PSD Sample Files

PSD (.psd) is Adobe Photoshop's layered image format, storing channels, layer stacks, masks, guides, and print-oriented metadata. It remains a common interchange format for design teams and asset pipelines. Use sample .psd files to test layered-image ingestion, preview generation, metadata extraction, and compatibility across design and DAM tools.
