Convert LINEA to PNG

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert LINEA to PNG?
Yes - LINEA converts to PNG.

Open the sketch in Linea Sketch, tap the share/export button and choose PNG - you can pick a transparent PNG or a flattened PNG, with or without the template and background. Since a .linea file already stores its layers as PNGs internally, this is the highest-quality still-image export.

Why convert LINEA to PNG?

PNG is lossless and supports transparency, so people export to .png when they want crisp lines, clean text or a see-through background to drop the artwork onto other designs. It is the best choice when image quality matters more than file size.

About these formats

Quality & what to watch

  • A PNG export is still flattened to one image - separate editable layers are only kept if you export as PSD instead.
  • Choosing the transparent option drops the paper background; pick flattened if you want the background baked in.
  • PNG files are larger than JPEG, which matters when sharing many sketches at once.

Frequently asked questions

Can Linea export a transparent PNG?
Yes. Linea Sketch offers a transparent PNG option that keeps the background clear, plus a flattened PNG that bakes it in.
Is PNG better than JPG for my sketch?
For line art, text and transparency, yes - PNG is lossless and sharper. JPG only wins on file size for photo-like images.
Does the PNG keep my layers?
No. PNG is a single flattened image. Use the PSD export to preserve individual layers.
Can I include or exclude the background?
Yes. When exporting you can choose whether to include the template and background in the PNG.
