What does the HTML output look like?

A single self-contained .html file. The PSD canvas becomes a containing inline SVG with all images embedded as base64 data URIs. No external CSS, no external images, no JavaScript needed. You can email it, attach it, host it anywhere — it just renders.

Why HTML and not a flat image?

Because HTML keeps layout and selectable text. A flat PNG/JPG export throws away every advantage of having layers in the first place. The HTML this tool produces is easier to inspect, copy from, and host than a flattened bitmap, while keeping the visual layout exact.

Is the text selectable?

Yes — text layers are rendered as inside SVG, which keeps them selectable and copyable in modern browsers. That's the difference vs. tools that flatten everything to a bitmap inside HTML.

Can I edit the PSD before downloading the HTML?

Yes — that's the default flow. As soon as the PSD parses, it opens in the embedded Polotno editor. Tweak text, swap colors, move layers, replace images, then click "Download as HTML" in the editor toolbar.

Will the HTML render in every browser?

Yes for every modern browser — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, mobile Safari all render inline SVG with embedded data-URI images natively. No JavaScript runtime required.

Is this responsive HTML I can use as a webpage template?

Not directly — the output is a layout-preserving SVG snapshot of the PSD canvas, fixed-width to match the source. It's the right format for sharing a high-fidelity preview, archiving a design as a single file, or pasting into an email signature. For a true responsive HTML/CSS rebuild of a PSD layout, you'll want a dedicated PSD-to-Webflow / PSD-to-React workflow.

PSD to HTML converter — single self-contained file

Quick answer

Drop a PSD, get a single self-contained HTML file with the design as inline SVG. Edit in the editor first if you want.

Formula: PSD → Polotno JSON → inline SVG inside HTML (browser-only, no Photoshop)

Runs entirely in your browser. Your file never leaves your device.

Ship a PSD's contents as a webpage without losing the layout. Drop the file above and get a single self-contained HTML file with the design rendered as inline SVG — no external assets, no plugin, no Photoshop, no server.

Single file, no external assets

The output is one .html file. Every image is embedded as a data: URL, every text run is in inline SVG, the styling is inline. You can email it, attach it to a ticket, host it on any static site, drop it in S3 — without managing a separate asset folder.

Layout-preserving, text still selectable

The PSD canvas renders as inline SVG inside a <section> wrapper, so positions, fonts, and colors match the source. Text layers come out as <text> inside SVG, which keeps them selectable and copyable in modern browsers — useful when the recipient needs to copy a line out of the PSD without running it through an OCR pass.

Edit during conversion

As soon as the PSD parses, it loads into the live Polotno editor. Edit text, change colors, move layers, drop in new images — then click Download as HTML in the editor toolbar. Useful when a PSD is 90% of what you want to share as a single-file webpage and one section needs reworking.

The same conversion in code

import { psdToJson } from "@polotno/psd-import";
import { createStore } from "polotno/model/store";

const buffer = await file.arrayBuffer();
const json = await psdToJson({ psd: buffer });

const store = createStore({ key: "YOUR_KEY" });
store.loadJSON(json);
await store.saveAsHTML({ fileName: "design.html" });
