What is the easiest way to move PixelLab designs into Photoshop for further editing?

I've been working with PixelLab for creating simple graphics and text based designs, and I'm trying to find a better workflow for taking those designs into Photoshop for more advanced editing.

I'm particularly interested in keeping the image quality as good as possible when moving from PixelLab to Photoshop. I'm also wondering whether it's better to export as PNG, use a higher resolution canvas, or use another format before opening the design in Photoshop.

I've been working with PixelLab resources and versions as well, and came across PixellabHub while looking for resources related to the app:

 

For anyone who uses both PixelLab and Photoshop, what workflow would you recommend for getting the best quality and flexibility when moving a design from one to the other?

No idea what PixelLab is, but if you output to a non-destructive format like PNG you should be fine. Do not change reesolution or pixel size. It's important to maintain the original pixel structure.

 

Note that if this involves text, you should not use a pixel application at all! That should be done in a vector application like InDesign, Illustrator or similar.
