Section 4.5 of the PDF reference says: "Color values are interpreted according to the current color space, another parameter of the graphics state. A PDF content stream first selects a color space by invoking the CS operator (for the stroking color) or the cs operator (for the non-stroking color). It then selects color values within that color space with the SC operator (stroking) or the sc operator (nonstroking). There are also convenience operators—G, g, RG, rg, K, and k—that select both a color space and a color value within it in a single step." Previously, those convenience operators did *not* set the color space. This commit, following on filed issue #779, fixes this. It also adds a test to demonstrate that, at least for the do_rg method, the fix works as intended. |

pdfminer.six
We fathom PDF
Pdfminer.six is a community maintained fork of the original PDFMiner. It is a tool for extracting information from PDF documents. It focuses on getting and analyzing text data. Pdfminer.six extracts the text from a page directly from the sourcecode of the PDF. It can also be used to get the exact location, font or color of the text.
It is built in a modular way such that each component of pdfminer.six can be replaced easily. You can implement your own interpreter or rendering device that uses the power of pdfminer.six for other purposes than text analysis.
