Convert PSD to PNG

Open a Photoshop file without Photoshop. Turn a .psd into a PNG with transparency kept, free, in your browser.

Drop files here or click to browse. PSD accepted, batches welcome

Drop a .psd above, get a PNG of the finished design back, transparency intact.

Photoshop files do not open in ordinary software, and Photoshop is a subscription. A designer sends a logo, an agency sends artwork, and the .psd sits there unreadable in your downloads.

PNG is the right answer when the design has transparency. Logos, badges, cut-out product shots and anything meant to sit on a coloured background need the empty areas to stay empty. JPG fills them with white; PNG keeps them.

What comes out is the flattened composite - the finished picture Photoshop stores alongside the layers so other software has something to show. That is the design as it was last saved. The layers themselves stay in the .psd.

Lossless, so nothing degrades. PNG stores every pixel exactly, which suits artwork with hard edges, flat colour and text far better than JPG does.

Size: the PNG lands far smaller than the .psd, which stores each layer separately and can run to hundreds of megabytes.

For a photograph rather than a design, PSD to JPG goes considerably smaller and the difference is hard to see.

Client artwork never leaves your machine.

Frequently asked questions

Does the transparency survive?

Yes. PNG carries an alpha channel, and anything transparent in the design stays transparent, and the artwork drops onto any background cleanly.

Do I need Photoshop?

No. Photoshop saves a flattened preview inside the file for other software to display, and that is what this reads.

Can I edit the layers afterwards?

Not from the PNG. It is one flat picture. Layers stay in the .psd and need Photoshop, Photopea or Affinity Photo to open.

PNG or JPG for a Photoshop file?

PNG for logos, badges, artwork with transparency and anything with text or hard edges. PSD to JPG for photographic designs where the file size matters more.

It says the flattened preview won't read. What now?

The file was saved with Maximize Compatibility off. Save a copy from Photoshop with the setting on and there will be a composite to convert.
