Rendering issue with type 2 shading: vertical expansion
Hello. For the following pdf (which is a simplification of a real life example) the shading is expanded vertically all the page. Other viewers show a rectangle.

Is it an issue from pdfbox or maybe it is a problem with the document itself?

for me it is strange that the expansion is only in the vertical axis (and not in the horizontal axis).
A PDF axial gradient defines a band with gradually changing colors
across the band. If your shading does not extrapolate outside its band,
nothing is drawn at either side of the band. The band is not constrained
in the direction along its direction. So you must use clipping if you
want to constrain it in that direction.
It is common practice to use a shading color derived from the shading.
If you do so, the fill operator takes care of everything.

Hi,
this is weird, there were two applications on 4.7, but both were from
Chinese sounding names. One was approved, one was denied.

Thank you!
FYI: I tried to create my user for Jira last Friday to report the bug, but I have not received any news about that yet (and I tried to create a new user but the service says that there is a pending request for my e-mail).

I'm too lazy to investigate why it goes wrong the way it does, I'm
satisfied that it works properly with a small code segment move 😂

Thanks for your answer. I confirm: if I replace "W f" by "W n" in the original document then the rendering is OK.
Anyway, for me it is strange that the expansion is only in the vertical axis (and not in the horizontal axis).
I can create a bug report if you want. For my use case I can solve the issue with a workaround.

Hi,
It is related to having "W f" instead of "W n" (it works the expected
way when having "W n"). I think we're not fully correct when handling
the "n" operator, that one does the handling of the clipping path which
(maybe) should have been done earlier when handling the "W" operator.
(Usually "W n" come together) My understanding of the "n" description is
that it should consume the path.
