How to Convert PCD to PS

STEP 1

Click inside the file drop area to upload your PCD file or drag & drop it.

Locate your PCD file on your device—typically used for various purposes. Ensure the file is under 50MB to avoid upload issues. If the upload fails, check your internet connection or try compressing the file first.

STEP 2

Select PS as the output format and click the 'Convert' button.

Choose PS based on your needs—different formats suit different purposes, like JPEG for smaller file sizes. The conversion process typically takes a few seconds, depending on file size and server load.

STEP 3

Download the converted PS file instantly after conversion.

Once the conversion is complete, click the download link to save your PS file. You can then open it in software like a compatible viewer. If the file doesn’t download, ensure your browser allows pop-ups from RunConvert.

STEP 4

You can also send a link to the converted file via email. (Optional)

Enter an email address to receive a secure link to your converted file, which is useful for sharing with clients or accessing later. Links expire after 24 hours for security, and RunConvert ensures your data is protected during transmission.

What is PCD (Photo CD)?

PCD (Photo CD) is a digital image format developed by Kodak for storing high-quality photographic images on CD-ROMs. Each PCD file can store images at multiple resolutions, making it versatile for various applications.

The format was primarily used by professional photographers and in the publishing industry for storing high-quality photographic images before more modern formats became prevalent.

While less common today, PCD files remain important for archival purposes and accessing older professional photography collections.

How to open PCD files?

PCD files can be opened using specialized software such as Adobe Photoshop (with a plugin), IrfanView, or XnView.

For macOS users, GraphicConverter provides good support for opening and converting PCD files.

Some professional photo editing applications may require additional plugins to properly handle the multi-resolution aspects of PCD files.

What is PS (PostScript)?

PS (PostScript) is a page description language developed by Adobe that describes the appearance of text, graphics, and images on a printed page. It was revolutionary in desktop publishing and printing industries.

Unlike EPS, which is a single graphic, PS files can contain multiple pages and are primarily used for printing documents rather than for embedding graphics into other documents.

PostScript files contain programming instructions that describe precisely how text and graphics should appear on a page, enabling consistent reproduction across different printers and devices.

How to open PS?

PS files can be viewed and printed using software like Adobe Acrobat Distiller, Ghostscript with GSview, or PostScript viewers.

For macOS users, Preview can open many PostScript files, rendering them for on-screen viewing.

Some professional printing software packages also support direct import and processing of PostScript files.
