> While testing PDFBox I noticed a few strange color issues when converting the first page of an pdf to an image using the method convertToImage on a PDPage. An example pdf and resulting png is attached for each case.
> - Case 1: Most of the colors seem to get inverted.
> - Case 2: The green color of the area in the top right is paler the the original, and the text under the logo at the bottom right is quite "pixely"
> - Case 3: The blue area under the text is missing
> - Case 4: The red area should be semi-transparent (so the rose stem can be seen behind it), not solid.
> I compared all resulting images with how the pdf looks in Foxit Reader 5.1 on Windows 7.
> This is the code I used:
> ---------
> PDFParser parser = new PDFParser(new FileInputStream(pdfInputFile));
> parser.parse();
> PDDocument document = parser.getPDDocument();
> List<PDPage> pages = (List<PDPage>)document.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages();
> if (pages.size() > 0) {
> PDPage page = pages.get(0);
> BufferedImage image = page.convertToImage(BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB, 300);
> ImageIO.write(image, "png", pngOutputFile);
> }
> ---------
> If there is some change I can do in my code or some configuration to improve some of these issues, then I would love to hear about it. As a comparison, Ghost4j (with Ghostscript underneath) can handle these cases better. Even the text under the logo in case 2 was less "pixely", with the same resolution.
