---------------------------------------

{quote}some blendmodes don't work properly against the page background
{quote}
The "unmarked space" simply means a raster buffer (like BufferedImage) that is 
initially fully transparent. This makes the blend modes work. No new graphics 
engine is needed.

See how Mozilla PDF.js has implemented it 
[here|https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/ea3d8450d218dd53619c72c934547fe57f22530f/src/display/canvas.js#L731].
 If a PDF page uses any blend modes [other than 
Normal|https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/ea3d8450d218dd53619c72c934547fe57f22530f/src/core/evaluator.js#L226],
 PDF.js renders everything on a fully transparent RGBA canvas. Finally when the 
page has been rendered, PDF.js draws the RGBA canvas on a white canvas.

When rendering graphics like this in a fully transparent buffer, you are 
actually implementing _page groups_, which are explained in the PDF 32000 
standard in section 11.4.7.
