What is a PSPIMAGE file?

A PSPIMAGE file is a graphic saved by Corel PaintShop Pro, a program for editing images and digital photos. It may contain raster and vector graphics and supports layers, transparency, filters, and other image effects. Since PSPIMAGE files are the native files saved by PaintShop Pro, they often store touched-up digital photos and artwork.
