Convert PSD to JPG

Turn a Photoshop file’s saved image into a JPG on your own device, no Photoshop needed.

Convert a PSD to JPG in your browser, no Photoshop needed. Reads the composite saved in the file and flattens it. It is free, needs no account and adds no watermark, and your files are not uploaded: everything runs in your browser on your device. The size limit is your device’s memory, and phones hold less; give the page a short while after one visit to save itself for offline use, and then it works offline.

    A PSD is a Photoshop working file: the layers, masks and adjustments are kept so the design can be edited again. Almost nothing else opens it. Email previews, upload forms, chat apps and most image viewers want a JPG. This page turns the finished picture inside the PSD into a JPG without installing Photoshop.

    It reads the flattened image that Photoshop stores inside every PSD it saves with Maximize Compatibility on, which is Photoshop’s default. It does not rebuild the layers, so what you get is the picture as it looked when the file was last saved: blend modes, effects and adjustment layers are already baked in. Where the picture has see-through areas, they are filled with the background colour you pick, white by default, because JPG cannot be transparent.

    The PSD is read and the JPG is written inside this tab. Design files are often unreleased work, so nothing is uploaded; the decoder, ag-psd, is bundled with the site and only loaded when you drop a PSD.

    The JPG carries the pixel values stored in the file. The PSD’s own colour profile is not written into it, and colours are not converted. If the PSD used a wide-gamut profile such as Adobe RGB, the JPG can look different from Photoshop’s preview; converting the document to sRGB in Photoshop (Edit → Convert to Profile) before saving avoids that.

    How it works

    1. Drop your PSD files onto the page, or tap to pick them. Batches are fine.
    2. Adjust the quality slider if you want a smaller file, or leave it at 90.
    3. Download each JPG, or all of them as one zip.

    In your browser, not on a server

    Stayput first reads the opening bytes of each file, where every image format writes its signature, so it knows what the file really is whatever it is called. Your browser decodes JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, AVIF and SVG itself; TIFF goes through UTIF.js, HEIC through the libheif WebAssembly decoder, and JPEG XL (or AVIF, in a browser without native support) through the Squoosh decoders, all served from this site and cached. The browser re-encodes JPG, PNG and WebP; PDF, ICO, GIF, BMP and TIFF files are written by small encoders in the page. Nothing here needs a server.

    Compared with upload-based tools: Online converters upload your image, convert it on their machine, keep it for hours and cap you at a few files a day. This does the same conversion on your device, for as many files as your device’s memory can hold, with no upload to wait for.

    Verify it yourself. Give the page a short while after one visit to save itself for offline use, then turn off Wi-Fi or switch to airplane mode and run the tool again. Or open your browser's developer tools (F12, or Cmd-Option-I on a Mac), pick the Network tab, and watch it while you convert. The panel above does the same count for you.

    Questions

    Can I convert a PSD to JPG without Photoshop?

    Yes. Drop the .psd file on this page and download the JPG. Nothing needs installing and no account is needed: the file is read by your browser tab.

    My PSD fails or the JPG comes out blank. Why?

    The file was most likely saved without its flattened image. This page can only read the composite Photoshop stores when Maximize Compatibility is on. In Photoshop, open Preferences → File Handling → Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility and set it to Always, then open the file and save it again. A file saved by an app that skips the composite needs the same re-save in Photoshop or a tool that renders layers.

    What happens to the layers?

    They are flattened. The JPG is the saved composite, a single picture with every visible layer, effect and blend already merged. A JPG has no layers, so separate ones cannot come out of it.

    Is my PSD uploaded?

    No. The file is read and the JPG written in this tab, and the page sends no part of your file anywhere.

    Does it work with PSB files, and how big can a PSD be?

    PSB (Photoshop’s large-document format) is not supported. Regular PSDs are read entirely in memory, so a very large one, such as a poster at several hundred megapixels, can run out of memory, most often on a phone or tablet. There is no fixed size limit; if it fails, try a computer.

    Which JPG quality is used, and is the colour profile kept?

    The quality slider starts at 90 and you can change it. The PSD’s colour profile is not kept: the JPG holds the file’s RGB values unchanged, and the browser may label it as standard sRGB. PSDs in CMYK, Lab or other non-RGB colour modes are not read; in Photoshop choose Image → Mode → RGB Color first.
