Export corrupted psd file

[Lionnne]

I'm trying to save my project in psd file type, but when I load it in a psd reader, it gets squeezed and duplicated and I cannot find a way to fix it.
I also tried to save it as a pdf but it still gets distorted in a different way.
I'm using Pop_Os!

A very quick test, two layers. same size as your image 816x1170 px saved as a Gimp .xcf and exported as a psd.

   

Each open and display correctly in photopea

Those layers: CMYK copy and hidden layers ? Might be best if you attach the problem file.

Thank you for the quick response!

Maybe if you can zip the files into one and post on Dropbox or use something like https://oshi.at

First the Gimp back.xcf It is a bit over-the-top 32 bit Floating Point, and there is an active over-large selection, larger than the canvas. No reason for that, turn it off.

I can confirm that strange doubling of back_final.psd image when opened in PhotoPea, but I think that is a PhotoPea issue, the same open in an actual Photoshop. screenshot https://i.imgur.com/DVogyJL.jpg

It is 16 bit, and marked as CMYK,RGB,16bit I have not come across that mix before. The Channels dock (and imagemagick identify) tells me it is RGB.

Is your intention is a CMYK image for printing purposes ? Various ways to make it, I use a Gimp plugin CYAN and 8 bit precision is good enough.  In PS screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/UryI1h1.jpg  The card template is lost but your path remains.  This is the file  cmyk-8bit.psd zipped (saves bandwidth remember to unzip it) https://oshi.at/PMdu 

That opens in PhotoPea as: 

   

It identifies in PhotoPea as CMYK but Channels shows RGB. PhotoPea is not Photoshop any more than Gimp is. 
cmyk-8bit.psd will open in Gimp and converts to RGB as normal. Gimp 2.10.34 will not yet open a 16bit PS CMYK file. (but you can import 16 bit using the CYAN plugin)

That is all about I can deduce at the moment from your images. Keep posting, someone will have other solutions.

Thank you for the help!

I'll try to send the file you gave me, otherwise I kinda lost hope to find a solution to that and just move on with another option.

I think the bottom line is:

Change any high precision settings to 8 bit and remove any active selections before exporting to psd format.

I think the problem is not so much your file as Photopea.
