I don't see any options for setting the canvas to a checkerboard either. Hmm. Maybe that was done as part of the png export? Interesting question. The canvas is set to transparent by default, but you have to set a colour as well (default is white).

I would guess you set the canvas to alpha of some value, then export the page to PNG, then display it in gwenview and take a screenshot.
Perhaps there's a better way, a Gimp filter or something.
Else, make your own fake grid in Ink, on the bottom layer.

It's not "canvas" :) It's just a small checkerboard pattern that I quickly made with Tile Clones.
