Set a 1000 × 1500 canvas or another Pinterest size and export in the browser.

Common Pinterest image dimensions

Standard pin: 1000 × 1500 pixels at a 2:3 aspect ratio
Square pin: 1000 × 1000 pixels
Profile picture: upload a square image, commonly 165 × 165 pixels or larger
Board cover: use a square image, commonly 600 × 600 pixels

Prepare a clean Pinterest export

Use a 2:3 vertical canvas for the standard pin format.
Keep important text readable at mobile feed size.
Use JPG or WebP for photographic pins and PNG for graphics that need crisp text or transparency.
