    Great video, so easy to understand. How do you copy a large body of text into Canva so that when pasting into Canva the pages are created automatically, so paste page 1 and then subsequent pages are created automatically?

    Hi Fabienne. I wanted to create an eBook that gives readers instructions. So, it's a "how to" eBook & I wanted to sell it on my website. Do I have to change the pixels that comes with the eBook template on Canva...which is 512 px x 800 px?

    If you create an ebook to sell, how are you able to control it being published for free elsewhere or sent to people who haven't paid?

    • @fabiennehansen
      @fabiennehansen  Месяц назад

      You won't be able to, unfortunately. But that's why it's key to have a clause in your terms and conditions around distributing your products. I recommend the Contract Shop. Also, make sure to add a copyright clause on every page of your ebook.
