To create the image, I need to do some drawing, so I use an image with and NSCustomImageRep to do the drawing. I tell that image rep to be NSCalibratedWhiteColorSpace. I then lock focus on the image and use initWithFocusedViewRect: to get the bitmap data. This always returns an image rep with RGBA color in NSCalibratedRGBColorSpace. If I then set it to NSCalibratedWhiteColorSpace, it doesn't do any conversion for me - just leaves it as 4 samples per pixel (RGBA).
Will I need to do the conversion manually, or is there some way that will allow me to get a grayscale alpha image directly?

initWithFocusedViewRect: reads from the window's backing store buffer and that is always RGB or RGBA. This is true even in images which you lock focus on since it creates an offscreen window to record the bits.

You will have to do the conversion manually.
