How can obtain the RGB and CMYK pixel values of a pdf page?

What if the color used is not RGB or CMYK? PDF supports 11 different colorspaces...


I want to take whole pdf page as an image and obtain pixel values of this image. Which
image format must be used?

If you want accurate color information, you can NOT treat the PDF as a raster image - you need to treat it as a PDF and get the information directly from the content...

Of course, you could rasterize the PDF to a single colorspace and image format and treat it as pixels - but you would need to ensure that rasterization was color managed.
