File formats
Note: If a supported file format does not appear in the appropriate dialog box or submenu, you may need to install the
format’s plug-in module.
Choosing a file format
Graphics file formats differ in the way they represent image data (as pixels or vectors), and support different
compression techniques and Photoshop features. To preserve all Photoshop features (layers, effects, masks, and so on),
save a copy of your image in Photoshop format (PSD).
Like most file formats, PSD supports files up to 2 GB in size. For files larger than 2 GB, save in Large Document Format
(PSB), Photoshop Raw (flattened image only), TIFF (up to 4 GB), or DICOM format.
