Photoshop with its PSD files is a standart de-facto. The game wants to read all that additional parameters, like pivot point, slices and so on. We decided to use separate layers to store this info. Then is came to a need of PSD-parser. We did’t found any real quality parsers, so we made it by ourselves in a week.

Here is an example of using this neat thing:

PSDParser parser = new PSDParser(new FileInputStream("image.psd")); 
PSDLayerAndMask layerAndMask = parser.getLayerAndMask();    
 
List layers = layerAndMask.getLayers(); 
List images = layerAndMask.getImageLayers(); 
int i = 0; 
for (PSDLayerStructure layer : layers) { 
    PSDLayerPixelData pixelData = images.get(i); 
    BufferedImage image = pixelData.getImage(); 
    if (image != null) 
	ImageIO.write(image, "png", new File(layer.getName() + ".png")); 
	    i++; 
}
