ChatGPT Now Edits Photos and PDFs with Adobe Tools

3 Minutes

ChatGPT can now edit your images and PDFs using Adobe's Photoshop, Acrobat, and Adobe Express—directly in the chat and at no extra cost. Upload a file, type what you want changed, and the Adobe app runs inline to apply edits fast.

How it works inside ChatGPT

Rather than switching between apps, you simply upload a photo or PDF to your ChatGPT conversation and type a text instruction, for example: 'Photoshop, help me blur the background.' The Adobe app launches inside the chat and performs the requested edits. You can continue the same conversation to refine results without repeatedly naming the tool.

Depending on the command, the integrated apps may offer multiple choices or interactive controls like sliders to tweak brightness, contrast, and exposure. If a result isn't perfect, use the on-screen sliders for fine adjustments or choose to 'Open in Photoshop' to finish edits in the full desktop app.

What you can do right now

  • Photoshop: target specific areas, apply creative effects, and adjust brightness, contrast, and exposure directly in-chat.
  • Acrobat: edit existing PDFs, compress or convert files to PDF, extract text or tables, and merge multiple documents.
  • Adobe Express: design and edit cards, posters, and social graphics, with options for templates, custom tweaks, and simple animations.

These in-chat versions don't replicate every advanced desktop feature, but they cover the core tools most users need for quick edits and layouts. When deeper control is required, you can open your file in the native Adobe apps to continue working with full feature sets.

The integration is available across desktop, web, and iOS, with Adobe Express accessible on Android and Photoshop and Acrobat support coming soon for Android devices. This agent-driven Adobe integration aims to make creative editing more conversational and accessible, lowering the bar for users who may not have advanced design skills.

Starting today, these Adobe-powered editing tools are rolling out for more than 800 million ChatGPT users, offering a faster, more seamless way to polish images and PDFs without leaving your chat.
