How do I import PNG files into Adobe Photoshop?

Adding PNGs to your Photoshop files is fortunately super easy! No need to "place" or  use the File > Open menu.

Here how you can quickly add a PNG file to your Adobe Photoshop document :

Locate the PNG file that you'd like to import on your computer. Making sure you have your Photoshop file window open in the background and in view, drag and drop the PNG file onto the Photoshop document.

This will automatically create a new layer for the imported PNG.

3. To resize the PNG, use the Transform menu option found under Edit to Scale your PNG, make sure to hold down shift as you scale to keep the proportions of the image.

Move into position using the Move tool.

Once you’re happy with size and placement, you can then re-order the PNG layer if need be.
