Can't extract b/w images from PDF
---------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-955
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-955
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
         Environment: Windows XP
            Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
            Priority: Blocker


I wrote a test application using org.apache.pdfbox.ExtractImages to... extract 
images as PNG. However all images I get are all black or all white when I test 
on our own PDF files. I did get correct images from a file that had color 
images. To extract, I tried page.convertToImage() and then writing with 
ImageIO.write(), but I also tried using PDFImageWriter, neither had success for 
b/w images.

If I can attach a file in the next window I will do it. The sample PDF is not 
confidential; it does give a warning "getRGBImage returned NULL" but other PDFs 
that don't give the warning (but are confidential) also fail.
