toPSD

Opening .procreate files without an iPad is a real gap. Procreate's PSD export being iPad-only has bitten me before. Do clipping masks and layer opacity survive the conversion exactly, or are there blend modes that don't map 1:1 to Photoshop? Also nice that it runs fully in the browser instead of uploading files.

Thanks for all the questions! The common ones: almost every blend mode maps one to one. Add becomes Photoshop's Linear Dodge (Add), and Procreate's Add (Glow) and Glow Dodge, which Photoshop doesn't have, come out as Add and Color Dodge, so glows can shift a little. Clipping masks, layer masks and groups come through as real Photoshop ones. DPI and the colour profile are kept; output is RGB, no CMYK yet. Big canvases are read layer by layer, so the limit is your device's memory, and anything over Photoshop's 2 GB or 30,000 px limit is saved as a PSB. Animation Assist files I haven't tested yet. Send me one that breaks and I'll fix it.

Had to work with some all assets library, and this was very helpfull, another good this is that when it in the browser only it faster to upload heavy pdf files.

Hi Fazier! I built toPSD after seeing the same question again and again: someone has a .procreate file and no iPad, or needs the layers in Photoshop. Procreate's own PSD export only works on the iPad, so it can't help a client or print shop that just received the file. toPSD reads the file in your browser and writes a layered PSD, TIFF or Krita file with layer names, groups, masks and blend modes. Nothing is uploaded. Along the way I added free tools for the other file headaches artists run into: a PSD viewer, DPI checker, KRA and CLIP to PSD, print sizes for wall art and more. If a file comes out wrong for you, tell me what broke and I'll fix it.

The in-browser conversion with no upload is a strong point for artists worried about client files. How faithfully do Procreate blend modes and clipping masks carry over into the layered PSD when opened in Photoshop? I'd also be curious whether very large canvases with many layers run into browser memory limits.

Keeping layers intact makes this useful for moving artwork from Procreate to Photoshop. Are files processed entirely on-device, and are layer groups and blend modes preserved?

Great product. keep going!

Running everything in the browser so the .procreate file never gets uploaded is a nice privacy touch, and keeping masks and blend modes intact in the PSD export is what makes it actually usable for handoff.

toPSD solves a practical problem by making the transition from design to a usable PSD file simpler and more accessible. I appreciate tools that eliminate unnecessary steps from creative workflows, especially when they save time without compromising flexibility. For designers and developers, a smoother conversion process means less time dealing with file formats and more time focusing on the actual work. Simple, focused tools like this can make a surprisingly meaningful difference in everyday productivity.

Running the conversion in the browser so artwork never leaves the machine is a real selling point for artists wary of uploading client files. A note on the largest file size or layer count it handles would be useful for people with big canvases.

Must be thoughtful, specific, and helpful.

Opening Procreate files without needing an iPad and keeping all layer structures, blend modes, and clipping masks intact is a lifesaver for illustrators collaborating with desktop designers. Doing the conversion client-side in the browser is also great for privacy.

Nice idea. The browser-only part is what sold me, no uploading client artwork anywere. Does it keep blend modes and masks ok on really big canvases or does it get slow?

Print shops are a smart audience for this. Does the layered PSD/TIFF export keep the canvas DPI and colour profile from the .procreate file, or does everything come out as sRGB? A CMYK option would make it a one-step handoff for printing. Also curious how Animation Assist frames are handled - one layer per frame?

does the blend mode mapping hold up for stuff like color dodge and add? those usually get weird going procreate to photoshop

Running everything in the browser so the artwork never leaves your machine is a really thoughtful touch, especially for client files. I also like that layer names, groups and masks carry across into the PSD. Have you found any blend modes that are trickier to match exactly in Photoshop?

The freemium positioning is clear, and the 65-vote signal suggests people actually try the conversion flow. One thing I'd love to see on the landing page is a before/after PSD layer preview so first-time visitors understand the output quality in under 5 seconds.

Running everything in the browser so Procreate files never get uploaded is a strong privacy point for artists. Does the layered PSD export keep Procreate's blend modes accurate for things like Multiply and Add?

Running the conversion fully in the browser so the artwork never leaves the device is a strong privacy angle for artists with unreleased work. Does it keep Procreate blend modes and masks accurate on very large canvases, or do you hit memory limits in the browser tab?

Keeping layers intact on a Procreate-to-PSD conversion is the part most converters get wrong, so doing it in-browser without an upload to a desktop app is a real convenience. Does it preserve blend modes and clipping masks as well, or just the layer stack? That’s usually where the handoff to Photoshop breaks.

I also build a browser-only image tool, so I like seeing this approach for Procreate files. How do you handle very large canvases – do you decode the layer tiles in a Web Worker so the tab doesn't freeze? Moving the heavy work off the main thread made a big difference for us. A 'works offline once loaded' note could also reassure artists that nothing is uploaded.

The browser-based conversion is a really useful feature, especially for artists who need to work with PSD files without an iPad. Preserving layers and blend modes makes the workflow much easier. Great work on building this!

This looks like a useful tool for improving content before publishing. I'd be interested to know how it helps users improve readability and optimize their articles for search engines.

Being able to convert a .procreate file into a layered PSD without an iPad sounds incredibly useful, especially for clients and print shops. Keeping the processing in the browser is a big plus for unpublished artwork, too. How closely does the export preserve more complex masks and blend modes?

Doing the conversion fully in the browser so artwork never leaves the machine is a strong selling point for artists sharing client files. Preserving masks and blend modes is the hard part, so I'm curious how well it handles Procreate's more exotic blend modes and very large canvases. Would a side-by-side preview of the original versus the converted PSD before paying for the layered export help build trust?

Nice that layer names, groups, masks and blend modes survive the Procreate-to-PSD conversion. How does it handle Procreate-specific features like clipping masks or Multiply-style blend modes that Photoshop interprets slightly differently?
