How to convert PSD to PNG
- Add your .PSD file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .PNG in a few seconds.
- Download your new .PNG file.
What to expect
- Layers are flattened - the PNG is a single merged image; keep the original
.psdif you need to make further edits. - Transparency is preserved - transparent areas in the PSD become a PNG alpha channel, which JPG cannot do.
- PNG is lossless but can be large - a detailed PSD may produce a multi-megabyte
.png; use JPG instead if file size matters more than transparency.
Frequently asked questions
Will the PNG look exactly like my PSD?
It matches the flattened composite of all visible layers. Hidden layers are excluded, and effects are baked in as rendered.
Does PNG keep the transparency from my PSD?
Yes - transparent areas are saved as a PNG alpha channel, so any transparent background is preserved in the output.
Can I batch-convert multiple PSD files to PNG?
Yes. GIMP supports batch export via Script-Fu, and XnView MP has a built-in batch converter under Tools > Batch Convert.
Why is the PNG so much larger than the PSD?
PNG uses lossless compression, so large or detailed images produce large files. If file size matters more than transparency, export to JPG instead.
