PSD (Adobe Photoshop Document)
.psd · image/vnd.adobe.photoshop · 1990 · Adobe
PSD is Photoshop's native working format — layers, masks, adjustment stacks, the lot. Nothing outside design tools opens it. EditItAll decodes the flattened composite of a PSD in your browser and converts it to PNG (lossless, with transparency) or JPEG/WebP for sharing. Layers are flattened in the process; keep the original PSD for editing.
