The wait is finally over: Customize your Save dialog file formats in Photoshop

You asked, we listened, and we're excited to share that one of the community's long-standing feature request is now available in Photoshop 27.10. 

For years, many of you have asked for more control over the file formats shown in the Save As and Save a Copy dialogs, including the ability to hide formats you don't use and create a cleaner, more streamlined saving experience. Today, we're happy to say: it's here! 

 

What's new? 

You can now customize the file formats displayed in the Save As and Save a Copy dialogs. 

Simply go to: Edit > Customize Save Dialog File Formats 

From there, you can: 

  • Enable or disable file formats 

  • Move formats you don't need to the Disabled File Formats column 

  • Restore the default list at any time 

Whether you're a photographer who primarily exports JPEGs and TIFFs, or a designer working mostly with PSDs and PNGs, you can now tailor the save experience to match your workflow. 

 

Why you'll love it 

No more scrolling through long lists of formats you never use. This update helps reduce clutter, speeds up saving, and puts your most important file formats exactly where you want them.

Thank you! 

This feature is a direct result of feedback from the Photoshop community. Thank you to everyone who shared ideas, voted on requests, and helped shape this experience. 

Give it a try and let us know what you think. Which file formats are at the top of your customized list? We'd love to hear how you're using this new capability in your workflow.

    Hey, this is stellar!  I love that we can also change the order.

    No more inadvertently saving as JPEG2000 because your mouse finger was quicker than your brain and/or your failing eyesight.

    What would be super cool would be the ability to save different states to custom workspaces, so we could get the full choice of formats if we ever need them.

    Has anyone managed to select multiple formats so you Clear them all at once?  I have tried Ctrl Shift and Alt, and dragging a window.  I can only select one format.  If I click on Clear it removes all but the top two.   

    I can’t find a way to temporarily restore one or more formats.  The only way is to drag it back to the left side and click Done so it is added to your preferred list.  I accept this pedantry as if you need to restore a format, then by definition that format needs to be on your ‘approved’ list.
