Topmost pixels of Big PNG object gets black using insert_image() function

[LasseStaeglichPP]

Description of the bug

When using PyMuPDF's insert_image function to insert a transparent PNG into a PDF, certain areas of the image (notably the topmost pixels) appear as solid black in the generated PDF. This issue is most noticeable in large PNG images (~300 DPI, dimensions such as 56 cm x 100 cm)
I tried the insert_image() function with the Image parameter as a File, Pixmap and stream. All had the same result

Here the resulting PDF file:
23511_1_No.pdf
Screenshot of the PNG wihtout the issue

The PNG was sadly to big for uploading so i here is a wetransfer link:

I did some further testing and i got a work around in reducing the DPI to exactly 300DPI or below, I did not get this issue since. But i prefer to not alter the images and reduce quality if i dont have to

Hi, just the morning after i said we did not get this issue since scaling down to 300dpi i got this issue again.

It is here the last image on this gangsheet
28258_1_No.pdf

This is my code snippet on how i use the insert_image()

image = Image.open(path).convert("RGBA")

img_bytes = io.BytesIO()
image.save(img_bytes, format="PNG")
img_bytes.seek(0)

page.insert_image(placings_rect, stream=img_bytes.getvalue(), rotate=rotate)

Thanks for the third link, actually i downloaded from the second link, so i now have the file. I can reproduce the problem, but i don't yet understand what's going wrong.

Hi Julian, good to know you are able to reproduce the issue! If i can be of any help, sadly i am new to programming so i probably cannot help with this. But maybe more files where i find this exact issue might help, what do you think?
