Tips

  • Use 2× or 3× scale for crisp Retina / high-DPI output.
  • Set background to Transparent to get a window-only PNG with a checkered preview.
  • The tab label in the titlebar can be changed to match your filename.
  • Use PNG for code with text (lossless); use JPEG only if you need a smaller file and can accept minor quality loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my code get uploaded anywhere?

No. All rendering happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API. Your code never leaves your device.

Why does the exported image look slightly different from the preview?

The preview uses live DOM/CSS rendering while the export uses the Canvas API for pixel-perfect output. Font rendering may differ slightly between browsers.

Can I use a custom font?

The tool uses system monospace fonts (Fira Code, Cascadia Code, Consolas). If those are installed on your machine they will appear in the export; otherwise the browser falls back to a generic monospace.

What is the maximum code size?

There is no hard limit, but very long files will produce very tall images. For best results keep the visible snippet to 30–50 lines.

How do I get a transparent background?

Select the Transparent swatch in the Background section. The preview shows a checkerboard pattern; the exported PNG will have a true alpha-transparent background.

What scale should I use?

2× is recommended for most use cases (crisp on Retina screens). Use 3× when you need maximum sharpness for presentations or printed documentation.
