Learn about the source and target file formats to understand what happens during conversion.
Source Format
Photoshop Document
image/vnd.adobe.photoshopPSD (Photoshop Document) is the native file format for Adobe Photoshop, capable of storing layered images with full editing capabilities. It preserves layers, masks, adjustment layers, blend modes, text layers, vector paths, and smart objects in a single file. PSD supports color depths up to 32 bits per channel and multiple color spaces including RGB, CMYK, and Lab.
Advantages
- Preserves all Photoshop layers, masks, effects, and editing history
- Supports very high bit depths and multiple color spaces for professional work
- Widely supported for import by other design and image editing applications
Limitations
- Large file sizes, especially with many layers and high-resolution images
- Maximum file size of 2 GB (PSB format required for larger files)
- Full editing capability requires Adobe Photoshop or compatible software
Common Uses
- Professional photo editing and retouching with layered workflows
- Graphic design source files for print and digital media
- Design handoff files between designers and production teams
Target Format
JPEG Image
image/jpegJPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a widely used lossy compression format for digital photographs and web images. It achieves significant file size reduction by discarding visual information that is less perceptible to the human eye. JPEG supports 24-bit color and is the most common format for storing and sharing photographic images.
Advantages
- Excellent compression ratio for photographic images, resulting in small file sizes
- Universally supported across virtually all devices, browsers, and software
- Adjustable quality level allows fine control over the size-quality tradeoff
Limitations
- Lossy compression degrades image quality with each re-save
- Does not support transparency (alpha channel)
- Poor choice for images with sharp edges, text, or flat colors due to compression artifacts
Common Uses
- Digital photography and camera output
- Web images and social media sharing
- Email attachments and document embedding
