Then do the same thing in PS. Convert to color. Add Magenta & Yellow for grade 2. Convert back to gray scale. Convert to color Select outer portions Add Magenta & a little yellow for a grade 4 & darken. Convert back to gray scale. Almost the same as a chemical darkroom. I do it with Picture Publisher. Works well.
