PSD to JPG
Convert a Photoshop .psd to a flattened JPEG in this browser tab. The PSD is not uploaded.
JPG is a lossy format. Use it for previews, moodboards, email, or web images where a smaller file matters more than perfect edges. For screenshots, UI, or any image that needs a sharp transparency, use PSD to PNG instead. JPEG cannot store a transparent background; transparent areas are composited on white (you can add a color option in the tool later).
When JPG is the better export
- The document is a photograph or a textured illustration.
- You need to attach a preview that must stay under an email or form size limit.
- You are batching many comps and disk size matters (paid batch export).
When you need lossless pixels or transparency, go back to PNG.
Same parsing limits as PNG
Flattening still uses the stored composite when it exists. Adjustment layers, some smart objects, and missing Maximize Compatibility have the same caveats described on PSD to PNG. 16-bit sources are reduced to 8-bit JPEG. Color shifts are more visible in CMYK-to-RGB conversions; do not use this as a print-proof.
Layer-by-layer exports are PNG-only in the first version, via Extract layers from a PSD.
