I have a somewhat basic question about using black and white adjustment layers in photoshop. I'm currently designing a few media guides for my college's athletic teams...the covers are in color and the guts are in black and white. I know a lot about typography, logo design, and page layout, but not a lot about photography (basically...I love InDesign, really like Illustrator, and hate Photoshop). In the past I have been guilty of just running an automated 'convert to grayscale' script and throwing the resulting images in the guide. The default profile using a black and white adjustment layer already looks a lot better than what I get from |Image-Mode-Grayscale| and I usually make a few minor adjustments like bringing out the blues in our team's uniforms or lightening an athlete's face if there's a bad shadow. Right now the graphical links to my InDesign document are in sRGB, and a preflight is giving me exclamation points and warnings about 515 links using RGB color space. My service bureau's prepress sheet says to stick with CMYK for color printing, as expected. But it doesn't say that for black and white printing. So to get the results I expect from these photographs, should I flatten all the images and convert to CMYK? Or does it not matter?
