ShenaJ Posted November 9, 2024 Posted November 9, 2024 I'm currently trying to transition from photoshop, so I'm opening the PSD files in Photo to get them saved correctly. However, some of my layers are coming in way too large. I'm attaching images of what the file should look like, with the frame pieces correctly sized and how they are coming in Photo. I'm not sure how to fix this other than taking every layer of every file I have and resizing it. Is there a better way? Quote

Twolane Posted November 9, 2024 Posted November 9, 2024 On the same Settings / General / Text area, there's a "Import PSD text rather than bitmap", too.

ShenaJ Posted November 9, 2024 Author Posted November 9, 2024 @Twolane I have that checked as well. Quote

carl123 Posted November 9, 2024 Posted November 9, 2024 Hi This is what I see when I open the file. If you see differently, can you save that Affinity document and upload that to the forum?

ShenaJ Posted November 9, 2024 Author Posted November 9, 2024 Yes, it does, but those other wood layers should be the exact same size as the white one. Quote

carl123 Posted November 10, 2024 Posted November 10, 2024 Hi In Edit > Settings > General Switch OFF... "Import PSD smart objects where possible" and that should cure the problem with the wood frames ShenaJ and PaulEC 2 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.
