If your image is blurry in Canva, it's likely due to low resolution or improper scaling. Ensure your original image has a high resolution and avoid enlarging it too much within Canva, as stretching can degrade quality. For optimal clarity, use images that match your project's dimensions or are slightly larger. Additionally, check Canva's download settings and choose higher DPI (dots per inch) options for print projects to improve output quality. Another tip is to always preview your design before finalizing to ensure crisp, clear images.
