Hey guys, newbie question here! ; )
I have an Image Magick admin/backend on my Wordpress Website, set up like this were I have separate layers:

Questions:
- Is it possible to import a PSD or SVG file and have it with separate layers on my ImageMagick Wordpress Admin/backend? Or do I need to individually save them as images and import them one by one?
Can I import a displacement map profile I created on Photoshop and have it on one of these layers?

IM can import separate PSD layers as separate raster images, but with some restrictions on the type of PSD layers it can read.
From an SVG file, IM can import only one raster image.

So it should be possible to do this?
Exporting those PSD separate raster layers

And then importing the RASTER layers (shadow, softlight, displacement) on my ImageMagick Wordpress admin/backend

Add "multiply", "mask""overlay", and "displacement" to respective layers
Voilá. Mockup ready for user to add his own artwork.
Would that work?

IM does not understand adjustment layers or layer groups in PSD files. So unless your layers are not just simple ones, IM cannot export those. You could export them as single images from Photoshop. Then process them in IM.

Thanks Fred, that's what I will try to do! Will give an update here when I have something set up!
