What changes when you convert JPEG to PSD
- JPEG has no transparency, so the picture looks the same; the extra transparency support in PSD simply stays unused.
- JPEG is lossy and PSD is not. The conversion cannot bring back detail that JPEG already discarded, so the file can grow without looking better.
- Expect a larger file with PSD; it trades size for quality or features.
