The current version of Photoshop is required to read PSD files with 16 bits per color channel versus 8-bit in its older versions. It used to be impossible to convert such files with ImageConverter Plus. But now our software is able to read and convert 16-bit PDS files, thus helping your images represent additional color range and giving them more potential for realism. The higher the bit color you use – the more realistic the images will appear and the more control of the final conversion outcome you will have.
