The calculation of the alpha value was wrong. It must not be premultiplied but
simply be copied to the alpha channel.

As a test, I modified softmask.java like this (and passed the softmask):
{code}
if (COSName.ALPHA.equals(softMask.getSubType()))
{
rgba[3] = gray[0];
}
else
{
rgba[3] = Math.round(rgba[3] * (gray[0] / 255f)); // multiply alpha
}
{code}
However this resulted in bad rendering (much black) of

> We recently migrated PDFBox from 1.8.13 to 2.0.3. We found that it becomes 5
> times slower to get a PDF page image and the image is 5 times bigger than
> PDFBox 1.8 did. For example, It took about 200ms and now it takes more than 1
> second, the result size was less 200Kb and it's 1Mb now.
> We specified BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR for PDFBox 1.8 and we have no way
> to do it with 2.x. It might be a reason.
