How to convert PSD to TGA
- Add your .PSD file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .TGA in a few seconds.
- Download your new .TGA file.
What to expect
- Layers, masks and editable text are flattened into a single raster image.
- Storage is uncompressed or lossless RLE, so there is no compression loss but files are large.
- A full alpha channel is preserved, keeping smooth transparency intact.
Frequently asked questions
Does PSD to TGA lose quality?
No. TGA is uncompressed or uses lossless RLE compression, so the flattened image keeps its pixels intact. Only the layered, editable structure of the PSD is given up.
Why convert a PSD to TGA?
TGA is widely used in game and video pipelines because it stores a clean alpha (transparency) channel, so converting suits artwork headed into those tools rather than general web sharing.
What opens a TGA file?
Free tools including GIMP, IrfanView and Paint.NET open TGA, and it is a standard input for many game engines and video applications.
Does TGA keep my transparency?
Yes. TGA supports a full alpha channel, so transparency from the PSD is preserved cleanly, which is one of the main reasons the format is used in production pipelines.
