Funny, on the PC, I fond it easier to just leave it in color (but save
the picture as a BMP).
As for the original poster's problems... you need to check the
preferences to see what platform that NewtonPress is trying to generate
for. If you're getting back-and-white, then you're probably trying to
generate a "Classic" or "Universal" book. To get grays, you need to
generate specifically for a 2x00.

In NewtonPress select the appropriate size, drop the picture in your book, and very important: Click on Title, then on "More Choices=93 and in the ISBN field type "A!:" followed by anything you want. Create the package and send it to Your Newton. Thats it.
