Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2221:
-----------------------------------------
That file uses the /Lab colorspace. Values from there are converted to the XYZ
colorspace, and then to RGB. The conversion to XYZ brings slightly negative X
value. The RGB conversion, which is done by java itself, apparently can't
handle this. Because the XYZ values [should not be
negative|http://ninedegreesbelow.com/photography/icc-profile-negative-tristimulus.html],
I set negative values to 0 and all is good. This was done in rev XXX for the
trunk.
It is of course a mystery why the author of that pdf (Queen Beatrix) used an
"exotic" colorspace for a b/w text.
