How to Edit an Image in an Article with Canva

This article covers editing an image within an article record using Canva.

Before you start: Make sure you've connected your account to Canva. See Getting Started with Canva in Evolved Office for one-time setup steps.

Steps

1. Go to your Articles library.
   
2. Click the article you want to edit — this opens the main info form.
3. Look for the image slot(s) on the article. Depending on the image format/size, you may see multiple Edit in Canva launch buttons.
   
4. Click the Edit in Canva button for the image you want to edit.
5. The Canva editor will open with your image loaded. Make your edits — add text, logos, graphics, etc.
6. When you're finished, click the Evolved Office icon at the bottom of the left-hand navigation in Canva, then Save.
   
7. Choose whether to:
8. • Save as a copy — check this box to keep your original image untouched and create a new version, or
   • Overwrite original — leave the box unchecked to replace the existing image with your edits.
8. Once published, your edited image will appear in that image slot on the article — and will also update in your Asset Manager.

Tips

• Articles can have more than one image slot (different formats/sizes: 754 x 300, 360 x 200, or 189 x 253, heights are all variable), so make sure you click the Edit in Canva button for the specific image you want to change.
• For general Canva editor tips (browsing your library, image types, etc.), see Getting Started with Canva in Evolved Office.
• The same image, if used elsewhere, will reflect your edit in the Asset Manager too, so double check whether you want a copy or an overwrite if the image is reused in other places.
• You can switch to a different image or design entirely while inside Canva — see How to Browse Your Evolved Office Library from Within Canva for details.
• Works with both free and paid Canva accounts. A few advanced photo tools (like background remover) require a paid plan.
• For help with specific photo tools (cropping, filters, background removal, etc.), see Canva's Photo Editor guide.
