Summary: PDFRenderer adding horizental white lines to exported
image
Key: PDFBOX-4530
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4530
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Rendering
Affects Versions: 2.0.15
Reporter: amiladi

Hello,
I started using pdfbox recently to extract a datamatrix code from a pdf file.
The image extraction works pretty fine.
We found out that the source of the pdfs is not attaching them neither as
embedded objects or inline image, the datamatrix is coded in the pdf as black
squares.
Then, the idea was to convert the pdf to an image and parse the code.
Only problem, the conversion sometimes add white lines inside the datamatrix
which makes the it unparsable (see attachements page-3-1.jpeg and page-3.pdf)
For some other cases, the datamatrix squares differ in size in the exported
image while they are the same in the original pdf file (see attachements
page-7.jpeg and page-7-1.pdf).
The outcome is the same and the parser is not able to recognize the datamatrix
content.
The code I am using to convert to BufferedImage is pretty straightforward
{code:java}
// code placeholder
{code}
BufferedImage bi = new
PDFRenderer(pdDocument).renderImageWithDPI(i, 600, ImageType.BINARY);
Is it the way I am using the renderer which causing this problem or simply a
bug in the software!
I am attaching the test project reproducing the behavior.
