Joachim_L Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 Now and then I am too lazy to convert a coloured image into a "real" greyscale file, so using the Black & White Adjustment in Publisher would be a nice tool. But this Adjustment seems to have severe problems with blue and red. I attached three images to see the effect in a) Publisher and b) the Black & White Adjustment directly used in APhoto.

walt.farrell Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 I get identical results in both applications, matching the 3rd image you provided. Perhaps there's something else in the Publisher document that's causing a problem. Can you share a .afpub file that shows it?

Joachim_L Posted August 21, 2019 Author Posted August 21, 2019 Call me an idiot ... please! Placed a RGB in a CMYK document. But anyway, this is a big difference from a dark blue to nearly white? Living with my idiocy presented to the public or hiding this thread, thats the question ...
