PSD
Adobe design file
PSD is a file format for Adobe Photoshop documents, preserving layers, masks, and editing history that flattened image formats discard.
Designers share PSDs when collaboration requires access to individual elements: Send me the PSD so I can adjust the text layer.
PSD also abbreviates various organizations and conditions, including post-traumatic stress disorder (more commonly PTSD) and prevention of significant deterioration in environmental law.
