Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How do I recreate a website in Figma without building it from scratch?
Export to Figma lets you capture an entire webpage or select specific elements and bring them into Figma as fully editable designs. The captured designs retain organized layers, text, colors, and layout structure, so you can work with the existing design instead of rebuilding it manually.
2. Why does my website look different when I recreate it in Figma?
Export to Figma accurately converts most website elements, but some complex layouts may require minor adjustments after export. Fonts and images are generally preserved, although an alternative font may be used when the original font isn’t accessible or an asset is protected.
3. Can I turn a website screenshot into editable Figma layers?
Export to Figma is designed to capture visible website content as editable Figma designs rather than simply creating a flat screenshot. The exported result includes organized layers along with editable text, colors, and layout structure.
4. Can I capture only a specific section of a website?
Yes. You can capture an entire webpage or select specific elements using the Select Element feature. This feature is free and does not count toward your monthly capture limit.
5. Why do website-to-Figma conversions sometimes lose fonts or design details?
Most fonts and images are captured accurately, but some may not transfer exactly if a font isn’t accessible or an asset is protected. Similarly, complex layouts may require minor adjustments after export to match the original design.
