What changes when you convert PSD to JPEG
- PSD can be transparent but JPEG cannot, so transparent areas are filled with solid white.
- JPEG uses lossy compression. We encode it at quality 95 out of 100, so the difference is normally invisible.
- Photos usually get smaller when saved as JPEG.
- All Photoshop layers are flattened into a single image.

Choose JPEG for photos, social media, email and web pages where small file size matters. Its main limit: it has no transparency, and saving a JPG again and again slowly lowers quality.
Stay with PSD if you need layered editing in Photoshop.
