Convert your PSD file to SKP

to

Use our free and fast online tool to convert your PSD (Adobe Photoshop) image or logo into 3D SKP (SketchUp) mesh/model files suitable for printing with a 3D printer or for loading into your favorite 3D editing package.

How to Convert your PSD to SKP Online?

Here are three simple steps to create an SKP file from a PSD file.

Upload a PSD

Click the "Upload a File" button and select PSD to upload. The maximum file size is 100MB.

Select your Options

Set the dimensions and other options, and click the "Convert to SKP" button to convert your PSD to SKP.

Download your SKP

Image to SKP Frequently Asked Questions

What does this tool do?

Our tool converts image (bitmap) data into 3D geometry, which is then saved to the common SKP file format.

What files does it support?

The PSD to SKP tool can convert the most common image file formats, such as PNG, JPG or any one of our supported image formats. The output is provided in SKP format, which can be used in most 3D graphics applications.

How does the tool interpret the image pixel data?

3D geometry is created based on the luminosity of each pixel in the source image. For example, using the default tool settings, a black pixel represents a 3D pixel height of 0mm, and a white pixel represents a 3D pixel height of 10mm. Colors in between these will be converted to a 3D pixel in this range.

What does the "Invert Output" option do?

This option reverses the black-to-white range conversion, so with this option set, a black pixel will be rendered as a 3D pixel of 10mm in height, and a white pixel will be rendered as 0mm.

How do I control the Model detail?

The "Detail" option allows you to control the resolution of the created SKP file. Low detail will generate the model quickly and result in a smaller file. The High option will take longer to generate and can result in very large download files.

What does the "Enable Smoothing" option do?

With this option, the PSD to SKP converter will attempt to remove or smooth out any spikes in the resulting SKP 3D model. Spikes are usually caused by highly contrasting adjacent pixels in the source PSD file.

What is the maximum PSD resolution I can upload?

The PSD you upload can be any size; however, our tool will resize your image to a maximum of 800x800 pixels for normal users, and for premium subscription holders, this is increased to a maximum of 1200x1200 pixels.

Other Frequently Asked Questions

How can I convert my PSD file to SKP?

First click the "Upload..." button, select your PSD file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the PSD to SKP conversion has completed, you can download your SKP file straight away.

How long does it take to convert my PSD to SKP?

We aim to process all PSD to SKP conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.

How accurate is the PSD to SKP conversion?

We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.

Is it safe to convert my PSD to SKP on ImageToStl.com?

Yes, of course! We do not store the PSD file you submit to us. The resulting SKP file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.

Can I convert my PSD to SKP on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our PSD to SKP tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.

What if I am using an Ad Blocker, will that affect things?

Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our PSD conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.

Description

The PSD file format is the native raster image format used by Adobe's Photoshop image application. The format stores raster image data and is the most popular image format for computer graphics around today. Originally available on Macintosh computers, Photoshop was ported to Windows in 1993.

The format has evolved over the years and, compared to similar formats, stores not just raster image data but additional information such as layers, masks, alpha channels, clipping paths, and more. PSD files have a limit of 30,000 pixels in height and width and an overall file size limit of 2GB.

Description

The SKP 3D file format is the native file format used by SketchUp. The SketchUp application, which was released back in 2000 and is still going strong today, allows users to create detailed 3D graphics models.

SketchUp is popular amongst architectural designers, game developers, and other professionals and hobbyist users. The SKP format can be opened with the SketchUp application.

SKP Notes

Any model converted to the SKP format will be stored in a triangulated mesh format.
