Overview
Click Download at the top of the Studio to open the Save preview window. You see every image exactly as it will be saved, speech bubbles included, then choose a file format and a layout and save it to your device.
Downloading doesn’t use any credits. You can download the same comic as many times as you like.
Download your comic
Follow along as you choose a layout and file type in the save preview and download your comic as images.
Where to find it
Open a project in the Studio and look for the Download button in the toolbar at the top of the screen. The Publish button for posting to the community sits right next to it.
Step by step
Open the project you want to save in the Studio and click Download. When the window opens, every page is already selected.
Under File Format, pick PNG, JPG, or WebP. If you’re not sure, choose PNG for the best quality, or JPG for smaller files.
Under Page Selection, choose the pages to save. Use this when you only want part of the comic.
Under Save as, choose One per panel, Joined, or Custom. The table below explains the difference.
Check the preview to see how many images you’ll get and what each one looks like. Every image shows its position and its size in pixels.
Click the save button at the bottom to save the files to your device. The button shows how many images will be saved.
Choosing a layout
| Layout | What you get | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| One per panel | One image for each panel | Posting panels one by one, like an Instagram carousel (when your panels are 4:5 or 1:1) |
| Joined | One long image with every panel joined top to bottom | Reading by scrolling down, like a webtoon |
| Custom | Pages laid out the way you set them: columns, rows, spacing, background, and more | Four-panel strips, A4 printouts, Instagram 4:5 posts |
Building your own layout with Custom
When you choose Custom, you can set each of the options below. The preview updates every time you change something.
- Quick picks — pick a common layout in one click, such as Vertical webtoon, 2×2, Instagram 4:5, or A4 document.
- Columns and Rows — how many panels go across and down on each image. If you set the rows, any extra panels move to the next image.
- Space between panels and Outer margin — the spacing between panels and around the edge.
- Background — the color behind the spacing.
- Page shape — the width-to-height shape of each page.
- Reading order — to read right to left like Japanese manga, choose Right to left (manga).
Good to know
Saving from the app
The Studio in the GenToon app offers the same three layouts. In the app, Joined is selected by default, and saved images go to your photo library. If your plan includes a watermark, it’s added when you save, even though the app preview doesn’t show it.
