How to use the Carousel Maker

  1. 1Pick a template such as Tips list, Step by step or Myth vs fact, and a size: square, portrait or LinkedIn PDF.
  2. 2Paste an outline in the Outline panel to create one slide per heading, or edit the sample slides directly on the canvas.
  3. 3Click any text, shape or photo to edit it. Drag to move, use the handles to resize, and undo with Ctrl/⌘ Z. Your draft saves itself in this browser.
  4. 4Set your name, handle and photo for the footer, choose the slide counter and swipe arrow, then export a PDF for LinkedIn or a ZIP of PNGs for Instagram.

Frequently asked questions

Why does LinkedIn need a PDF for carousels?

LinkedIn stopped its native carousel post type, so creators upload a PDF as a document post instead. LinkedIn shows every page as a slide with arrows, which is why this tool exports one page per slide.

Is the text in the LinkedIn PDF searchable?

Yes. Each page is a sharp image of your slide plus an invisible text layer, so the words can be selected, searched and read by screen readers, while the design looks exactly like the editor.

What's the best length for a LinkedIn carousel?

Most strong LinkedIn carousels have 6–10 pages: a cover with a clear promise, one idea per page, and a final page asking people to follow, comment or save.
