Convert PSD to VIPS

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 VIPS (Virtual Image Processing System) file format, developed by the libvips library, is designed for high-performance image processing with low memory usage. It supports arbitrary metadata and is optimized for command-line operations. Although not widely supported by other programs, it serves as an efficient intermediate format for tasks like image inversion and gamma correction. The format includes a 64-byte header with basic fields such as image width and a set of band-interleaved scanlines for the image data.
