Re: BMP file problem help

I have had this effect when I use “Levels” on Photoshop.  If you start with a flat image and need to move the sliders in from both extremes to get good blacks & whites then you reduce the number of grey levels to print, hence posterisation. I have found it always best to convert any image to 16 bit (or even 24) before starting any changes. 
 
Similar effects occur if you use to much compression with jpg files.
 
Start again with the original file.  (Hope you did not change it, then save to same file name, hence losing original information.)

Hi,
 
I have bmp image files that show these “steps” in gray levels. Hints as to
why this happens and what might be a corrective action to take?
