**Works with Photoshop CC 2015+** Smaller PSD offers a variety of helpful scripts and functions to reduce your PSDs filesize. It processes all layers, so you don't have to select anything by hand. The panel can reduce/delete invisible layers and pixels, flatten or rasterize layers, apply masks, replace placeholder images with frames and more. **Please note:** No script can "magically" reduce any PSDs filesize. The size can be reduces if your PSD has... - ...images which are only placeholders (- can be replaced by color or frame), - ...images which can be reduces in sharpness / detail, - ...layers which are obscured by other layers (hidden pixels), - ...layers with (pixel) masks, - ...layers with clipping masks (clipping layer must be larger than its base), - ...empty layers, - ...Smart Objects, - ...layers which stand out of the document bounds, - ...hidden or invisible layers (visibility, opacity, fillOpacity), - ...layer styles / effects which are hidden, - ...groups which can be merged, - or your PSD doesnt need maximal compatibility (no thumbnail / preview in other software) Most methods are lossy, which means the reduced data can't be restored at a later point (unlike zipping). If your PSD will be handed to a client, you should consider how editable the PSD should remain, and which parts can be deleted.
