1Upload the PSD files you want to work on; the file opens in an editable view in your browser with nothing installed.
2Make your changes — crop, rotate, resize, draw and recolour on an image; rewrite the words and restyle headings, lists and tables in a document — and every one of them lands on a working copy, never on your upload.
3Preview the result at full size before you commit to it.
4Export back to PSD, or to a format that re-compresses nothing if you are still part-way through editing.
PSD Editor FAQ
Is my file uploaded, or does editing happen locally?
+
Editing happens in your browser; the file goes to our workers only for the operations that genuinely need server-side processing, and it is deleted shortly afterwards.
How does PSD Editor let me edit without installing anything?
+
Concretely, the layer stack is read and the composite is what you edit; export flattens it deliberately and once, rather than losing layers silently on open. The editing surface is the browser, so there is nothing to install and no licence to hold.
Anything specific to PSD in the editor?
+
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. Worth knowing before you export over your only copy.
Is anything lost when I export?
+
Only what the export format cannot represent. Choose a lossless output while you are still iterating and a compressed one when you are finished — exporting to a lossy format between edit sessions is what accumulates damage.
What can I upload to PSD Editor?
+
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 PSD Editor?
+
Yes: free accounts process images up to 5 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 PSD Editor 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.
Can I run PSD Editor on several PSD files at once?
+
Yes, though layered documents are the heaviest thing in the image family to decode, so a batch of large PSDs takes noticeably longer per file than the equivalent JPGs.
Why does a EPUB site host PSD Editor?
+
EPUB.to is built around the open eBook format — XHTML in a zip, reflowable by design, and readable on hardware nobody has thought about the layout for. A book is a zip full of markup, images and fonts, so almost every job people bring to an eBook site is really a job on one of those things. PSD Editor runs on the same upload and the same account as the conversions because that is where it is needed.
What should I do with the result once PSD Editor is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves books between EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF and DOCX, so a title ends up on whatever hardware is actually going to read it. Doing that after PSD Editor means the conversion is made from the version you settled on, not from the one you were still fixing.
Is PSD Editor here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same toolchain, the same workers, the same limits. What a EPUB site adds is a view on reflow: which of these operations a reflowable book genuinely supports, and which ones only make sense on the fixed-layout media inside it. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: the book is a zip of XHTML with a manifest, so the text costs almost nothing and every decision that matters is about the embedded images and font subsets.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account, and nothing is kept: uploads are deleted from the workers shortly after the job finishes, nothing is read and nothing is indexed. Free accounts exist for history and batch size, not for access.
