I've noticed the same thing with ACDSee, and it appears every version of it
does that.  Also, JPGs are much slower to load or view than TIFs or RAW
files.

Regards,

Mitch

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
