Photoshop DTP translation

Layer-Level Translation Inside Photoshop Files

Photoshop text layers are distinct from the pixel-based artwork around them, making them editable without touching image data. We work directly with text layers in PSD files, translating each layer and adjusting type size, tracking, and leading as needed to maintain the visual balance of the original composition.

Layer organization is preserved during translation. Grouped layers, adjustment layers, and smart objects remain in place. Clipping masks and layer effects applied to text layers are retained after translation. For files where text is merged into a flattened layer, we recreate the text elements as live layers to enable accurate translation and future editability.

Photoshop files rarely reach an official desk, but a scanned diploma or ID card sometimes arrives as one. When that document must go to USCIS, a consulate or a university, we can supply its text as a certified translation with a signed certificate of accuracy. Appointments at a consulate or an admissions office can be supported by our interpretation services.

What You Get

Key Features of PSD File Translation

Non-Destructive Layer Workflow

Translation is performed on text layers only. Pixel layers, adjustment layers, smart objects, and blend modes are completely untouched.

Text Layer Recreation

For flattened or merged text, we recreate live text layers using matching fonts, sizes, and effects so the translation is fully editable and visually accurate.

Digital Banner and Ad Support

Web banners, social media ads, and email header images with multiple text layers are translated with attention to character counts and display readability across devices.

Script and Language Support

Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, Thai, and CJK scripts are supported. Photoshop's Middle Eastern and World-Ready Composer settings are applied for correct text direction and shaping.

Questions About PSD Translation

Do I Need to Send the PSD File or Can I Send a JPEG or PNG?
For translation and DTP work, the native PSD file with live text layers is required. JPEG and PNG files are flattened rasters where text cannot be separated from the image. If you no longer have the PSD source, we can recreate the text elements from the flat image, but this requires additional design time.
Can You Handle Large PSD Files with Many Layers?
Yes. Complex PSD files with dozens or hundreds of layers are handled routinely in our DTP workflow. We work from a layer inventory, translating all identified text layers in a single pass for consistency.
How Are Smart Object Text Layers Handled?
Smart Objects that contain text can be opened and translated at the smart object level. We update the Smart Object content in the source PSD and verify that the result renders correctly before delivery.
