PSD to JPG Converter

It turns Adobe Photoshop documents into standard JPG files. Photoshop stores a flattened composite of your layers inside each PSD, and the converter reads that composite and saves it as a JPG at the quality you choose. The result can be viewed, shared or printed without Photoshop on the recipient's device, and it is far smaller than the layered original. For the composite to exist, the PSD must have been saved with Photoshop's Maximize Compatibility option turned on.

Click the area labeled Drop PSD files here or click to upload, or drag files onto it, and select several .psd files at once. You can add more the same way, and Clear All empties the list. Set the JPG quality, then click Convert to JPG. The files are processed one after another, and each row shows Done with its own Download JPG button, so you save each JPG individually rather than as one archive. Files that do not end in .psd are ignored.

PSD is Photoshop's working format. It keeps layers and editing data, so files are large, and many phones, browsers, social platforms and portfolio sites cannot display them. A JPG is flattened and compressed, and it opens in virtually every browser, operating system and image viewer. Converting gives you a lightweight copy for client galleries, email attachments and online publishing, while the PSD stays your editable master and the smaller JPG saves space wherever you share it.

Use it at the end of post-production. Once your retouching, compositing or design work in Photoshop is finished, save the layered PSD as your master archive, then convert it to create the JPG you deliver or publish. That way the non-destructive layered file stays available for future revisions, while the lightweight JPG goes to clients, vendors or your online audience. If you later change the PSD, save it again and convert a fresh JPG.

Color profiles are the usual cause. The converter copies the document's RGB values into a standard 8-bit JPG without converting them or embedding a color profile, and browsers and viewers treat an untagged JPG as sRGB. A PSD edited in Adobe RGB or ProPhoto RGB will therefore look duller or shifted. Convert the document to sRGB in Photoshop with Convert to Profile and save it before converting. Also remember the converter shows the composite Photoshop last saved, so save the PSD after your final edits.

Both are common export formats with different jobs. TIFF can be stored without lossy compression, keeps maximum image quality and can even hold Photoshop layers, which suits high-end printing and passing files between editing programs, but the files are very large. JPG uses lossy compression to make files much smaller by discarding some detail, and it does not support layers. Use TIFF for archiving and professional printing, and JPG for digital sharing, the web and client proofing.

Yes. The JPG Quality slider runs from 1 to 100 and starts at 90. Higher values compress less, producing larger files that keep fine detail and avoid artifacts, which suits client galleries and prints. Lower values compress more, giving small files for email or web thumbnails at the cost of visible blockiness. The setting applies to every file in the list when you click Convert to JPG. Many photographers settle between 80 and 90 as a balance of detail and file size.

No. The JPG format has no transparency channel, so the converter fills every transparent area of the composite with white before saving. Semi-transparent edges and shadows are blended onto white as well. If you are making watermarks, logos or cut-out subjects that need a transparent background to sit over other images or web pages, save the PSD as a PNG instead, which keeps an alpha channel.

Each PSD is read entirely in your browser, so the cause is usually the file itself. The converter needs the flattened composite Photoshop stores when Maximize Compatibility is turned on, and a PSD saved without it shows Error. CMYK documents are not supported, so convert them to RGB in Photoshop first. A damaged file will not convert either, and .psb large documents are not accepted. Very large documents with many layers can exhaust your browser's memory, so close other heavy tabs or flatten the file first.

Yes. The conversion runs entirely in your browser on your own device, so your PSDs and the resulting JPGs never leave it. That makes the tool suitable for sensitive client images and unreleased commercial work. Your original PSD is only read, never changed, and each JPG is a new file that you save with its Download JPG button.
