Pro Tips for Citing in Canva

1. Add a Text Box for the Citation
   Click the “Text” option in the left toolbar and select “Add a little bit of body text.” This creates a new text box where you can type your citation.

2. Place Citations Near the Source
   Position your citation close to the referenced image, quote, or data. This helps viewers understand what the citation refers to.

3. Use Proper Citation Formats
   Type citations in APA, MLA, Chicago, or any required format. Canva does not format citations automatically, so you must manually enter the correct format.

4. Include URLs When Needed
   For online sources, include the full URL. You can paste it directly in the text box or hyperlink it by selecting the text and clicking the link icon.

Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them

1. Forgetting to Add Citations
   If your design includes data, quotes, or third-party media, always cite your sources. Omitting citations can lead to credibility issues.

2. Using Inconsistent Citation Styles
   Choose one citation style (APA, MLA, etc.) and stick with it throughout your design for consistency.

3. Poor Text Visibility
   Light-colored or overly stylized fonts may make citations hard to read. Use high-contrast colors and clean fonts.

4. Cluttering the Design
   Avoid placing too many citations within the main design area. Use footnotes or a final slide/page to organize them better.

5. Hyperlinks Not Working in PDFs
   If you export your design as a PDF, test your hyperlinks to ensure they’re still clickable in the final version.
