Thank you for your response David. As I hinted at in my original email, I *have* looked at the docs/headers, but everything seems to have an alpha channel. I'd like to create a simple grayscale image that does *not* contain an alpha channel.

Does anyone know how to create a simple grayscale image - 8 bits per pixel?

Thanks!

Simon

The acceptable color space names are listed in the docs with the API you listed. Depending on the sense of your pixels and your needs you want one of the White or Black color spaces.

Failure is not an option. It is a privilege reserved for those who try.
