[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-4380) PDF will only print rasterized on Windows

Tres Finocchiaro created PDFBOX-4380:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: PDF will only print rasterized on Windows
                 Key: PDFBOX-4380
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4380
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Rendering
    Affects Versions: 2.0.12
         Environment: Windows 10 Pro x64
macOS 10.14
            Reporter: Tres Finocchiaro

Near identical symptoms to PDFBOX-4123, but only on Windows.

[This PDF|https://github.com/qzind/tray/files/2587736/AWB_BM82266397503.pdf] will only print rasterized.  It looks fine in Adobe Reader, but once printed using PDFBOX, it will always print rasterized.

Information about how the PDF was created is not available but can be requested.

Like PDFBOX-4123, I found a Transparency block inspecting the PDF raw contents. However the workaround provided in PDFBOX-4123 does not remedy the situation. Furthermore, the behavior is inconsistent between macOS and Windows.
 * Windows testing was performed using Java 8u191 and PDFCreator.  Same behavior with Microsoft Print to PDF.
 * macOS testing was performed using Java 8u181 and Lisanet PDFwriter.
