Description Marcos H. Woehrmann 2013-09-19 21:18:57 UTC
The following two command lines produce output with different colors:

bin/gs -o test1.png -dMaxBitmap=10000     -sDEVICE=png16m \
   -r300 ./Altona_Technical_v20_x4_page7.pdf

bin/gs -o test0.png -dMaxBitmap=400000000 -sDEVICE=png16m \
   -r300 ./Altona_Technical_v20_x4_page7.pdf

Note the input file is a cut down version of page 7 of the Altona_Technical_v20_x4.pdf file.

Adobe Acrobat 11.0.04 and muPDF 1.3 both agree with the test1.png file but Apple Preview 6.0.1 agrees with test0.png.
