PSD to JPG Optimization FAQ

Will JPG actually be smaller than PSD?

Almost always when going from PNG / JPG / TIFF into WebP or AVIF: expect 25-50% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality, 60-90% smaller than PNG. Going the other way (WebP / AVIF back to JPG = PNG / JPG) typically grows the file because you are leaving a more modern codec for an older one — useful for compatibility, not size. JPG is the JPEG standard from 1992, served under the .jpg, .jpeg and .jfif extensions alike, and after three decades it is still the format most cameras and most websites use for photographs.

Does PSD to JPG preserve transparency / alpha?

Transparency survives when JPG supports alpha (PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, TIFF, SVG). Converting to JPG flattens the alpha channel onto white — if you need transparency on the modern web target WebP or AVIF instead of JPG.

Will the JPG version look identical to the PSD on a Retina display?

At quality 80+ on WebP / AVIF the difference is invisible to anyone but a trained eye even at 3x device pixel ratio. Photos compress slightly more visibly than line art; if your PSD is screenshots or UI mockups, push quality to 90 or use a lossless JPG.

Will EXIF camera metadata survive PSD to JPG?

Usually not. In most conversions, camera EXIF fields such as the camera model and GPS position are not carried into the JPG. There is no setting on this page to keep or remove metadata, so check the result with a metadata viewer if it matters.

Can I batch convert a folder of PSD files to JPG?

Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.

Are my PSD files private during JPG conversion?

Yes. Uploaded PSD files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted JPG are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy.

How do I serve the JPG with a PSD fallback on my site?

Use a `<picture>` element: `<picture><source srcset="image.JPG" type="image/JPG"><img src="image.PSD" alt=""></picture>`. Browsers that understand JPG fetch the smaller file; older browsers fall back to PSD. WebP is supported in 96%+ of installed browsers, AVIF in 90%+.

Why is my JPG file unexpectedly bigger / smaller than I expected?

A PSD that is already heavily compressed (low-quality JPG) often grows when re-encoded into a lossless JPG (PNG / TIFF). A high-bitrate lossless PSD (PNG / TIFF) often shrinks 60-90% when going to a lossy modern JPG (WebP / AVIF). Image content matters too — photos compress very differently from line art and screenshots.

PSD

PSD (Photoshop Document) is the native file format for Adobe Photoshop. PSD files store layered images, allowing for non-destructive editing and holding design elements. They are crucial for web-ready graphic design and photo manipulation.
