Layers in reverse

Is there a way to take a flattened image and reverse that so you can manipulate the layers? Photoshop allows it.

You mean, an already saved image? No.

Of course, if you mean undoing flattening while the project is still open, it's perfectly doable via Undo History dialog..

Photoshop allows it.

I very much doubt that.

Actually I think when opening PDFs with layer information Photoshop does allow it. PDFs aren't 'images' of course.

AFAIK, no. Illustrator is capable of that, but Photoshop isn't.

I think she's talking about something like this in p-shop, saving the psd plus flattened image:
