One Canva feature that people often forget is its ability to make beautiful presentations. With tons of pre-made templates, Canva makes it easy to spice up even the most boring of topics. But, what do you do if you want to use Canva within Google Slides? How do you import them?

To import Canva presentations into Google Slides, design your slides in Canva. Then, either connect your Canva account to Google Drive, or download your presentation as a PowerPoint file. Import it into Google Slides. You can also download your Canva presentation as images to import into your Google Slides presentation.

There are a number of ways to import your Canva presentations into Google Slides. The method you choose will depend on your preferences and what you need to do.

Let’s dive in.

Option 1: Connect Your Google Drive Account to Canva

Canva can connect to Google Drive. This makes it quick and easy to share your presentation with your Google Drive account, which will then open it in Google Slides. There you go!

That said, you may not be comfortable connecting your Canva account to your Google Drive account. If that’s the case, skip to option 2.

If you are comfortable connecting your Canva and Google Drive accounts, here’s what you need to do.

1. Create your presentation in Canva.

Even though your slides will be editable once they’re imported into Google Slides, I still suggest designing them fully in Canva. Especially if you have Canva Pro, this will give you access to all of Canva’s amazing templates, images, design elements to make your presentation awesome.

2. Once you’re done, click the “Share” button and the “More” button

After you’ve finished designing your presentation in Canva, click on the “Share” button in the top right corner. Scroll down until you see the “More” button. Click on it.

3. Choose the Google Drive option

There are a LOT of options to share, save, and download your presentation. Find the Google Drive option within the Save section.

4. Connect your Canva and Google Drive accounts

If your Canva and Google Drive accounts aren’t connected already, you’ll need to go through a series of steps and permissions to connect them. Again, if you’re not comfortable with this, go to option 2.

5. Choose where you want to save your presentation and save it as a PPTX document

Once your Canva and Google Drive accounts are connected, you need to choose where in your Google Drive you want to save your presentation. Choose the folder that works for you.

Next, choose your file type. In order for the conversion to Google Slides to work properly, you’ll want to save your presentation as a Microsoft PowerPoint document (PPTX).

6. Use your Canva presentation in Google Slides!

When you share your PPTX file to your Google Drive account, it should open in Google Slides.

The great thing about this option is that you can still edit your presentation! You can edit the text, move things around, and make the changes you need.

But, if you don’t want to connect your Canva and Google Drive accounts, the good news is that option 2 lets you edit your presentations as well. And, it’s only a few more steps than option 1.

Option 2: Import a PowerPoint Presentation into Google Slides

With this method, we’ll be downloading your Canva presentation as a PowerPoint presentation and then importing it into a Google Slides presentation. Let’s walk through it step-by-step.

3. Download your presentation as a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation file

There are a LOT of options to share, save, and download your presentation. Scroll down to the “Save” section and click on “Microsoft PowerPoint” and then click on the “Download” button.

4. Open a new Google Slides presentation

Navigate to Google Slides and open a brand new presentation.

5. Choose the “Import Slides” option in Google Slides

Within Google Slides, click on “File” and then choose “Import Slides.”

6. Drag and drop your Canva presentation into Google Slides

A box will appear that will allow you to either drag and drop your files into Google Slides, or find the file on your computer. Find your Canva presentation your just downloaded as a Microsoft PowerPoint file and drag and drop it into this box in Google Slides.

7. Choose the slides you want to import

Google Slides will ask you to choose the slides you want to import. Click on the “All” button, or individually click on all of your slides to import all of them into Google Slides.

8. Enjoy your presentation!

Google will import your slides after your first blank slide, so simply delete that first blank slide. Then, you’re done! You can edit, rearrange, and use your slides seamlessly within Google Slides!

Yay! Like option 1, you can edit your presentation in Google Slides. Edit the text, move things around, adjust your presentation as needed.

The first two options we’ve talked about are the quickest ways to import Canva presentations into Google Slides while maintaining your ability to edit them. That said, there are other options you may be interested in, depending on your needs. Let’s quickly review them.

Option 3: import fully designed canva images into google slides.

With this method, you’re going to design your slides in Canva and then move them over to Google Slides in their fully finished forms. These will be static images, so you WON’T be able to edit them down the road.

• Open a Canva Presentation document. You want it to be “presentation” because the sizing will be similar to what you’ll need for Google Slides, which means you won’t have to mess with it too much when you’re done.
• Design everything as you need it to be when it’s fully finished. All photos, texts, backgrounds; make sure all of it is there and finalized.
• Download your Canva slides as png images. 
• Set up your Google Slides presentation with the number of blank slides that you need. 
• Drag and drop each png image onto a blank slide and position it so that it covers the entire slide. 
• Make sure your slides are in the right order and then you’re done!

If you have zero need to edit your presentation in the future, this could be an appealing option for you. Our final options involves static images as well.

Option 4: Import Partially Designed Canva Images into Google Slides

If you don’t want to design your presentation fully in Canva, this could be a good option for you. Maybe you just want to create a unique background image, or import a few unique design elements. You aren’t worried about needing to edit them down the road and want to work on the majority of your presentation in Google Slides.

Here’s what you can do. Again, these will be static images that will NOT be editable in Google Slides.

• Open a Canva Presentation document.
• Design any static images and elements that you’re ok with finalizing and not being able to change later.
• Download your Canva slides as png images.
• Set up your Google Slides presentation with the number of blank slides that you need.
• Drag and drop each png image onto a blank slide and position it so that it covers the entire slide.
• Add any text and elements that you still need in Google Slides.

If you have some static backgrounds, images, or elements you want to incorporate into your Google Slides presentation, this can be a great option.

Use Canva to Present Your Slideshow

Alright, so this is not an option for importing your Canva presentation into Google Slides, but it’s worth talking about.

It’s easy to forget that Canva can be a one stop shop for presentations. If you don’t actually need to use Google Slides, Canva’s own presentation mode is pretty good!

You can also share your presentation and collaborate with others within Canva itself.

In the toolbar, click on the share button. From there, you can type in the email addresses of your collaborators and choose whether you want them to simply view, or full on edit the presentation.

Important note: if you use any Pro elements within your presentation, those on your team with a Canva Pro subscription should be the ones to export or download your project if needed.

If you have the Pro version, you can also share the presentation for use as a template for future projects.

These capabilities are only available within Canva. Once you import your Canva presentation into Google Slides, you’re leaving the Canva ecosystem.

The biggest hurdle with this option is getting all of your team members on board with using Canva. As Canva users, we all know that once people start using Canva, they fall in love with it.

It can be hard to adjust to new platforms though. Even though Canva is easy to learn and use, it’s still an adjustment.

If you can woo your team onto the Canva train though, my best suggestion is to simply make your presentations in Canva and keep them there. As a presentation platform, Canva has a lot to offer.

How to import canva designs into google slides (step by step).

Once you’ve completed a presentation, it’s easy to learn how to import Canva to Google Slides. This enables you to showcase your work on a widely used platform.

If you need to complete a presentation for school or work, this guide is here to help. In the first two sections, I’ll explain how you can import your finished presentation to Google Slides by connecting your Canva account to Google Drive or without connecting these two accounts. 

Table of Contents

How To Import A Canva Presentation To Google Slides

Step 1: click the “share” button, then click the “more” button.

Once you’re ready to import your design to Google Slides, click the Share button at the top right corner. A list of options will appear. Click on the very last option, labeled More . 

Note: this part of the guide assumes that your presentation is made and ready to go. If you aren’t sure how to make a presentation, see my guide to creating slideshows in Canva first.

Step 2: Click On Google Drive Under The Save Section

After clicking More, you will be presented with additional options. Scroll down to the Save section, then click the Google Drive button . 

If you haven’t connected your Google Drive account with your Canva Account yet, you’ll be prompted to do so. Click Connect Google Drive , then fill in your email and password. When asked if Canva should access your account, click Allow . 

Step 3: Select A Folder On Google Drive To Save The File 

You will now see all the folders in your Google Drive account. Select the folder to which you want to add your design, then click Choose . If you don’t have any folders in your Google Drive account, just click Choose to add the presentation to your Google Drive account. 

Step 4: Select PPTX Under File Type And Click Save 

There is one more step before importing your design. In the last options menu that pops up, choose PPTX under File Type . PPTX stands for PowerPoint Presentation. Ensure all your pages are selected (or select the pages you want to export), then click Save . 

Step 5: Open Up Your Design In Google Slides 

Now that you’ve saved your design to your Google Drive account through Canva, you can find it in Google Slides. Double-click the file inside your Google Drive to open it in Google Slides. 

One of the coolest parts about importing your Canva design to Google Slides is that you can move elements around as much as you’d like. You can send this PPTX to someone without Canva and have them edit it however they like.

How To Export A Canva Presentation As A PowerPoint (To Open In Google Slides)

To save your file as a PPTX, click the Share button in the top right corner, then click More at the bottom of the list. PPTX is not available under the Download section. 

Step 2: Choose The Microsoft PowerPoint Option

With the More options menu open, scroll down about halfway to find the Save section. Click on the Microsoft PowerPoint button . 

Step 3: Choose Your Pages And Click Download 

Before you download your PPTX, make sure that All Pages is selected under Select Pages . If you only want to download certain pages, open the drop-down menu and check the pages you want to download. When you’re ready, click the Download button . 

Step 4: Open Up The File In Google Drive / Google Slides 

Your presentation is now downloaded to your hard drive , and your goal is to upload it to your Google Drive Account. 

To start, open Google Drive and click the New button in the top left corner. In the list that pops down, choose File Upload . Navigate through your hard drive and double-click on the PPTX file. 

The presentation you made in Canva will open up in Google Slides. You can now review your entire presentation and change any element. 

How To Save Time & Present Your Slideshow Directly In Canva

Once your presentation is ready, click the Present button in the top right corner. You will be presented with four options. Choose one of the four options, then click Present to display your presentation on your screen. 

• Present Full Screen – Show your presentation in full screen and flip through it at your own pace. 
• Presenter View – Show your presentation with notes for each slide. 
• Present And Record – Show your presentation while also recording your voice. 
• Autoplay – Let the computer show your presentation at a set pace. 

So rather than moving your presentation to Google Slides, it might be easier to create and display it in Canva. Either way, you now have all the tools at your disposal to pick the option that best suits your style!

Happy Editing!

How to Import Canva Presentation in Google Slides

The only thing better than Google Slides is Canva! If you want to use the two together, here’s a sleek solution.

You’re creating a presentation. You want to know if you can make it beautiful by starting in Canva but allow others to make edits by switching over to Google Slides.

This is a good question!

Canva has eye-catching presentation templates and millions of photos and videos to add to each and every slide. But not everyone has Canva. And even if they do, not everyone knows how to use it for editing slide decks.

On the other hand, everyone has a Google account and knows—or can quickly learn—how to use Google Slides. So can you switch between the two?

To edit a Canva presentation in Google Slides, export it as a Microsoft PowerPoint file (PPTX) and then import it into Google Slides.

This tutorial will show you how to do this step-by-step, with screenshots.

Part 1: Export the Presentation as a PPTX File From Canva

Step 1: Go to Canva.com , log in to your account, and open the presentation.

Step 2: Click on the “Share” button in the upper right corner of the screen.

Step 3: The “Share this design” dialog window will pop up. Scroll down to the bottom and click “More.”

Step 4: Scroll down and look for an option called “Microsoft PowerPoint” under “Save.”

Step 5: Click the purple “Download” button. The presentation will download to your device as a PPTX file.

As soon as the PPTX file has finished downloading, you can proceed to Part 2, the next and final part of this tutorial.

Part 2: Import the Presentation in Google Slides

Step 1: Go to Google Slides and create a blank presentation.

Step 2: From the top menu, click “File,” then “Import slides.”

Step 3: Go to the “Upload” tab and drag and drop the PPTX file for your Canva presentation into Google Slides.

Step 4: Make sure that the “Keep original theme” checkbox is selected, then click the yellow “Import slides” button.

Step 5: You’re all set! You can now edit your Canva presentation in Google Slides.

Keep in mind that some design elements on your slides may be positioned differently and need some additional alignment.

Final Words

Thank you for reading this far and I hope this tutorial helped!

As you can see, there is no direct integration between Canva and Google Slides. But the workaround—exporting the slide deck as a PPTX file from Canva and then importing it into Google Slides—works quite nicely.

If you found this tutorial useful, chances are you’ll want to know how to import your Canva designs into Google Docs , too.

Thank you this was extremely easy and helpful!

Appreciate you stopping by to say thanks, Amanda! Glad we were able to help.

How to Import Canva Designs into Google Slides

Learn how to import Canva presentations into Google Slides. You can convert any graphics or Canva template into a PowerPoint or Slides deck.

Canva is everyone’s favorite tool for creating social media graphics, YouTube video thumbnails, Instagram stories, logos, and even regular presentations. The app is jam-packed with beautiful, ready-to-use templates that make it easy for even non-designers to create unique and impressive designs.

Google Slides Template Gallery

Google Slides is probably the most popular app for creating presentations but its built-in template library is limited and haven’t seen any update in a long time.

Cavan Presentation Templates

Compare the Slides library to Canva and you’ll find thousands of presentation templates that will fit the needs of any project, be it in education, business, or personal.

Import Canva Templates into Google Slides

If you prefer using Canva for creating presentation slides and Google Slides for collaborative editing, the good news is that you can get the best of both worlds. You can easily import Canva designs into Google Slides and then edit them in Google Slides.

Here’s how you convert any Canva designs into Google Slides.

Open any presentation or graphic created inside Canva.

Click the 3-dot horizontal menu on the right side of the screen and choose the Microsoft PowerPoint format under the Share section.

The PowerPoint export format is available for Canva presentations as well as for any other graphic created inside Canva. If the PowerPoint icon is not visible, you can click the See all link to get a list of all the available formats.

Now that you have the PowerPoint file on the desktop, open your Google Drive and click the New > File Upload button bot to import the .pptx file into Google Drive.

Once the file is uploaded in Google Drive, choose File > Save as Google Slides to convert the PowerPoint file into Google Slides.

You will now be able to edit the presentation in Google Slides. The import may not be perfect, but because individual elements of the presentation are imported separately, it is easy to make changes.

Also, you should ensure that if any custom fonts are used in the Canva presentation, you have the same enabled inside your Google Slides as well. It is recommended that you either use standard common fonts or choose any of the Google Fonts since they are available both in Google Slides and Canva.

Import Canva Designs as Images

If you would like your Canva design to appear as is in Google Slides, you can consider importing them as images in Google Slides. The designs will be displayed exactly as they are in Canva but you’ll lose the ability to edit them in Google Slides.

• Open any Canva graphic, click the Download button, and choose PNG Image as the download format.
• Switch to Google Slides, go to the Slides menu and choose Change Background .
• Choose the image exported from Canva and click OK to apply the background.

Do make sure that your Slides dimensions are the same as the Canva graphic dimensions else the image may appear stretched.

In today’s digital world, presentations are an important tool for effective communication. Canva and Google Slides are two popular platforms that offer a wide range of options for creating visually appealing presentations. However, there may be situations where you need to convert Canva presentations to Google Slides for collaboration or compatibility reasons. In this article, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of converting Canva presentations to Google Slides without compromising design or layout.

Exporting the Canva Presentation

First, save the presentation you want to convert to Google Slides. To do this:

• Open your Canva account and find the presentation you want to convert;
• Click the “Upload” button in the top right corner of the editor;
• From the drop-down menu, select the “PDF – Standard” option;
• Select the page range you want, or select “All Pages” if you want to convert the entire presentation.

After that, click the “Download” button to save the Canva presentation as a PDF to your computer.

Converting PDF to Google Slides 

For this, you will need to:

• Open Google Drive and log in to your account;
• Click on the “+ New” button on the left side and select “Upload File”;
• Find the PDF file you downloaded from Canva and click “Open” to upload it to Google Drive;
• Once the download is complete, right-click on the PDF file and select “Open with” from the drop-down menu;
• Select “Google Slides” to open the PDF;
• The platform will automatically convert the PDF into slides, preserving the content and layout as much as possible.

Review the converted slides and make any necessary adjustments or edits.

Refining the Converted Presentation 

• Check the formatting: Since the conversion process is automated, some elements may require adjustments. Pay attention to font styles, alignment, and spacing so that they match the original Canva presentation;
• Edit the images and graphics: Replace Canva-specific elements with similar elements available in Google Slides. Use the “Replace Image” or “Replace Shape” options to maintain visual integrity;
• Customize layouts and themes: Apply built-in Google Slides themes or manually change the layout to achieve the look you want;
• Align text boxes: Double-check that text boxes are properly aligned. Make the necessary changes to keep the content cohesive and readable.

If your Canva presentation had animations or transitions, you may need to recreate them in Google Slides. Use animations and transitions in Google Slides to add visual interest to your presentation.

Sharing and Collaborating 

For the last step of the conversion, you’ll need:

• Click the “Share” button in the upper-right corner of the Google Slides editor;
• Depending on your requirements, set the sharing permission to “Anyone with a link” or specific individuals;
• Copy the link you’ve created and share it with your target audience.

Participants can then view, comment on or edit the Google Slides presentation, enabling seamless collaboration and feedback.

When you may need to convert Canva Presentations to Google Slides

There are several situations when you may need to convert Canva Presentations to Google Slides:

• Collaboration: If you work with a team or colleagues who mostly use Google Slides for collaboration and editing, converting Canva presentations to it will allow you to collaborate and edit seamlessly in real time;
• Sharing and Accessibility: Google Slides is a widely used platform, and sharing a presentation this format ensures that recipients can easily access and view the content without the need for a Canva account or software;
• Compatibility: In some cases, you may need to present your slides on a device or in an environment where Canva is not available. Converting your Canva presentation to Google Slides provides compatibility across devices and operating systems;
• Integration with Google Workspace: If you already use G Suite for productivity, such as Gmail, Google Drive, and Docs, converting Canva presentations to Google Slides provides seamless integration and a single workflow;
• Access to Google Slides features: It offers a number of unique features, such as real-time collaboration, extensive sharing capabilities, and integration with other services. By converting your Canva presentation, you can use these features to enhance your presentation;
• Presentation Viewing and Remote Presentations: Google Slides provides a special Presenter View feature that offers useful tools and features for presentations. Converting Canva presentations to Google Slides allows you to take advantage of this feature and makes it easier to deliver remote presentations via video conferencing platforms;
• Editing capabilities and flexibility: While Canva offers a user-friendly interface for creating designs, Google Slides provides more advanced editing capabilities. By converting your Canva presentation, you can refine and customize the content, layouts, and animations as you see fit.

Remember that the decision to convert a Canva presentation to Google Slides depends on your specific requirements and the preferences of your colleagues or audience. Evaluate the situation and choose the platform that best fits your needs.

Setting Up Your Canva Account

Once you have created an account, you can start designing your presentation in Canva. Canva offers a variety of templates and design elements to help you create a professional-looking presentation.

Creating Your Design in Canva

Canva is a popular graphic design tool that allows users to create visually appealing designs with ease. To import your Canva design into Google Slides, you must first create your design in Canva.

To get started, log in to your Canva account and select the type of design you want to create. Canva offers a variety of design templates, including presentations, social media graphics, and more. Once you have selected your design type, you can choose from a variety of pre-made templates or start from scratch.

Canva’s drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to add elements to your design. You can add text, images, shapes, and more to create a design that meets your needs. Canva also offers a variety of design elements, including icons, illustrations, and stock photos, that you can use to enhance your design.

When creating your design in Canva, it’s important to keep in mind the dimensions of your Google Slides presentation. You can find the dimensions of your Google Slides presentation by navigating to File > Page Setup in Google Slides. Once you know the dimensions of your presentation, you can adjust the size of your Canva design to match.

Exporting Your Canva Design

If you’ve created a beautiful design in Canva and you want to import it into Google Slides, you’ll need to export it first. Here’s how to do it.

Choosing the Right Format

Before you export your design, you’ll need to choose the right format. Canva offers several export options, including PDF, PNG, and JPEG. If you want to import your design into Google Slides, we recommend choosing the PNG format. This will ensure that your design looks crisp and clear when you import it.

Downloading Your Design

Once you’ve chosen the right format, it’s time to download your design. To do this, click on the “Download” button in the top right-hand corner of the Canva interface. Select “PNG” as the file format, and choose the size you want to download. Click the “Download” button, and your design will be saved to your computer.

That’s it! You’ve successfully exported your Canva design in the right format for importing into Google Slides. Now you’re ready to import your design and start creating a beautiful slideshow.

Importing Your Canva Design Into Google Slides

Opening google slides.

Once you are logged in, click on the “New” button in the upper left corner of the screen, then select “Google Slides” from the drop-down menu. This will open a new, blank Google Slides presentation.

Uploading Your Canva Design

To upload your Canva design into Google Slides, you will need to have your design saved in a compatible format. The easiest way to do this is to download your design as a PowerPoint file from Canva. Once you have your file ready, follow these steps:

• In Google Slides, click on the “File” menu in the upper left corner of the screen.
• Select “Import slides” from the drop-down menu.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter any issues while importing Canva designs into Google Slides, don’t worry. This section will help you troubleshoot some of the most common issues.

Image Quality Issues

One of the most common issues that users face when importing Canva designs into Google Slides is image quality. If you notice that the image quality is poor or blurry, try the following:

• Check the resolution of the image in Canva. Make sure it is at least 300dpi.
• Save the image as a PNG file instead of a JPG file. PNG files are higher quality and will retain more detail.
• Check the size of the image. If it is too small, it will appear blurry when enlarged in Google Slides.

Size and Scaling Problems

Another issue that users face is size and scaling problems. If you notice that your design is not the correct size or is not scaling properly, try the following:

• Check the size of the design in Canva. Make sure it is the correct size for your intended use.
• When importing the design into Google Slides, choose the “Fit” option instead of “Original Size” to ensure that it scales properly.
• If you need to resize the design in Google Slides, hold down the Shift key while dragging the corners to maintain the aspect ratio.

• Check the color profile of the design in Canva. Make sure it is set to RGB.
• When importing the design into Google Slides, make sure that the color mode is set to RGB.
• If the colors still don’t match, try adjusting the brightness, contrast, or saturation in Google Slides to get a closer match.

How to Change Slides Orientation in Google Slides

A change of perspective is always good! Do you want your public to look at your slides in a new way? Changing slides orientation will do the work. In this tutorial you’re going to learn  how to go from horizontal slides, to vertical ones (and vice versa!). 

How to change page orientation in Google Slides

Google Slides usually comes in horizontal layout. If you want to change the format and have vertical slides , you only need to follow  three simple steps : 

• Go to File →  Page Setup . Here, you can change the format, but Google Slides does not have a premade vertical option. 
• Click on  Custom and you will be able to change the actual size of the canvas. The value on the left represents how wide your slide will be, and the one on the right is how tall. You can choose the values you want, but we recommend just swapping the values, this way the slide will be the same size but it will be vertical instead of horizontal.

Note that the changes in format you make will apply to the whole presentation, it is not possible to change the layout of a single slide. 

Have you changed your mind and want to know how to change the slide orientation again? This time it is even easier, you only need to select any of the three presets on  Page Setup .

Pro tip:  you can create a printable slide, if you select 21.4 cm x 29.7 cm. Those are the values for a standard A4 sheet of paper. 

Now your creations will know no barriers, neither horizontal nor vertical! Take a look at  our web and choose a template to start practising. Or, if you want to keep learning, read one of our many  Google Slides Tutorials .
