  1. Select Creative production on the Firefly website.

    The Remove background option will remove the background from all uploaded images.

  7. Select Continue.

  8. In the Final processing details dialog box, select the file types for the processed images. Choose from JPG, PNG, PSD, or any combination, and then select Process.

    The Final processing details dialog box is open and the JPG is selected as the file type.
    Select the file type for the processed images.

You'll get an email with a link to download all your images once the batch processing is complete.

PSD as output file type

When you choose PSD as the output file type, the processed file you'll receive will include the original masked layer along with each selected color or background in separate layers.

For example, if you add three background images and specify one solid color, the PSD file will contain five layers - the original masked object in the first layer with the original masked object, followed by the three background images, and finally, the solid color background each in their own layers.

Photoshop is open and there is a masked layer with multiple background images as layers under it.
