Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 11:38 pm

As a designer, you’re always on the lookout for new tools to help you create better designs faster. Figma is a great design tool that has gained a lot of popularity in recent years. But can you import Photoshop files into Figma?

The short answer is yes, you can import Photoshop files into Figma. However, there are some limitations to consider.

First of all, only PSD files can be imported – not other Photoshop file formats like TIFF or EPS. Secondly, only layers and layer groups will be imported – not other Photoshop features like adjustment layers or layer masks.

That being said, importing Photoshop files into Figma can be a great way to quickly get started on a new project. If you have an existing design in Photoshop that you want to use as a starting point, importing it into Figma can save you a lot of time.

PRO TIP: There is no direct way to import a Photoshop file into Figma. However, you can export your Photoshop project as a .png or .jpg file and then import it into Figma.

To import a Photoshop file into Figma, simply open the File menu and select “Import from..”. Then choose “Photoshop File” from the list of options. You’ll then be able to select the PSD file you want to import.

Once the file is imported, you’ll be able to edit it just like any other Figma file. You can even use Figma’s powerful vector editing tools to make changes to your design that would be difficult or impossible to do in Photoshop.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, yes – you can import Photoshop files into Figma with some limitations to consider. Importing PSDs can save you time when starting a new project in Figma.
