1Upload your PSD files and wait for the preview to appear.
2Drag out the region you want to keep, or lock the selection to 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9 and drag freely inside that ratio.
3Confirm the crop — the same rectangle is applied to every file you uploaded, which is how a set ends up genuinely consistent.
4Download the cropped PSD file, with everything outside the frame discarded.
Crop PSD FAQ
Does my source format change how a crop behaves?
+
It can. PSD is Photoshop native — layers, masks, adjustment layers and blend modes stay live and editable, which no flat image format can represent. That decides whether the crop is a pure pixel operation or whether the file has to be rebuilt around it.
Anything specific to PSD worth knowing before I crop?
+
Yes — layers, masks and adjustment layers are live objects rather than pixels, so a tool either preserves them or composites them down — there is no middle option. That is the sort of detail that only shows up after you have overwritten the original.
How does Crop PSD select and cut the area?
+
Concretely, the canvas bounds are changed and every layer is cropped with it, so the stack survives; layer content outside the new canvas is discarded rather than hidden, which is the difference between a crop and a mask. You drag the region you want directly on the preview, or type exact pixel coordinates if you already know them.
Can I crop to a fixed aspect ratio?
+
Yes. Lock the selection to 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 or any custom ratio and drag freely inside that constraint — which is how you get a set of images that all fit the same layout slot without measuring anything.
Do layers, masks and text stay editable?
+
Only if the output is itself a layered format. A flat image format cannot represent a live layer, an editable text object or an adjustment layer, so those are baked into the result. Keep your original PSD — the output is a deliverable, not a replacement master.
What can I upload to Crop PSD?
+
Photoshop PSD documents, including ones with layer groups, layer masks, adjustment layers and blend modes. You do not need a Photoshop licence to work with them here.
Is there a file size limit on Crop PSD?
+
Yes: free accounts process images up to 25 MB each, and layered documents reach that faster than anything else in the image family because every layer stores its own pixel data. A working PSD with dozens of layers can exceed that easily; flattening a copy in Photoshop first, or converting to TIFF, is the usual way around it.
Will Crop PSD lower the quality of my PSD files?
+
Pixel data in a PSD is stored losslessly, so nothing degrades. The real question is structural: whether the result keeps the layer stack or arrives as a finished composite. Anything that has to produce a flat image applies blend modes, masks and opacity exactly as Photoshop previews them.
Why would a modern-format site run Crop PSD?
+
WEBP.to is built around the modern replacement for both of the old defaults: one format that does lossy, lossless, alpha and animation, and reliably lands smaller than the JPEG or PNG it came from. People arrive here having decided the old defaults are costing them bandwidth, and that decision immediately raises the rest: what size, what quality, what happens to the transparency. Crop PSD is on the same upload and the same account so those questions get answered in one place.
Once Crop PSD has run, what is worth doing next?
+
The converter on this site moves images to and from WebP, PNG, JPG and AVIF, which is where you decide whether a smaller file is worth losing the older browsers. Doing it in that order matters: pick the pixels first and the container afterwards, because the container is the cheap decision and the pixels are the expensive one.
Do the sibling sites run something different?
+
The engines are identical — same libraries, same workers, same caps. What is different is the opinion attached, and the opinion here rests on a property of the format this site is named after: the same .webp extension can hold a lossy VP8 frame, a lossless one, or an animation, so the sensible processing path is decided per file rather than per extension.
What happens to my file, and is an account required?
+
No account, and nothing is retained: uploads are deleted from the workers shortly after the job finishes, and nothing is inspected, listed or indexed. Accounts exist for history and batch size only.
