How can I prevent a B&W text capture (prep for OCR) from being instantly converted to deep color?

Thanks

The screen capture function always uses the bit depth of the display. If the captured data does not contain more than 2 colors, you can simply do a Color->Convert to->Indexed 256 (or Black & White) and you should end up with a monocrome image.

Thanks,
Peter
