get_pixmap function removes the table and leaves just the content behind

[anirudhagarwal1]

Description of the bug

I have a single page pdf file which has a table inside it. When I load the pdf and try to call the get_pixmap function, it just keeps the content and removes the table around it.

pix = page.get_pixmap(alpha=False, dpi=150) image = Image.open(io.BytesIO(pix.tobytes())) image.save("temp.jpeg", format='jpeg')

Unfortunately, I won't be able to share to share this particular pdf on an open platform, would you be able to suggest how can I further debug it?

This specific file seems to be no issue (anymore in recent version). The test file above still is a problem.
