This is the best review of file formats I have ever saw! Thank you Aaron and Phlearn people! Love your channel and seriously thinking of subscribing your trainings.
I don't know why you did not include PDF format, but I have been using it recently and it is indeed flawless. It will save layers and every exact thing in the project. It can then be opened easily on any operating system and it will include all layers if opened again in photoshop and then you can continue working on or modifying the project. Thank you though.
I really like the way you explain each and every points... And this was the main reason I follow your channel because you explain each and every points which I need to know thank you thank you so much 🙏🙏
I am reciting with you the steps and being thankful that all of this and more I already learned from Phlearn. Thanks Aaron for another informative video.
Thank you so much for this very informative (and easily understandable) tutorial. I'm an "old dog" that just learned some new tricks {important data} concerning file formats. First, I have always saved with .psd's, and will continue to do so, but am often annoyed/stifled by the file-size limit of 2 gb's. I shoot with a 50 mpix Hasselblad, so a 2+ gig file is not that uncommon for me. I did not even realize I had the option of a .psb. And...I learned some new things about "Quality" settings for web processing. I've always gone with a larger file, usually @ 100% when possible, not realizing that others may have a longer wait for them to open on their computers or devices. Henceforth, I will start dialing the Quality settings back. And finally, I plan to become a bit more creative where possible utilizing the .png format for some motion in some of my web postings. Wow!!! Thank you again for this.
Hey Aaron! Fantastic vid, as we've come to expect from you ;) Couple of questions: - Is rotation not registered in the timeline? Say, can you use a Smart Object for example, so you won't have to create multiple layers for 1 movement? - Speaking of Smart Objects, why do they automatically become PSBs and not PSDs? - Is the 2mb for a webpage relative to the technology available? For example, when 6G becomes the norm, I'd image that 2mb size grows too. Thanks in advance!
Thank you Aaron and Phlearn! Another Great Tutorial! What would you recommend for professional photography exports, for portfolio websites or big prints?
GIF pixels can be fully transparent or opaque. If you try to save with transparent background, some grey shadows will not show. If you know the color of background it'll be used on, set the same matte color while saving (it has to be uniform). If you need it pixel perfect, export in a real video format (mp4, mov).
Hi Aaron, I find that when you use "Otpimized" to save for the web (jpeg) it kinda modify the overal colors of the images. Wanna try and tell me what you think about it ? Thanks for the awesome content as usual
🌵👍Useful content, capably presented. Q. Will smart object layers be saved as such in TIFF and PSB? (Dancing bananas would have avoided the syntax issue over cactus😁.)
thanks for the great video!! may i ask, what if i have a non-transparent image, are there any decisions to make before choosing png or jpg? Like, are there any instances I would choose png over jpg? :-) thank you!
The TIFF file format, to give it the proper acronym stands for Tag Image File Format and was proposed by my marketing folks (Datacopy, the first digital camera and desktop scanners) in about 1982-1983 when we were going nuts trying to support all of the programs to which our camera and desktop scanners could feed images. We were swamped with the number of programs that were becoming available and for which we had to export a specific ( and different) file format. Desktop publishing, image manipulation, etc were just coming out and the desktop market was expanding rapidly.. The basic format is a plain old image file with provisions for the different software companies to add a Tag to the file to fulfill their requirements. Of course, the traditional graphic arts and print industry hated this but they were going to spend years developing a universal file format. TIFF became an industry standard in a very short time.
It's GIF (hard G) not GIF (Jiff) 😜 Btw, since TIFF is such a versatile file format, should I start saving everything in TIFF instead of PSD? Is there any benefit whatsoever with PSD compared to TIFF?
Cacti not Cactuses. Thankfully your Photoshop videos are so helpful grammar is irrelevant. And in not one to talk... literally... I speech good English two. 😂.

11:07 the file format explanation starts. The tutorial before that is good too, though.
Thanks Nace and thanks for time cut out Simon

I have subscribed and purchased a number of videos. You won't regret it!

Thank you for explaining it so well! And yes, I will have a great rest of my life
Lucky me it is Wednesday morning as I watched this video.
BTW it was a GR8 video informative as always
Thank you Aaron and Phlearn! Another Great Tutorial! What would you recommend for professional photography exports, for portfolio websites or big prints?
It's tuesday for me right now... Guess i'll come back and watch this video tomorrow
Great video as always! This is very helpful
Thank you very much Aaron, I was looking for this. You're amazing!
Thnx a lot for this video.
Great clear video Aaron, cleared up a few issues I had, but what about an animated logo with a transparent background? Is that doable too?
GIF pixels can be fully transparent or opaque. If you try to save with transparent background, some grey shadows will not show. If you know the color of background it'll be used on, set the same matte color while saving (it has to be uniform).
If you need it pixel perfect, export in a real video format (mp4, mov).
Thanks Rabindra
Thanks for the video... from mexico gracias
forward and forwarded

Nice. Thanks
Awesome! Great video!
Can you make a video about PDF? I always struggle with that format because they became gigantic! Pleaseeee Aaron, teach us
Thank You Aaron!
such a great , useful video...i wish i cud donate 1000 pound to u but i can't afford sorry..THANKS MAN U RE ONE OF THE BEST PS USER EVER.
Great video - thank you. What is the difference between TIFF and RAW? - cheers - Peter
LOL Aaron. No controversy at all. Simply Google Giffy firelighters and see how you go.
Jiffy starts with a “J” shock horror :).
you are awsome.
🌵👍Useful content, capably presented. Q. Will smart object layers be saved as such in TIFF and PSB? (Dancing bananas would have avoided the syntax issue over cactus😁.)
What I learnt too: Cactuses really is the plural of Cactus. Cacti isn't wrong though. Anyway, thanks Aaron
Actually there are other programs like affinity photo that can open PSD files, not just photoshop.
Huge thumbs up
Thanks!!
Is there any issue with using the PNG format on the web for non-transparent images?
Bravo !
Nice.
You have forgotten the PDF format. You can also save layers in this format.
? Hi, Aaron how we can save setting up for (Saving Files for the Web) then load it
thanks for the great video!! may i ask, what if i have a non-transparent image, are there any decisions to make before choosing png or jpg? Like, are there any instances I would choose png over jpg? :-) thank you!
thank you so much!! :-))
Aaron! We want your beard back!!

Fun fact: TIFF files aren't actually layered, according to the standard. Photoshop saves them as .psd files.
Funfact, it really works to upload a psd on instagram. (on iPhone) :D
I have a pic that I blurred now which files should i choose to save
why didnt you choose interlaced?
How do you open files independently in PS and not stuck to each others ?
but if all cactus are the same why don't you duplicate them instead. and do not have to crop all of them?
is it possible to recover a PSD file that has just been deleted after Photoshop has crashed
What about .tga?
300 dpi export shows as 72 dpi in Photoshop. Please help me
can we save a illustrator .ai file to .tiff?
Cacti. :)
'cacti' is actually the latin plural, whereas 'cactuses' is the accepted English version. Fun fact, 'cactus' is already an acceptable plural form!
I've heard both terms used in English. @@BunnyOnPlanetQ
You can tell I am a native Arizonan by this comment but, it is "Cacti" not cactuses. :P
It's GIF (hard G) not GIF (Jiff) 😜
Btw, since TIFF is such a versatile file format, should I start saving everything in TIFF instead of PSD? Is there any benefit whatsoever with PSD compared to TIFF?
Goes either way.
The original creator of .gif calls it "jiff". But I personally admit it sounds much better as "giff", so I'm still going with that
Took me 20 minutes of the video to realize it doesnt say You're looking sharpi.
You like a RDJ.
Learn and Burn PS
i just want to kiss you. love the video content
Cacti not Cactuses. Thankfully your Photoshop videos are so helpful grammar is irrelevant. And in not one to talk... literally... I speech good English two. 😂.
Cacti*
Not cactuses...

You can still use cactuses, cacti is more commonly used though.
