Your files never leave your device

This tool runs entirely inside your browser. The file is never uploaded to any server: it is read, processed and downloaded on your own device. When you close or reload the page, it is gone from memory.

Why convert PSD to JPG

A PSD file is heavy and only really useful inside Photoshop. A photographer may deliver retouched pictures as PSD, a designer may send a flyer or a social media post for approval, and a print shop may share a proof that way. If you're the one approving or using the result, you need something lighter and universal.

JPG is that format. It opens in every phone, chat app, email client and photo viewer, and it's accepted by online forms, marketplaces and social networks. For photo-based designs, it also gives much smaller files than PNG, which makes sending and uploading easier.

Requirement: “Maximize Compatibility”

ConvertirDocs doesn't rebuild Photoshop layers. It reads the combined image that Photoshop stores inside the PSD when the file is saved with “Maximize Compatibility” turned on. That combined image is the full picture, exactly as it looked when it was last saved, and that's what becomes your JPG.

If the PSD was saved with the option off, there's no combined image to read. You'll see a clear message rather than a broken or blank picture. Ask the person who made the file to save it again with “Maximize Compatibility”, or simply to export a JPG.

Quality, size and transparency

You can choose the JPG quality. High quality keeps fine detail and small text crisp, and is the right choice for approval copies and prints. Medium or low quality produces lighter files for previews in a chat or for websites. If a portal has a limit in KB, send the result to “Compress image” and type the target size.

JPG doesn't support transparency, so transparent parts of the design become white. If the PSD is a logo or a cut-out that must keep a transparent background, convert to PNG with PSD to PNG instead.

Typical uses

Sending a design to a client or a manager who doesn't use Photoshop. Posting a finished graphic or a retouched photo on social media. Uploading a product image to an online store. Keeping quick previews of a folder of PSD files so you can find the right one without opening each in Photoshop. Putting a mockup into a slide or a document.

In all these cases the conversion happens in your browser, so your files are never uploaded or stored. There's no account and no limit, and the JPG carries no EXIF data.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert a PSD without Photoshop?

Yes. It works in your browser on a computer or phone, with no Adobe account.

Why can't my PSD be read?

It was saved without “Maximize Compatibility”, so it has no combined image. Ask for it to be saved again with that option, or for a JPG export.

Are hidden layers included?

The JPG shows the combined image stored in the file, which is the design as it looked when saved. Layers aren't rebuilt or changed.

What happens to transparent areas?

They become white, because JPG doesn't support transparency. Use PSD to PNG to avoid that.

Can I convert many PSD files at once?

Yes. Select them all and download the results in a ZIP. Large PSD files need memory, so on a phone convert a few at a time.

Are my files uploaded?

No. They're converted in your browser and never leave your device.
