Canva handoff: keep editing where your marketing lives

How does Coverfairy's Canva handoff work?Every paid package includes Canva handoffs. Choose a best-effort editable version, artwork and text mapped to Canva elements you can restyle, or an exact flattened version that pixel-matches the approved cover. Production print files still come from Coverfairy, where the calculated wrap and preflight live.

Three steps, no surprises

Purchase the package

Ebook, Print, and Launch kit purchases all include the Canva handoff for that cover project.

Choose the version

Editable, for continued restyling in Canva, or exact, when the approved cover must not shift by a pixel.

Continue in Canva

Build ads, social posts, A+ content, and series graphics on the cover without re-uploading screenshots.

Why a cover tool hands off to Canva

Canva is where most indie authors already make launch graphics. Instead of trapping the approved cover in an export folder, the handoff places it in that workflow directly, with the editable version letting you swap taglines, test ad text, or apply a brand typeface Coverfairy's library does not carry.

Editable versus exact, honestly

The editable handoff is best-effort: Canva's text and image model differs from Coverfairy's cover engine, so complex effects may simplify and fonts map to Canva's closest equivalents. The exact version exists for the moments that matter, it is the flattened, approved cover, faithful to the pixel.

The print boundary

Canva is excellent for marketing surfaces, but the production files, the calculated wrap, spine, bleed, and preflighted PDF, always come from Coverfairy. A Canva canvas cannot carry the print engine's geometry, so the handoff is deliberately a marketing bridge, not a production exit.

Honest boundary. Coverfairy is independent and not affiliated with Canva. The editable handoff is best-effort by nature; when fidelity is critical, use the exact version, and always produce print files from Coverfairy rather than rebuilding the wrap in Canva.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Canva handoff included in every package?

Yes, all three one-time packages include Canva handoffs for that cover project.

Will my fonts match in Canva?

The editable version maps to Canva's closest equivalents, so lines can reflow; the exact version always matches the approved cover.

Can I print from the Canva version?

Use Coverfairy's print export instead; it carries the calculated spine, bleed, and preflight that a Canva canvas cannot.
