About this format

Photoshop's working file. It keeps layers, masks, adjustment layers and text layers all editable. It is a format for work in progress, not finished output.

What it can hold

  • Layers, groups, masks
  • Adjustment layers and effects
  • Editable text
  • Paths and channels
  • CMYK, 16- and 32-bit

What it cannot

  • Small size
  • Full support outside Photoshop

When you convert it

PSD → PNGLayers are flattened into one image. What you see is kept.
PSD → JPGFlattened, transparency lost, lossy compression.
PSD → PDFThere is a keep-layers option, but it usually goes out flattened.
PSD → TIFFOne of the few formats that can keep the layers.

When it will not open

  • No Photoshop — GIMP or Krita open it mostly; adjustment layers approximated
  • Newer Photoshop features unknown to an old version
  • Saved without 'Maximize Compatibility', so there is no composite preview

In one line Send png or pdf, not psd. A psd means the other person needs Photoshop, and the text changes if they lack your fonts.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert a PSD file?

Drop the file into the window, pick the target format, and download the result. No account required.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It runs in your browser. A Windows installer is available separately if you prefer one.

What if the format I want isn't listed?

Every engine's capabilities are merged into a single graph, so unlisted pairs are chained automatically through intermediate formats along the least-lossy route.
