Inserting Excel into Canva

Copy & Paste Excel Charts

To insert an Excel chart into Canva, use the copy/paste method. This is the easiest approach to transfer your data visuals from Excel to Canva. Note that the default Excel chart background is not transparent.

Saving Excel Charts as SVG

Excel charts can be saved in the SVG format. This allows for high-quality vector graphics to be imported into Canva, ensuring your charts are crisp and scalable.

Importing Excel Spreadsheets

It is possible to import entire Excel spreadsheets into Canva. However, the process may not preserve all formatting perfectly, requiring some adjustments post-import.

File Formats for Import

When importing from Excel to Canva, you can use PNG, JPG, or SVG file formats. PNG and JPG are ideal for images and backgrounds, while SVG is best for charts that need to maintain quality at various sizes.
