Description

When using the default org.apache.pdfbox.multipdf.Splitter the color of the splitted pages gets changed.
That is a problem

The attachment contains an example. Here one will see that the yellow tone on page 10 is different than the one who got extracted from the original document. See original document.pdf vs page 10.pdf.

The Java code which has been used to extract the pages is:

try (final PDDocument document = Loader.loadPDF(new File(inputPath))) {
    Splitter splitter = new Splitter();
    List<PDDocument> pages = splitter.split(document);
    for (int i = 0; i < pages.size(); i++) {
        final String fileName = OUT_PREFIX + (i + 1) + OUT_SUFFIX;
        final File file = new File(outputPath, fileName);
        pages.get(i).save(file);
    }
}

The pom:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId>
    <artifactId>pdfbox</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.1</version>
</dependency>

Also I am using Java 21.
