Detailed guide to the Image Padding & Canvas Extender

The Image Padding & Canvas Extender provides a focused way to prepare, process and review. It supports a common practical need: Prepare images for publishing, social media, app icons, design handoff or lightweight asset production. You can complete that task without setting up a larger application or unrelated workflow.

Choose the right input for Image Padding & Canvas Extender

Start with padding and make sure it represents the final material you intend to process.

Keep the original image when applying lossy JPG, WebP or animation compression because repeated re-encoding can reduce detail.
