        The image is question is a 8 bit DeviceGray image. We normally build a a compatible colour model, colour space and the final buffered image. For some reason the image is decoded with colours that are slighly lighter then expected. After quite a bit of experimenting I've moved to converting the Y device gray colour data to RGB which has resulted in a improved colour representation when compared to other viewers.

        The fix seems good enough but there is a high risk of regressions. I'll need to run a full QA run.

        Had a couple of regressions in QA related to the new method not taking into account the decode array. Working well now, marking as fixed.
