    InDesign Text Drop Shadows Affecting Grayscale Images

    When you mentioned that maybe it was converting it to a CMYK bw image this reminded me of something...I have noticed in the past while color correction, taking a bw image and making it a rich black image in Photoshop, there would be a slight shift when pasting your image on just the black...

    InDesign Text Drop Shadows Affecting Grayscale Images

    Well this is really strange. When I go to the "Output" window, and select "separation Preview" and turn "view" "Off" it goes darker. When I turn "View" "Separation" it goes lighter. Number wise all the info is still on the black channel.
