Hi Dennis.
You may know this already, but you can still deal with values between 0 and
255 in CMYK mode when you use either the Levels or Curves adjustments.
In Curves, flip the orientation of the tonal input bar (the little bar above
"Input" and "Output", with the two little white and black triangles in the
middle).
The default orientation in CMYK has the lower numbers/lighter tones on the
left (less ink) and the higher numbers/darker tones on the right (more ink),
in steps from 1 to 100. Flipping the orientation gives you the lower
numbers/darker tones on the left (less light) and the higher numbers/lighter
tones on the right (more light), in steps from 0 to 255.
Regards.
