PSD to PNG
Convert an Adobe Photoshop PSD file to a flattened PNG image. Upload a .psd, and its composited layers are converted to a PNG you can download — entirely in your browser, no upload to a server required.
Input
A .psd (or .psb) file with its layers flattened, saved with "Maximize Compatibility" on. Processed locally in your browser — the file is never uploaded.
Output
Upload a PSD file to see its flattened image.
The converted file's raw data URL, in case you need it directly.

A Photoshop .psd file isn't an image you can drop into a webpage or a document — it's a project file, made of layers, masks, and adjustment data that only Photoshop (or a handful of other design tools) can open. This tool reads a PSD's flattened composite — what the file looks like with every layer merged together, exactly as it appears in Photoshop — and converts it to a standard PNG you can view, share, or embed anywhere.
How to use it
- Upload a
.psd(or.psb) file. - The flattened image appears instantly as a PNG.
- Copy the data URL or download the converted file.
Why PNG?
PNG keeps full transparency (an alpha channel), so if your PSD has transparent areas — a logo cut out on its own layer, an icon without a background — they stay transparent in the output. It's also lossless: no recompression artifacts, pixel-perfect to the flattened composite. If you don't need transparency and want a smaller file instead, use PSD to JPG.
Is this private?
Yes. The PSD is decoded and converted entirely in your browser — the file is never uploaded to a server. (The public API and MCP versions of this tool run the identical conversion in our own request handler, only when you call them directly.)
Why is my output blank or missing layers?
This tool reads the PSD's saved composite image, not its individual layers — the same flattened preview Photoshop shows in its layers thumbnail. If a file was saved without "Maximize Compatibility" enabled (Edit → Preferences → File Handling in Photoshop), it may not include that composite at all, and conversion will fail with a message asking you to re-save with that option on. Photoshop has it on by default, so this only affects files saved with non-default settings.
What color modes are supported?
RGB, Grayscale, Bitmap, and Indexed color PSDs all convert correctly. CMYK, Lab, and Multichannel files aren't currently supported — convert the document to RGB color mode in Photoshop (Image → Mode → RGB Color) first.
Does this work with layered PSDs, or only flat images?
Layered files work fine — the tool always flattens to the file's saved composite, so you don't need to merge layers in Photoshop first.
