To work with certain Photoshop features, such as layers, filters, and adjustments, you can convert a 32-bits-per-
channel image to a 16-bits-per-channel image. Do a Save As and convert a copy of the image file so that the original
file retains the full 32-bits-per-channel image data.
Note: It’s also possible to convert a 32-bits-per-channel image to 8 bits per channel. See “To convert from 32 bits to 8 or
16 bits per channel” on page 205.
