    XP 7.5 PDF makes photo's Spot Black instead of Greyscale

    Hi everyone,I recently updated my Xpress from 7.2 to 7.5.Ever since then, If i make a PDF with the export function, all greyscale photo's print much darker.When I checked the PDF with 'Box of Tricks', I noticed that all black & white photo's are now set as 'spot black', where it used to be 'greyscale'.I can't for the life of me find a way to correct it. I have tried different export settings, but they all do the same thing. Even tried to export as .EPS and thendistill manually, but no luck there either. So I am thinking it's a 'preference' problem or something.Can someone help me resolve this?

    I think you were enjoying a bug. It used to be that Greyscale Tiffs would output to PDF at about 90% actual weight when they were colored with the Default Black swatch. I think if you switch output color space to Grayscale you can get the reduced weight effect back.
