Q Regarding compatibility when exporting artwork data in PSD format

A When exporting in PSD file format, due to the following specifications and limitations, full compatibility cannot be guaranteed and the resulting layer compositing may differ. Please note the following:

  • “Add” layers are converted to the ”Linear Dodge” blend mode.
  • “Invert” layers are converted to the”Invert Color” adjustment layer.
  • “Invert” folders are converted to folders with the “Normal” blend mode.
  • ”Selection” layers are excluded from export.
  • ”Vector layers” and ”Screen Tones” are rasterized.
  • When the background is white, a white background layer is added.
  • When the background is transparent, fully transparent areas are replaced with the background color (white‑transparent or black‑transparent).
  • Photoshop does not support folder clipping. When a PSD file containing folder clipping is opened in Photoshop, the clipping will be removed.
  • If the Blending Mode is set to "Screen Tone", the conversion will be processed as follows:
    • Layers are simply rasterized, and no additional processing is performed to reproduce the Screen Tone settings.
    • Folders are converted without applying the Screen Tone settings and are treated as if Screen Tone had not been set.
