Magic Switch is an advanced tool available for Canva Pro, Canva Enterprise, Canva for Education, and Canva for Nonprofits users. It combines and evolves the functionalities of the previous Magic Resize feature, allowing you to adjust and repurpose your designs seamlessly.

What Can Magic Switch Do?
Magic Switch allows you to translate your designs, transform them into different document types, and resize them effortlessly. Here's a closer look at each of these functionalities:

1. **Translate**: Easily adapt the language of your designs. This feature focuses on ensuring your text elements are translated accurately to suit your global audience.

1. **Transform to Document**: Take any design and convert it into a new document type, like turning a pitch deck into a blog post. Please note there is a monthly usage limit of 500 transformations for each paid account, which resets with your monthly billing cycle.
