Has anyone successfully taken a canva file and convert it into indesign?

I need to convert some files from canva into indesign without redesigning them. Has anyone done this sucessfully? (I am new to this Co. and all they use is Canva and have heavy edits coming my way).

so the optimal workflow is working from Illustrator to Canva via a series of SVGs or PDFs(likewise Indesign - Canva via PDFs), but not from Canva - unless you want to reverse engineer PDFs from Canva in Illustrator. Good luck.

That is what I thought. Thank you! (sigh)

I'd get to like Canva. Or quit. 🙂

Sorry - there's no easy way. There are some PDF converters that will convert PDFs to InDesign files - but far from ideal. 

You can then use Acrobats editing tools to edit the PDF.

You can edit Text (provided you have the fonts installed)

You can edit Vector Graphics by marqueing the vector object - and use Edit With and navigate to the Illustrator Application

Similary the same with Raster Images. 

You can replace images within the PDF - and you can do other things too. 

If you really needed to - you can place the Entire PDF in InDesign https://creativepro.com/placing-all-the-pages-of-a-pdf-inside-indesign/

And then overlay the new graphics/text etc on top of the old design (perhaps blank it out with a white background or another 'messy method'

Then overlay your new graphics/text.

You can then export the PDF with the updated changes. 

Not the best solutions - but there's ways and methods.
