Edit Text on the Canvas

Learn how to update and replace text that is already in a text box.



Select the text box on the template.

Ensure the text box is selected before typing or pasting.  
Then type in the desired text. 

To delete existing content, highlight the text and press Backspace or Delete on the keyboard.

If there is text from an external source (e.g., Word documents, web pages, PDFs) that needs to be placed on the design, select the text from that source and copy with Ctrl/Command + C and paste with Ctrl/Command + V.
