Why convert PSD to TGA?
PSD is Adobe Photoshop's native format, storing a flattened composite plus editable layers, masks, and effects. TGA (Targa) is a simple lossless raster format with an optional alpha channel, long used in games and video production.
Both PSD and TGA support transparency, so transparent regions are carried across cleanly. TGA is lossless, so quality is preserved perfectly; expect the file to be larger than a compressed PSD.
Pixohub converts PSD to TGA entirely inside your browser using the HTML canvas API and an in-browser PSD decoder, so your images are never uploaded to a server. That makes conversion instant, completely private, and free — turn as many PSD files into TGA as you like. Reach for TGA whenever you need game textures, sprites, and video pipelines that need lossless alpha.
PSD vs TGA: what to expect
PSD is best for layered editing in Photoshop and design hand-off, while TGA shines for game textures, sprites, and video pipelines that need lossless alpha. Keep your original PSD if you may later need the source file, and export a TGA copy for compatibility and editing.
