Pages and formats
Slides, sizes, and making one design fit every platform.
Pages
A page is one slide. The thumbnails on the left show the pages of the format you are looking at.
- Add page adds a blank page with the same size and background after the current one.
- Page → Duplicate page copies the current page.
- Hover a thumbnail to delete a page (a design keeps at least one).
Formats
| Format | Size | Made for |
|---|---|---|
| Portrait 4:5 | 1080 × 1350 | Instagram and Facebook feed, LinkedIn. The default: it takes the most screen in a feed. |
| Square 1:1 | 1080 × 1080 | Feeds everywhere; X. |
| Story 9:16 | 1080 × 1920 | Stories, Reel and TikTok covers. |
| Landscape 16:9 | 1920 × 1080 | YouTube thumbnails, X, LinkedIn links. |
| Pin 2:3 | 1000 × 1500 | Pinterest. |
| Custom | Any size from 16 to 8,000 pixels | Anything else. Set it under Page settings. |
Make another format
- Below the canvas, choose Add format and pick one.
- Soda re-lays every slide of the current format into the new one: text is re-wrapped, images are re-cropped around their focus point, and everything is kept inside the safe area. It is one step you can undo.
- If a note says some layers "need a look", check those: they are the ones that had to move the most.
- Switch between formats with the tabs below the canvas.
Each format is its own set of pages, so you can adjust the Story version without touching the feed version. The words stay linked, though: edit a headline in one format and the others follow (turn off with View → Edit text in all formats).
Page settings
With nothing selected, choose Page settings: the page's name, format, width and height, and background (a colour or a gradient).
