Place the extracted file (WebPShop.plugin) into the Applications / Adobe Photoshop / Plug-ins / folder; Restart or run Photoshop and try opening and saving the file in the WebP format; Done. The WebPShop.plugin file cannot be opened on Mac OS 10.15 and above because the developer is not verified. So, bypass in the following ways.
WebPShop, the plug-in for opening and saving WebP images directly from AdobePhotoshop, is now available on GitHub under an Apache 2.0 license.
Adobe Photoshop Webp Plugin
- Method 2 - Run.Webp image Via AdobePhotoShop Plugin. First download Plugin for Adobe PhotoShop from link Below. Click here to Download Plugin. After downloading Unzip. Now choose your version 32-bit or 64-bit. Copy the main plugin file. Paste the plugin file in Installation directory of Adobe Photoshop. By default the directory for latest.
- You will need to restart Adobe Photoshop for the plugin to be loaded, which is done upon initiation. Now you can open WebP files in Photoshop. Note that if the WebP file contains animation (multiple images), it will only display the first image and not the subsequent ones. To edit animated WebP files you will need a different solution.
Photoshop Open Webp
Windows installation steps

On macOS 10.15+, the prompt 'WebPShop.plugin cannot be opened because thedeveloper cannot be verified' can be bypassed by running the following inTerminal (Finder > Applications > Utilities):
Encoding options
Compression settings can be adjusted during the 'Save' command.
The quality goes from lossy 0 (the image is degraded to fit in fewer bytes) to lossless 100 (pixels stay exactly the same). Usually the compressed size increases with quality but for some images (e.g. screen captures, plain colors..), the lossless algorithm produce lighter files.
The compression effort controls the encoding speed. Slower increases the visual quality and/or decreases the file size.
The preview feature will show the compressed image and its final size. If the picture is too tall or too wide, a moveable zoomed-in area will appear. Warning: for big images and/or heavy compression effort, thegraphical user interface may be slow/unresponsive when this is enabled.
For animations (several layers containing a duration in their name e.g. 'Frame1 (123 ms)'), a slider will select the current frame, showing its preview and duration.
Common parameters
For photography, quality around 70 is a good start. If size is moreimportant (e.g. icons, heavy-traffic web photos..), going as low as 30 is notuncommon.
For artificial images (e.g. B&W text, low-effect 3D renderings..), qualityof at least 98 might be better-looking and smaller.
If these options are not enough to get a satisfying result, the command linetools offer more settings than this Photoshop plug-in.
