Converting DDS to PSD decodes the source image and writes a PSD output. Use this route when PSD is a better fit for compatibility, file size, editing, or delivery.

Choose conversion targets based on PSD compression, transparency, animation, metadata, and compatibility requirements.
Known metadata support: texture headers, mipmaps, cube maps, arrays.
