While its vector editing capabilities are excellent, many designers still need to export their designs as rasterized images for use in other tools, such as Photoshop. So, the question becomes: how can you open a Figma file in Photoshop?

The first step is to export your Figma design as a PNG file. To do this, select the item or frame you want to export in the Figma canvas, then click File > Export > Export from the top menu.

Now that you have your PNG file, you can open it in Photoshop. Simply launch Photoshop and click File > Open, then navigate to and select your PNG file. Once your file is open in Photoshop, you can begin editing it according to your needs.

Conclusion:

So there you have it! Now you know how to open a Figma file in Photoshop.

As you can see, the process is fairly simple and only requires a few steps. Give it a try next time you need to edit a Figma design in Photoshop.
