Why convert PSD to PNG?
Photoshop PSD files store proprietary layer trees, adjustment masks, and CMYK/RGB channel buffers that web browsers and office suites cannot render natively. Converting PSD to PNG extracts the composite image with full alpha-channel transparency intact, ready for web publishing, Slack previews, or slide decks.
Private by design: zero uploads
Design files often contain unreleased product UI, confidential brand assets, or client work under NDA. Local WebAssembly rendering guarantees your PSD never touches an external cloud bucket.
Frequently asked questions
Does PSD to PNG preserve transparent backgrounds?
Yes. If the PSD was saved with a transparent background layer, the exported PNG preserves the full 8-bit alpha channel.
How does trsf.it read PSD files without Photoshop installed?
PSD files written with 'Maximize Compatibility' enabled contain a merged composite channel alongside the individual layers. Our in-browser ImageMagick WebAssembly engine decodes that composite stream directly in RAM.
