Recommended size
Square 1080 x 1080 remains the simplest format. 1080 x 1350 gives more text space but requires tighter layout discipline.

LinkedIn Carousel PDF Export: Format, Size, and Best Practices
LinkedIn reads carousels as PDF documents. Carouzel prepares a clean, readable, multi-page file ready to publish.
What you get
- Multi-page PDF format for LinkedIn upload.
- Square or vertical slides depending on your publishing style.
- PNG export available when you need each slide separately.
Readability
A strong LinkedIn PDF keeps text short, margins generous, and hierarchy clear on every slide.
Reuse
Keep the PDF for LinkedIn and export PNG as well when you want to reuse slides in newsletters or Instagram.
FAQ
