Large company
- Non-profit or charity
You are asked to choose an option to help Canva know which templates and design types to recommend to you. However, because you are signing up for a free account, it doesn’t matter which option you choose.
By default, Canva will put you into a personal account. You can upgrade at any time. Although it won’t be necessary because the free version has so many options and features to enable you to create almost anything you want and publish it anywhere.
Choose Your Design Type
Choose from the various options of image types and Canva will show you the pre-set dimensions for that type. You can also use custom dimensions by clicking on custom size to select from inches, pixels, or millimeters.
Either click on create a design and search or scroll through the options to find the one you want to use.
Another way to get started is to type your chosen design type into the search bar or scroll through the options on the dashboard.
After you create a design, you will be able to access it under All your designs.
Choose a Template
Once you have chosen your design type, Canva takes you into its editor. We will use a Facebook Cover for this tutorial. If you want to get started quickly, you can use one of the many templates provided by Canva.
The templates are fully customizable too. So, you can change the color, images, fonts, and more.
Either click on the template to make it appear in the work area. Or drag and drop it into the editor. You can replace it at any time by clicking on another thumbnail from the side panel. Note that any changes you make to a template will be replaced by the new one.
After selecting your template, you will be able to format and customize the elements such as photos, text, color, transparency, and background.
If you want to change an element in the template, click on it and use the toolbar. You will find it located at the top of the editor.
Using The Canva Editor
Inside the editor, you can design an image or customize a chosen template. If you want to change the name, do this in the menu bar.
Designs are automatically saved, but you can also use the manual save option.
Inside the side panel on the left-hand side of the editor, you will find images, templates, photos, icons, illustrations, grids and frames.
Use the text tab to add a heading, a sub-heading or a body of text. You can also add a text combination which are different fonts put together in a visually appealing way.
The Uploads tab will enable you to add your own images and photos. Use the folders tab to organize your images and designs.
When you click on more, you will see the Canva apps.
Design From Scratch
If you prefer, you can create your design from scratch rather than using a template. To get started, choose a background image or color.
Add images and text to your background from the menu bar on the left side of your editor to complete your design.
Once your design is ready, invite others to view or edit. Send an email invitation by entering an email address or copy the link to share.
Save your image to your computer by clicking Download in the top right-hand corner. You will see several formats to choose from in the dropdown menu.
The possibilities are endless when using Canva to create custom images. For more tips and tricks on how to get the most out of Canva, check out their tutorials.
