Drop PSD files

The flattened picture Photoshop stored in each file is read and written as JPEG or PNG. Layers are not drawn.

You can paste a picture, too.

Drop Photoshop PSD or PSB files. The flattened picture Photoshop stores inside each one is read by this site's own PSD reader and written as JPEG or PNG — no Photoshop needed, nothing uploaded.

What is read: the stored composite

When Photoshop saves with “Maximize compatibility” (its default), it writes a flattened copy of the whole image next to the layers, so other programs can show the picture without understanding layers. This page reads that composite — RGB, greyscale, indexed, bitmap, duotone or CMYK, 8 or 16 bits per channel, raw or RLE-compressed — and converts it.

Layers, effects and adjustment layers are never redrawn here. If the file was saved without a composite, the page says so and tells you how to fix it, instead of handing back a blank picture.

JPEG or PNG

PNG keeps every pixel and the transparency of a PSD saved with a transparent background. JPEG is far smaller for photographs and is searched to the lowest quality that still measures visually identical (0.990 at 512 px); transparent areas need a background colour first. 16-bit files are reduced to 8 bits per channel and CMYK files are converted to RGB without a colour profile, which the page notes.

Questions about PSD to JPG

How do I open a PSD without Photoshop?
Drop it here. The flattened picture stored inside is shown and can be saved as JPG or PNG, all in your browser.
Why does my PSD say it has no flattened picture?
It was saved with “Maximize compatibility” turned off, so it contains only layers. Re-save it in Photoshop with that option on, or export a PNG from the app that made it.
Are layers and effects kept?
No. The page reads the composite Photoshop stored — exactly what the image looked like when it was saved — not the individual layers.
Does it read PSB (large document) files?
Yes, the composite of a PSB is read the same way, up to about 100 megapixels so the browser does not run out of memory.
Is my design uploaded?
No. The PSD is read in this tab and never leaves the device.
