What to know

Grayscale retains a range of tones rather than forcing pixels to pure black or white. Decoded transparent pixels keep their alpha; source metadata may not remain. Maximum 20 MB, 8 megapixels, and 8192 pixels per side.

Frequently asked questions

Is grayscale the same as black and white?

No. Grayscale keeps intermediate tones; black and white uses only two tones.

Does conversion change pixel dimensions?

No. Width and height stay the same.
