This is an easy one. Your first pdf is rgb and the second one is cmyk. If
you want to produce the second pdf use an instance of CMYKColor.

Subject: [iText-questions] color black
Dear Itext,
The attached program, jpdfmain.java, produced a pdf
file, test01.pdf, which has a line of text on the page
written in the color black. However, when the document
is looked at in Adobe Acrobat 7.0, (menu items-
tools/print production/output preview) - see attached
file 0604031557.jpg - the text does NOT consist only
of black.
After applying a conversion process within Acrobat
(menu items - tools/print production/convert colors) -
see attached file 0604031600.jpg - the text does
consist only of black. The modified pdf file is
test01fixed.pdf.
I would appreciate if you could tell how this could be
achieved using the itext library classes/methods.
Thanks very much.
Arthur Gober
