Can Canva export a PSD file?

No. Canva downloads PNG, JPG, PDF, SVG (Pro) and video, but not PSD. Download your design as PNG, then convert it here to get a layered PSD.

How do I get a PSD file from a Canva design?

Download the design as PNG at the largest size, upload it here, and download the layered PSD the AI builds from it.

Do I need to share my Canva link?

No. You only upload the downloaded image. This tool does not connect to your Canva account.

Will the text stay editable?

Each text block lands on its own layer, so you can move, hide or replace it. It is an image layer, not live type, so retype it in Photoshop if you need to change the words.

How many free credits do I get, and how many layers can I separate for free?

Every new account gets 20 free credits on sign-up — enough for one separation of up to 4 layers. For deeper runs (up to 16 layers), full resolution or marked regions, buy a one-time credit pack whenever you need it.

Convert Canva to PSD with Layers

Canva only downloads flat PNG, JPG or PDF. Download your design as PNG, drop it here, and AI separates the text, elements and background into layers you can edit in Photoshop.
