Quality 92%

JPEG exports are flattened onto white. Transparent areas are preserved in PNG and WebP where supported.

Exports a layered RGB, 8-bit PSD with raster layers, visibility, opacity and common blend modes using Photolux’s built-in writer. RGB 8-bit PSDs with Raw, RLE, ZIP or ZIP-with-prediction layer channels and merged composite data can open offline. Other color modes/depths and Photoshop-specific structures may need the optional advanced decoder. That fallback uses ag-psd (MIT), loaded on demand from a CDN. Image data stays in your browser. Text exports as pixels, and advanced masks, adjustment layers, groups and Photoshop-specific effects may be simplified.
