Constantine Dokolas commented on PDFBOX-4205:
---------------------------------------------

Note: should the "Affected versions" be updated to show that it is still 
applicable to 2.0.19?

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4205
>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.7, 2.0.8, 2.0.9
>         Environment: Ubuntu 16.04
>            Reporter: Harry Dent
>            Priority: Minor
>         Attachments: image-2020-02-24-17-59-08-300.png, lossy.png,

> The attached grayscale png becomes lighter when run through the following 
> code snippet: 
> {code:java}
> BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new File("picture_of_text.png"));
> PDImageXObject xObject = LosslessFactory.createFromImage(new PDDocument(), 
> image);
> BufferedImage lossy = xObject.getImage();
> ImageIO.write(lossy, "png", new File("lossy.png"));
> {code}
> The difference is easiest to spot by looking at the "S" in "41st". The loss 
> in quality occurs in {{createFromImage()}} (rather than {{getImage()}}), 
> which can be shown by embedding the {{PDImageXObject}} into a {{PDDocument}} 
> and then saving this document to a file.
