Why does my template look different after import?

Imports from Canva, Figma and Polotno translate designs automatically. Most come through clean — when something shifts, it's usually one of these:

Fonts#

If the original font isn't available, a fallback is substituted. Fix: upload the font to your Brand Library, then set it on the affected text layers:

Effects and filters#

Tool-specific effects (complex shadows, blend modes, filters) don't always have an exact equivalent. Fix: select the layer and rebuild the effect with Orshot's style controls — shadows, strokes and blurs are all there.

Text sizing#

Edited or dynamic text can outgrow the box it was imported with. Fix: check that dynamic text layers use Text Autofit: Fit so long values shrink instead of overflowing.

Spacing and alignment#

Auto-layout from the source tool becomes fixed positions. Fix: drag elements or use exact values in Position & Size.
