Frequently Asked Questions

Will my JPG image have layers after converting to PSD?

By default, the JPG will be converted to a single background layer in the PSD file. However, our converter also offers options to automatically generate additional layers based on image content or to create adjustment layers for better editability.

Will I gain quality when converting JPG to PSD?

Converting a JPG to PSD will not recover quality that was already lost during JPG compression. However, the PSD format will preserve the current quality without further degradation and provide a better starting point for editing and future conversions.

What Photoshop version will be compatible with the converted PSD?

Our converter creates PSD files that are compatible with Adobe Photoshop CS6 and newer versions. The files should also work with most third-party applications that support the PSD format.

Can I combine multiple JPGs into a single PSD with layers?

Yes, our converter allows you to upload multiple JPG files and combine them into a single PSD file with each image on a separate layer. This is perfect for creating collages or composite images.

Is there a file size limit for conversion?

Yes, you can upload files up to 100MB each. If you have larger files, you might need to resize them first. Note that the resulting PSD files will be significantly larger than the original JPGs due to the additional layer information and lossless storage.
