Can I convert PNG to PSD for free?

Yes. Choose Free quick PSD at the top of this page and add your PNG files. Each one becomes a Photoshop document with the picture on a single layer named after the file. It runs in your browser: no sign-in, no credits, nothing uploaded, and it keeps working offline once the converter has loaded. Convert up to 50 files at a time and download them one by one or as a ZIP.

Does PNG to PSD preserve transparency?

Transparent details are preserved where possible. Some rebuilt background or estimated regions may be generated as normal raster layers, so always review the preview before production use.

Can I control what AI separates in PNG to PSD conversion?

Separation Notes help prioritize objects, labels, shadows, logos, text-like graphics, or background areas, and layer count guides how detailed the split should be.

What kind of PNG images get the best results?

Clear images with distinct subjects, readable edges, and limited overlap work best. Very small files, heavy blur, dense text, or complex occlusion may need manual cleanup after export.

Does the free converter keep PNG transparency and DPI?

Yes. Transparent areas stay transparent on a normal layer, not a locked Background, and the PSD keeps the PNG's full pixel size. Keep the DPI stored in the PNG (72 if it has none) or set 72, 150 or 300 DPI for print. You can also add a solid color layer underneath.

What is the difference between a quick PSD and AI layers?

A quick PSD puts your whole PNG on one layer; it doesn't separate anything. AI layers use credits and split the picture into separate editable layers, such as the subject, objects, text and a rebuilt background. If you only need a valid PSD file, the quick PSD is enough.

Can I combine several PNG files into one PSD?

Yes. Pick Combine into one PSD and each picture becomes its own named layer in a single document. The canvas grows to fit every picture, or you set a custom size, and pictures are centered or placed at the top left. The top of the list becomes the top layer, and you can reorder the list before combining.

What is the largest PNG I can convert for free?

Each picture can be up to 200 MB and 50 megapixels, with no side longer than 30,000 pixels, the PSD maximum. A combined PSD holds up to 100 megapixels of pictures on a canvas of up to 50 megapixels. Large pictures need a lot of memory, so close other tabs if a conversion fails.

PNG to PSD: Convert PNG Files into Editable Layers

Upload a PNG and generate a Photoshop-ready PSD with editable layers for products, transparent elements, text-like graphics, shadows, and backgrounds.

Preserve transparent PNG edges when possibleEditable raster layers in a real PSDGenerate online, refine in Photoshop

Upload Image

0/1

Upload Image

JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 24MB. PNG files work especially well for transparent graphics and product assets.

Sexual or explicit content isn't allowed. Images and results that contain it are blocked automatically.

Layer Count

Auto

Up to 10 layers

Choose how many editable visual groups AI should create first. Auto stays within 10 layers — more layers take longer to separate. You can split mixed layers again after reviewing the result.

Separation Notes (optional)

Sample:

8 credits per layer.

Beach photo · 5 layers

Real result: 4 people and an AI-reconstructed background, each on its own layer.

Layered PNG to PSD output

Real PNG Layers, Not Just a PSD Container

Image2Layer reads the visible pixels in a PNG and rebuilds useful areas as separate raster layers, so product shapes, transparent edges, shadows, and background pieces are easier to inspect or adjust in a layered PSD.

Place background areas on their own editable PSD layer.
Keep transparent PNG details clean when the pixels support it.
Split subjects, graphics, shadows, and object regions into useful raster layers.

Control your PNG to PSD split

Guide the PNG to PSD Layer Split

A short separation note gives the PNG to PSD workflow context: which object matters, which text-like area should stay separate, and how detailed the final PSD layer stack should be.

Name the regions you care about, such as product, logo, shadow, foreground prop, or background.
Start with Auto, or increase the layer count for images with more editable parts.
Check the preview and layer names before downloading the PSD file.

FAQ

PNG to PSD FAQ

Yes. Image2Layer creates a PSD-oriented raster layer stack. Depending on the image, products, labels, shadows, transparent-edge details, and rebuilt background areas can appear as separate layers for review and edits.
