The 820 × 312 preset is a wide Facebook Page-cover layout. Facebook uses different display crops across surfaces, so treat it as a starting canvas rather than a guarantee that every pixel will remain visible.
Wide cover layouts remove much of a square source. Compare the subject placement with the mobile Page preview.
Before you use the download
- Keep important words near the middle and leave room for profile imagery and interface controls. Preview the actual Page on mobile before publishing.
- Move the crop toward the subject if the default center crop cuts it off. Use Fit (pad) when preserving the entire artwork matters more than filling the frame.
- A cover photo is not an event cover or a regular feed post. Choose the matching preset in the main resizer for those tasks.
