Converting psd/tiff template

So I've been trying to figure out a way to use the calendar templates this week. I can only use the individual png layers. I' was wondering how designers make the png layers , why do some include them while others don't (I am just curious) and is there a way to do that like I convert my png to pdf, jpg etc?
 
I use some automatic actions when I want to save my psd/tiff into png layers. Without it, I think it's just a tedious process of saving layers one by one as png file. As to why some designers don't do it, I think you can always approach the designer privately and ask whether she'll be able to provide you png files. I hope that helps.

This is why I asked. I've never used photo shop so while I can do the "basic 1+1=2" y'all are on advanced algebra haha. I don't even quite know how actions work although I have a general idea. So the whole actual design part is rocket science in another language to me ;) :)
 
Well action (specifically used in Photoshop) is basically made by someone, clever enough, who records the mechanism of saving of each layer of the layout into a single click program that will work on any layout no matter how many layers there is to it.
 
It is a very tedious process, especially if you have lots of layers, if you don't have the tools to do a batch file or have an action that will do it for you.
 
I would contact Janet and ask if she can offer her template in PNG. Before I included PNGS I honestly never even realized that some people couldn't scrap without them! I'm glad several people contacted me to requset them. :)
