Saving a copy of the original At this point when saving, you can choose to manually remove the word "copy" and therefore over-write your original file. However, this will flatten the file and eliminate any layers. If you are absolutely sure you do not wish to do any additional work on the image, you may wish to do this. This will re-compress the image as a JPEG and replace your original image with your new version of the image. We recommend, however, that you give serious consideration to this decision. If there is any chance you may wish to do additional work on the image or that you may need to go back to the original image for any reason, we suggest you either leave the word "copy" in the file name or use another name addendum such as "ADJ" to preserve your original. Preserve all PhotoKit layers using the PSD format As an alternative, you may decide to keep your image with all the PhotoKit Color layers intact. This will allow you to come back to the image and make additional changes without having to worry about problems you may have with JPEG artifacts from repeated saves while preserving your layers for later editing. Photoshop’s native file format is .PSD (Photoshop). With a PSD file, anything you create in a Photoshop file can be saved including image layers, adjustment layers and type layers. The PSD file format includes a level of compression using a completely lossless scheme so you can be assured that you'll never suffer recompression artifacts.
Preserve all PhotoKit layers using the TIFF format While many applications can open PSD files, there is another format that has even wider acceptance called TIFF. It should be noted however that while Photoshop can indeed save layered files in the TIFF file format, layered TIFFs can only be read by Photoshop at this time. TIFF files, therefore do not have the same interchangeability that PSDs have. However, TIFFs do offer additional lossless compression schemes that can make the saved file size smaller. A TIFF can use LZW, ZIP and even JPEG compression. Note that the JPEG compression inside a TIFF is still lossy. If you select ZIP compression, this is the most efficient type of TIFF compression.
