2Choose the axis — horizontal gives you a mirror image, vertical an upside-down reflection.
3Apply the flip, then check any text, logos or numbers in the preview, because those mirror along with everything else.

Flip PSD FAQ
What is the difference between flipping and rotating?
+
A flip reverses the content across an axis and produces a mirror image; a rotation turns it without reversing anything. Text is the giveaway: it reads backwards after a flip and stays readable after a rotation.
Does the source format matter when flipping?
+
It does. PSD is Photoshop native — layers, masks, adjustment layers and blend modes stay live and editable, which no flat image format can represent. That is what decides whether the mirror can be done by rewriting the file or requires decoding it first.
When would I actually want to flip rather than rotate?
+
Correcting a scan or a webcam capture that came out mirrored, making a symmetrical pair from a single asset, or matching the direction a subject faces to a layout. If the content contains text, logos or numbers, check the result — those mirror too.
Can I flip several files at once?
+
Yes. The same axis is applied to every file in the batch, which is how you fix a whole folder of mirrored captures in one pass instead of one at a time.
Will Flip PSD lower the quality of my PSD files?
+
Pixel data in a PSD is stored losslessly, so nothing degrades. The real question is structural: whether the result keeps the layer stack or arrives as a finished composite. Anything that has to produce a flat image applies blend modes, masks and opacity exactly as Photoshop previews them.
Do layers, masks and text stay editable?
+
Only if the output is itself a layered format. A flat image format cannot represent a live layer, an editable text object or an adjustment layer, so those are baked into the result. Keep your original PSD — the output is a deliverable, not a replacement master.
Does Flip PSD cost anything?
+
No. Flip PSD is free and needs neither an account nor an Adobe subscription. Your PSD is deleted from the workers shortly after the job completes.
What can I upload to Flip PSD?
+
Photoshop PSD documents, including ones with layer groups, layer masks, adjustment layers and blend modes. You do not need a Photoshop licence to work with them here.
Why does a PDF site host Flip PSD?
+
PDF.to exists because PDF is where documents go to be shared and the worst place to keep them while they are still being worked on, so nearly every job here is about getting something into or out of that state deliberately. A document rarely arrives in the state it needs to leave in: it is too big, in the wrong order, locked, or a scan with no text in it. Flip PSD sits on the same upload and the same account as the conversions because those jobs turn up together.
What should I do with the result once Flip PSD is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves documents between PDF, Word, images, plain text and eBook formats in either direction, so whatever comes out of a tool here has somewhere to go next without a second upload. Running that after Flip PSD rather than before keeps the document structure intact through the step that is most likely to flatten it.
Is Flip PSD here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same document toolchain, the same workers, the same limits. What a PDF site adds is a view on when a file should stay a document and when it genuinely wants to become something else, which is the decision most tools quietly make for you. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: a PDF is an object graph, not a page image, so text stays selectable and vectors stay sharp no matter what happens to the raster content inside it.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account, and nothing is kept: uploads are deleted from the workers shortly after the job finishes, nothing is read and nothing is indexed. Free accounts exist for history and batch size, not for access.
