Hi!

I was trying to print a pdf which was generated by iText v2.1.5. Unfortunately parts of it were printed in white - the filling color was missing. I could reduce the problem to the attached PDF. When trying to print with PDocument.silentPrint I get the following info message:
[INFO] [org.apache.pdfbox.pdfviewer.PageDrawer] ColorSpace Pattern doesn't provide a non-stroking color, using white instead!

I can reproduce the result when I use PDFToImage and generate a png-file from the pdf (see attachment). The output is similar:
org.apache.pdfbox.pdfviewer.PageDrawer fillPath
INFO: ColorSpace Pattern doesn't provide a non-stroking color, using white instead!

Am I doing something wrong or is this a known issue/bug? Is there a workaround or is it possible to set the non-stroking color? How would I do that programmatically? Which color??

Any help appreciated!

Thanks and best regards
Maurice
