How to Create a Webtoon || Line Webtoon Format

Webtoons Upload format is 800px by 1280px since webtoons are made up of regular comic pages stacked vertically in LINE Webtoons Platform

Webtoons are another form of comics but instead of the panels being left to right they are drawn top to bottom.

I make my webtoons with my wacom display tablet and with Clip Studio Paint and 3D Models to help me draw backgrounds on my desktop computer.

Here is a quick break down of how I make my webtoon~

Webtoon File Size Format

The first steps you need to make in order to create a webtoon comic is you need to first know what size the webtoon should be.

The webtoon page format will differ depending on which platform you want to upload on; today we will focus on just the LINE webtoon format!

I’ve had a tricky time trying to create a webtoon because I couldn’t remember the file size; well here it is, Line Webtoon file size format is 800px by 1280px.

Now I can just refer back to this post whenever I forget…or save it as a template.

Currently you should save each webtoon file as a jpg/png format up to 2MB in file size regardless of whether it’s a long form image or an individual file.

You can only upload a total of 20MB per episode (chapter) onto their server.

How to Create a Non-Blurry Webtoon

Now the webtoon upload file size (800px by 1280px) is a bit too small to use as a working file format. When I draw in that file size my webtoon image quality ends up low, blurry, and unreadable.

To fix this problem I open up my art program and create my document at 1600px by 2560px (double the file size). Doing this allows me to work on a bigger canvas and have readable, non-blurry webtoon panels.

When it’s time to export it, I make sure to export the file size according the LINE Webtoon format which is 800px by 1280px.

What should you do next?
