Thanks for your inquiry. The SaveOptions.ColorMode property is useful when saving the document to fixed page formats such as .pdf, .xps, images. If you want to save document in .pdf format then use this sample code to achieve results.

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "input.docx");
PdfSaveOptions pdfSaveOptions = new PdfSaveOptions();
pdfSaveOptions.ColorMode = ColorMode.Grayscale;
doc.Save(MyDir + "output.pdf", pdfSaveOptions);

If you want to save document in .docx format then please use the following code:

        Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "input.docx");
        NodeCollection runs = doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.Run, true);
        // Set color of text in each run.
        foreach (Run run in runs)
        {
            run.Font.Color = Color.Black;
        }

        foreach (Words.Drawing.Shape shape in doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.Shape, true))
        {
            if (shape.HasImage)
            {
                shape.ImageData.GrayScale = true;
            }

        }

        doc.Save(MyDir + "output.docx");

Hope, this helps.
