The first method is for anyone who has access to the Adobe Photoshop software. First, open your Photoshop program. Under ‘file’, select ‘save as’. Use the dropdown menu ‘format’ to change the type to PDF. Click ‘save’. This will give you a PDF in the most direct way.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next two steps are for users who don’t have access to Photoshop. The first way is by using a browser-based converter. This method is great for users with a fast internet connection and only a few files to convert. It only requires an upload and download of a relatively small file, so this process is perfect for anyone worried about hard drive space. I recommend \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zamzar.com\u002Fconvert\u002Fpsd-to-pdf\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zamzar\u003C\u002Fa> for its quick speeds and simple interface.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, if you want a system that operates right from your desktop, there are some installable programs available. These are ideal for anyone with a lot of hard drive space and limited to no internet access. These programs let users convert numerous files at once.

Why would you need to convert the PSD to PDF? For one, the PSD is designed to be edited extensively. Its main purpose is to open into Photoshop and undergo a lot of different edits by multiple users.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PDF, on the other hand, is typically in its final form and ready to be shared. Therefore, if you have a PSD that requires no more editing, you might convert it to a PDF document in order to make sure it doesn’t get altered further. This is especially true when sharing the file with another user or uploading it to a website. The PDF format prevents the recipient from changing your file.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultimately, the PDF is a much more professional document. It’s capable of acting as a contract, resume or other business file type. For all of the unique benefits of the PSD, it just can’t handle some of the things PDF can. When this is the case, make sure you know how to make a conversion.\u003C\u002Fp>",3,{"url":37,"url_md":38,"alt":39,"height":40,"width":41},"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.canto.com\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F01\u002F19192829\u002Fconvert-psd-to-pdf-3.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.canto.com\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F01\u002F19192829\u002Fconvert-psd-to-pdf-3-450x318.jpg","An arrowed representation of conversion.",566,800,[43],{"id":44,"slug":44,"title":45,"path":46},"photo-management","Photo management","\u002Fpost-category\u002Fphoto-management\u002F",[48,55,62],{"featuredImage":49,"postId":50,"slug":51,"title":52,"description":53,"path":54},"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.canto.com\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F01\u002F19192820\u002Fconvert-cr2-to-tiff-3-338x450.jpg",39375,"convert-cr2-to-tiff","How to convert the CR2 image file to a TIFF","The CR2 image file often needs to be edited and shared in different formats.
