Edit a Photoshop file

Open a PSD with its layers, change them and write on it, with no Photoshop.

Drop a file here, or choose one: it opens on this page.

Minda Files opens Photoshop PSD files in your browser with their layers: show, hide, rename, reorder, move and scale them, set their opacity, blend mode and adjustments, change a text layer’s words and write or draw on top. Then download a PSD that keeps the layers, or a PNG, JPG or PDF. Nothing is uploaded, and it is free.

How to edit a PSD file online

  1. Drop the .psd or .psb file on the page, or press Choose a file.
  2. Pick a layer in Layers to show or hide it, rename or move it, or set its opacity, blend mode and adjustments.
  3. Write, draw, add shapes or a picture on top with the mark-up tools.
  4. Download it as a Photoshop file with its layers, or as a PNG, JPEG or PDF.
  • Opens with its layers a .psd in 8-bit RGB or grayscale with at least one layer, up to 100 MB within your plan’s file size: show, hide, rename, reorder, copy and delete layers, set opacity and blend mode, retype a text layer, add a picture as a new layer, move and scale a layer, and set brightness, contrast, saturation, hue or black and white as adjustment layers.
  • Opens as one picture a .psb, a CMYK, indexed, duotone or 16-bit file, or a larger one, up to 40 megapixels: its flattened picture, to crop, turn, resize, mark up and download.
  • Downloads a .psd with the layers as Layers shows them, the adjustments as adjustment layers Photoshop keeps live and your marks as a layer named Minda marks on top; or a PNG, JPEG or PDF of the picture.
  • Does not open a Lab, Multichannel or 32-bit file, or one saved without Maximize Compatibility, which holds no flattened picture: the message says how to save one that opens.
