Recraft Studio offers two upscaling options, Crisp and Creative, depending on your needs for resolution and detail.

• Crisp upscale increases resolution and sharpness without altering the structure or content of the image. Ideal for icons, vector-style illustrations, and assets where visual consistency is critical.
• Creative upscale enhances resolution while subtly regenerating image content. It can improve anatomy, textures, and fine details, making it well suited for photos, portraits, or group scenes. Note: all creative upscale results are slightly different, and some iterations might render better than others.

Note: Creative Upscale is a more resource-intensive process than Crisp Upscale. If you only need to increase resolution, use Crisp Upscale for faster results. If you want to enhance small details, improve anatomy (such as faces or hands), or add definition to background elements, Creative Upscale is the more suitable option.How to upscale an image:

1. Select an image on the canvas.
2. In the context panel, click either Crisp Upscale or Creative Upscale, depending on the image type and desired result.
3. Wait for the upscaled version to appear on the canvas.
4. When you’re satisfied, export the upscaled image in your preferred format (e.g., PNG, JPG, PDF).

Note: Upscaling doesn’t support transparent images. The result of the upscaled image with a transparent background will have a white background instead of a transparent background.
