Step 2: Style your page

Style the header area as you see fit with a background Photo, Title and Subtitle.

Add a title
  • Users can easily add a title & subtitle by clicking on the text box and begin typing.

  • Easily change the theme or try new themes by selecting a theme from the list on the right side of the screen. You can toggle through themes and see them change instantly.

  • Add a photo as a background for your header. Select the “+” icon and then choose a way you would like to import a photo from the menu on the right side of the screen.

  • Users can add free high-quality stock photos to their presentation or add images of their own from different sources such as Dropbox, Google Photos or their own computer.

  • The “Free Photos” offered in adobe Spark are all copyright free.

Step 3: Adding a new section to your story

After you complete the heading section of your page, by scrolling down you will see the option to add new content to your story.

Your page will be separated by sections that fall under each completed section.

For each new section, users have the following options to add /organize their page:

  • Photo – add a free stock photo or a user’s own photo

  • Text – add a heading and/or paragraph text

  • Button – create a custom link or call to action for your page

  • Video – insert a stock video, a user’s own video or use Spark to create a new video for the page.

  • Photo grid – create an interesting collage of images to showcase on your page  

  • Glideshow – works similar to a slideshow. Users can add photos and text that will transition naturally as viewers scroll through that section of their page.

  • Split layout – create different layout styles within a single section. Split layout allows users to add multiple assets in a section side-by-side.

Step 4: Publish and sharing your page

Once a user is happy with their page, they can easily publish and share their page by clicking on the “Share” icon at the top of the page.

Under the “Share” icon, users should choose the “publish and share link” option. From there, users will be shown a pop-up where they can choose to add a title, pick a category for their page, chose to share on the Adobe Spark homepage, and finally an option to create a link.

Users have multiple options for sharing their page. By simply copying and sharing the link, anyone who has the link can view the webpage.

Step 5: Editing your page after publishing

  • Users can always make edits later to their page, even after it is published and shared.

  • Simply log in to your Spark account and select the project from your homepage.

  • Once you have made edits or additions, remember to share the project again so the link is updated with the new edits.

Step 6: Get Creative!

  • Remember that your Adobe Spark page can be as simple or as creative as you can imagine.

  • Users can browse through templates on the Spark home page for inspiration or to use on their page.
