As of version 1.3.24 graphicsmagick doesn't support the PSD format anymore. What alternatives are there to convert a psd file into a tiff or jpg or at least extract the contained preview image? I need to do this with Java, I could call an external process via CLI, of course (that's what I do with gm all the time).

  • @ElliottFrisch Okay, the format *is* pretty bad, as it has survived a series of evolutions, rather than a major rewrite. But it all fairness, Adobe *has* made a decent attempt at [documenting the PSD format](https://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/photoshop/fileformatashtml/). I have made a Java ImageIO plugin based on the information in there. :-) – Harald K Jan 08 '19 at 16:24
