Subject: [Leica] OT: ACDSee oddities with JPEG B&W images

For some time now I have felt that ACDSee was displaying my B&W JPEG images 
a bit 'gray'.
I finally did some testing tonight and discovered, to my shock, that a JPEG 
B&W image saved in grayscale format, and a copy saved in RGB format will 
display differently in ACDSee. The highlights 'gray' ever so slightly in the 
grayscale format JPEG.

Interestingly, if TIFF format is used, the images are identical and correct 
with the PS original.

Anyone else noticed this?
Or do I have to much time on my hands?

Eric
