Will Xtreme ever do PSD format?

I am just curious about this. I know it will do AI format but will it ever do PSD format.

Thanks

It just could happen. I predict we will have a PSD filter some time soon.

A pretty safe prediction given the current uinstable build of Xara LX supports PSD :-)

Are you hinting that we will be able to read / access the individual layers in a PSD file?

I just think that support for Photoshop PSD format is one of the more important functions missing from Xara Xtreme.

And as Alex points out, it is in the current LX version so I would expect to see it soon in Xtreme.

I contacted Xara support directly with the same question.

They told me this:

Hi

Yes. The release of xtreme included a great deal of alterations that
simplified the process of creating filters.

I recommend keeping an eye on the xara site over the coming months for
additional news on this

Many thanks

This sounds pretty promising to me.

This program would be a BEST Seller (Not that it already isn't) when the PSD export comes out. IMHO.
