## Workflow

## Best For

- Black-and-white visual styling.
- Reducing color intensity for design consistency.
- Creating grayscale derivatives without modifying the source file.

## Limits

- Grayscale conversion removes or reduces color information in the exported result.
- It does not improve image resolution or restore missing detail.

## Visible FAQ

- Does grayscale modify my original file? No. The tool creates a new output image from the selected source rather than modifying the source file itself.
