Limitati ons
Bi ts Per Channel—Photoshop supports images with
1, 8, and 16 bits per channel (1-, 24-, and 48-bit
RGB images, respectively). 3ds Max supports PSD
images with 8 or 16 bits per channel. (In practice,
there are very few images with 1 bit per channel.)
While Photoshop can load images with 16 bits per
channel, layers are always 8 bits per channel.

following modes:
•RGB
•Grayscale
3ds Max doesn’t support the following Photoshop
modes:
