This is a Paint.NET plugin for loading and saving Photoshop .PSD files.


Features of PSD Plugin of Paint.net

  • Layers
  • Masks (loading only)
  • RAW or RLE compressed files (loading only)
  • The following color modes are supported for loading an image
    • Gray scale
    • Indexed
    • 32 Bit-RGBA
    • CMYK (lossy conversation)
    • Multichannel CMY (lossy conversation)
    • Duotone (as gray scale)
    • Lab (lossy conversation)
    • For saving an image, only 32-Bit RGBA is supported

The plug-in is currently not very efficient in memory usage. Also be careful of PSD files with lots of small layers. In Photoshop, a layer can have different dimensions than the image. When loaded into Paint.NET, all layers get the same dimensions as the image, which can be very memory-intensive.

Note: Netframe version 3.5 higher needed for installation, supported in Window 7 , XP, Vista
