Convert PSD to PNG

Turn the image saved inside a Photoshop file into a PNG on your own device.

Convert a PSD to PNG 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.

Drop PSD files hereor click to choose files. Batches welcome.

    PNG is the usual choice when a PSD holds a logo, an icon, a cut-out or a UI mock-up: it is lossless and it can hold transparency. This page turns the picture saved inside a PSD into a PNG, with no Photoshop on your machine.

    It reads the flattened image Photoshop stores in every PSD it saves with Maximize Compatibility on, which is the default. The layers are not rebuilt; the PNG is the picture as it looked at the last save, with every visible layer, blend mode and effect merged into one image.

    If the document has no Background layer, so the artwork sits on transparent pixels, the saved image carries that transparency and the PNG keeps it. If there is a solid Background layer, the PNG is opaque, because the background is part of the picture.

    The PSD is read and the PNG is written inside this tab. Nothing is uploaded, and the decoder, ag-psd, is bundled with the site and only loaded when you drop a PSD.

    How it works

    1. Drop your PSD files onto the page, or tap to pick them. Batches are fine.
    2. There are no quality settings: PNG is lossless, so the output matches the decoded image exactly.
    3. Download each PNG, 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 PNG without Photoshop?

    Yes. Drop the .psd file here and download the PNG. It runs in your browser, with nothing to install and no account.

    Is the transparent background kept?

    Yes, when the saved image has transparency, which Photoshop writes when the document has no Background layer. A PSD with a solid background layer gives an opaque PNG. Transparent pixels are written as they are, with no background colour added.

    Can I get one PNG per layer?

    No. This page converts the single flattened image in the file and does not read the layers. In Photoshop, use File → Export → Layers to Files to save each layer as its own PNG.

    It fails or the PNG is blank. What do I do?

    Three things cause it. The file was saved without its flattened image: in Photoshop, set Preferences → File Handling → Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility to Always, then save the file again. It is a PSB (large document) file, which is not supported. Or it is too large for the device’s memory, which mostly affects phones; try a computer.

    Is my PSD uploaded?

    No. The file is read and the PNG written in this tab, and no part of your file is sent anywhere.
