Blank Document Presets in Photoshop

Blank Document Presets are blank documents with predefined dimensions and settings. Presets make designing for specific device form factors or use cases easier. For example, you can use a preset to quickly start designing for the iPad Pro. Blank document presets have predefined size, color mode, unit, orientation, positioning, and resolution settings. You can modify these settings before creating a document using the preset.

 

Templates and presets are categorized into these sets:

  • Photo
  • Print
  • Art & Illustration
  • Web
  • Mobile
  • Film & Video

Use the legacy File New experience in Photoshop

Although not recommended, you can disable the latest New Document experience and revert to the File New experience that Photoshop provided by default (in versions CC 2015.5 and earlier).

Finally, if you’re a long-time Photoshop user, you may feel like the redesigned New Document dialog box in Photoshop CC is a bit too much. Personally, I’ve grown to like it, but if you prefer the old style dialog box, you can easily switch back to it using Photoshop’s Preferences.

  1. Select Edit > Preferences > General.
  2. Select Use Legacy File New Interface. Click OK.
