Canva pro is a powerful graphic design tool that makes editing images simple and efficient. One of its most useful features is the Background Remover tool, which allows you to eliminate the background from any image easily. This guide will walk you through removing a background in Canva.
Step 1: Open Canva and Upload Your Image
- Go to Canva and log into your account.
- Click on Create a design and select the preferred dimensions.
- Upload the image you want to edit by clicking Uploads > Upload files, then select your image.
- Drag the uploaded image onto the canvas.
Step 2: Use the Background Remover Tool
- Click on the image to select it.
- In the toolbar at the top, click on Edit Image.
- Under the Effects section, select Background Remover.
- Wait a few seconds while Canva automatically removes the background.
Step 3: Refine the Edges (If Needed)
- If the background removal isn’t perfect, use the Erase or Restore tool to fine-tune the image.
- The Erase tool allows you to manually remove parts that were not erased.
- The Restore tool helps bring back any parts of the image that may have been removed by mistake.
Step 4: Download Your Image
- Once satisfied with the background removal, click Share in the top right corner.
- Select Download and choose PNG format (for transparent background, check the “Transparent Background” option).
- Click Download and save your edited image.
Alternative: Remove Background Using Third-Party Tools
If you’re using Canva’s free version, the Background Remover tool is not available. Instead, you can use free online tools like remove.bg or Adobe Express to remove backgrounds before uploading the image to Canva.
