How to extract a psb smart object from a layer?

Post by pdubya »

Hi,

I have a batch of PSD files where each layer contains a PSB smart object. Is there anyway to extract the PSB smart object from each layer and save it as a PSB file?

Thanks.

I doubt that IM can do that. It has only a rudimentary capability with regard to PSD files. But I will let one of the developers correct me, if I am wrong.

Do you know if it supports Smart Objects in any way? I can't find anything in the documentation.

I do not believe so. But I am not a developer. My experience is it only can extract basic layers.

Reading smart objects is not supported.
.NET + ImageMagick = Magick.NET https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET, @MagickNET, Donate
