ComfyUI Extension: Comfy-Photoshop-SD

Comfy-Photoshop-SD Introduction

Comfy-Photoshop-SD is an extension designed to bridge the gap between ComfyUI and the Auto-Photoshop-SD plugin in Adobe Photoshop. This extension allows AI artists to leverage the powerful capabilities of ComfyUI directly within Photoshop, enabling seamless integration of Stable Diffusion workflows into their creative process. By using this extension, you can generate and manipulate images with AI directly in Photoshop, without the need to switch between different applications. This can significantly streamline your workflow, making it easier to create stunning AI-generated art.

How Comfy-Photoshop-SD Works

Comfy-Photoshop-SD works by establishing a connection between ComfyUI and the Auto-Photoshop-SD plugin. Here’s a simplified breakdown of how it operates:

1. Workflow Creation in ComfyUI: You start by creating a workflow in ComfyUI, which is a powerful and modular GUI for Stable Diffusion.
2. Conversion to API Format: Once your workflow is ready and error-free, you save it in a special API format (JSON).
3. Integration with Photoshop: The saved API JSON file is then loaded into Photoshop via the Auto-Photoshop-SD plugin, allowing you to run the workflow directly within Photoshop. This integration allows you to use advanced AI features like Txt2Img, Img2Img, inpainting, and outpainting directly in Photoshop, enhancing your creative capabilities.
