I have a multitude of old edits with the ext .pspimage. I have googled and tried the 2 most likely options I found with no success, is there any way to open them in CS6. I would like to convert them and save them as .psd. There must be a way surely.

He is using Windows 7

The .PSPIMAGE file extension identifies Corel Paint Shop Pro image files. .PSPIMAGE related formats has .psp and  .tub.

Open PSPIMAGE on Windows:

  • Corel (Jasc) Paint Shop Pro 8 or later

I guess he wants to resave or export it with the layers intact?

I had the same problem. You can open them in Corel Paintshop Pro X6 and save as a .psd instead. Works like a charm for After Effects with all layers intact. Just make sure you select the right options when you open up the project in AE (Open: "Import Kind" Select *Composition* "Layer options" Select *Editable Layer Styles*).

Usually that means the files came from a corel program, most likely Paintshop Pro.

Do you know for sure or can guess what program was used for the edits?

What operating system are you using photoshop cs6 on?

You could also post an example file here via something like dropbox, to see if anyone else can open the file.

Download Irfanview www.irfanview.com  It's free and can read this format. From there you can convert to tif or any format Photoshop will take.

Thanks I thought Yea this might do it, but I am specifically looking for something to keep the layers.

I have converted multiple files, and I know some of them were flattened as I did not know better then, but I know some of them contained layers.

Am I doing something wrong. Or is it not possible to convert layers.
