Photos exporting incorrectly (Repost! Sorry. Delete old one please.)

I used to use Adobe Photoshop Sketch, and I've recently converted to Draw, as I like the tools a lot more. I've drawn lots of things so far, but whenever I try exporting, it doesn't export in the format I wanted it to be. For example, if it's a 800x800 format, it exports as 1280x720 with the picture in the corner of a black screen. I really don't want to crop every single image, taking away lots of quality, so is there any way to change this? Sorry if this is normal, I'm new so I just have no idea what to do. Thanks. (Sorry this is a repost, can someone delete the last one? I didn't mean to say it was answered. Please I need help as soon as possible!)

Are you  saving a .png to Photos? Because Draw does behave differently than Sketch when saving an image.

When saving a drawing as as an image, Draw exports at 2048x1536 with the artwork being cropped to what’s visible on the screen. Also, with Draw, any strokes outside of the primary canvas area are actually considered part of the composition so any save will show that gray background because there are marks on it (this is not true for Sketch).

You can try a couple of things:

You can try a couple of things:

* Zoom into your drawing before saving as a .png to get the largest version of it. Then save to Photos. Then crop if you need to.

* Or, to export a drawing at its highest resolution, and with a canvas size the dimensions of what's listed, from the Share menu choose Send to CC Files as PDF (you'll be able to access those files here: Adobe Creative Cloud).

Let me know if that helps.
