Quick summary
Canva does not natively open Adobe Illustrator AI files, but you can upload an AI file as an image and edit it using Canva's built-in design tools. This workaround lets you resize, crop, and modify the imported graphic without needing Illustrator.
Steps
- Log in to Canva and click the Upload button on the homepage.
- Click Upload files, select your saved AI image file, and wait for it to finish uploading.
- Choose Use in a new design or Edit image to open the file in the Canva editor.
- Resize, crop, or edit the imported image just like any other Canva element.
- Click Save once you have finished making your edits.
