How to Generate a Quote Graphic
- Enter Your Text: Type your quote into the QUOTE TEXT box, and fill in the AUTHOR name. The preview on the right will update in real-time.
- Choose a Preset: Want a specific vibe instantly? Select a DESIGN PRESET like "Film Noir" or "Cyberpunk" to automatically apply curated fonts, colors, and decorative elements.
- Customize Typography: Under the Typography section, you can select from our built-in premium fonts, or choose Custom Google Font... and type in the exact name of any font from Google Fonts (e.g., "Oswald" or "Roboto"). The tool will fetch it instantly!
- Set Your Format: Choose your aspect ratio:
- 1:1 (Square): Best for Instagram grid and Facebook posts.
- 9:16 (Portrait): Best for Instagram Stories, TikTok, and Pinterest.
- 16:9 (Landscape): Best for YouTube community posts and Twitter.
- Add Your Branding (Optional): Expand the BRANDING tab to upload a transparent PNG or SVG logo. Use the sliders to resize it and position it perfectly within the graphic.
- Export: Click DOWNLOAD QUOTE PNG to render and save the master 1080p high-resolution file to your device.
Common Problems & Tips
- My Custom Google Font isn't loading: Ensure you spelled the font name exactly as it appears on Google Fonts. If the font name has two words, include the space (e.g., "Libre Baskerville").
- The text is overflowing the edges: The tool uses fixed typographic scales to ensure maximum quality. If your quote is a massive paragraph, you may need to break it up into two separate graphics, or use a slightly narrower font like "Oswald".
- My logo has a white box around it! You uploaded a JPG image for your logo. JPGs cannot be transparent. You must upload a PNG or SVG file if you want the background of your logo to be invisible.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the exported graphics high enough quality for print?
The graphics are exported at a master resolution based on 1080px (e.g., 1080x1080 or 1080x1920). This is perfect for all digital and social media use, and can be used for small prints, but might not be large enough for a massive physical poster.
Why does the preview look smaller than my export?
The preview box automatically scales down the massive 1080px canvas so it can fit on your laptop or mobile screen while you edit. When you click download, it exports the full, unscaled master file.
