What You Can Do
Open PSD and PSB
Convert large PSB documents as well as regular PSD files, with no Adobe subscription.
Batch convert
Select up to 1,000 images and convert them together. There is no upload queue to wait on.
Choose your format
Export to PNG or JPG for most handoffs, or WebP, GIF, BMP or HEIC in a batch.
Handle transparency
When converting to JPG, which has no transparency, pick the background color that replaces it.
Find the file first
FileHop is a file browser, so you can see what you're converting alongside the rest of the project folder.
Keep client work private
Files are processed on your computer, so unreleased designs are never uploaded.
What It Doesn't Do
FileHop converts Photoshop files. It doesn't edit them.
- The output is one flattened image. Layers can't be edited, hidden or exported separately.
- There's no quality slider in the convert dialog.
- Some unusual PSD variants can only be read on Mac. Most standard files work the same on both platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I convert PSD to PNG without Photoshop?
Yes. FileHop converts PSD and PSB files to PNG or JPG with no Adobe software installed.
Will my layers be kept?
No. PNG and JPG are single-layer formats, and FileHop exports one flattened image. To work with layers, use Photoshop, Photopea or GIMP.
Does it support PSB files?
Yes. PSB, Photoshop's large document format, is handled the same way as PSD.
Can I batch convert PSD files?
Yes. Select up to 1,000 images and convert them at once.
Why can't I save a PSD as PNG in some tools?
Many apps can't read Photoshop's format, or can read only some of it. FileHop decodes the file and writes a standard image that opens anywhere.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Conversion runs on your computer and works offline.
Does it work on Windows?
Yes. Standard PSD files convert on both Mac and Windows. A few unusual variants can only be read on Mac.
Can I resize or compress the result?
Yes. FileHop's image tools can resize and compress the converted files, one at a time or in a batch.
