Delete, per nomination. I see it mentioned at Image file format#Other raster formats, but not every format listed there has its own article, so I think nothing would be lost by deleting it. I would also support draftifying the article if someone could show that it is the subject of instruction at schools or third-party manuals, per WP:NSOFT.

I'm uncertain about this article. PSD is "a" layered image file format.[1][2], but I don't think it's "this" layered image file format. This one appears to be mentioned on p. 235 of this expensive book, but I can only see the index entry, not the page itself. Overall, I think that a blank and redirect to Image file format#Other raster formats is probably the right outcome. WhatamIdoing (talk) 21:25, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Google Books turned up the same source, and won't let me access page 235. Other file formats are discussed in moderate detail in surrounding pages, which may give a sense of what sort of info we'd be likely to get out of the book. Probably still never going to be more than a sub-stub, so I'd endorse a merge of anything that can be sourced, and a redirect per WhatamIdoing -- Avocado (talk) 23:05, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
