Convert PSD to HEIF

The PSD file extension stands for Photoshop Document, which is the native file format for Adobe Photoshop. It is primarily used to save graphics and images, preserving layers, masks, transparency, and other editing features, allowing for non-destructive editing. Introduced in 1988 with Photoshop's first release, PSD files have since become a standard in the graphic design and digital imaging industry due to their flexibility and support for various color modes and channels, including RGB, CMYK, and grayscale.

The High Efficiency Image File Format (HEIF) is a modern image format designed for superior compression efficiency and enhanced image quality. Originating in 2015, HEIF was developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and utilizes the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) codec to store image data. It supports a wide range of multimedia applications, including single images, image sequences, auxiliary image items, and non-image items, making it highly versatile for professional and consumer usage in various devices and platforms. Its ability to maintain high image quality while reducing file size significantly improves storage efficiency and accelerates data transmission.
