It should be 8-bits per pixel. I'm working on regenerating the files...

I had converted the PDF document obtained here:http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/testpage.pdf to obtain pwg-raster file using Google cloud print. I am able to get the pwg-raster file from GCP successfully. However, on converting the pwg-raster file to RGB data, I have been successful in decoding around 1/6th or so, to raster data successfully, i.e. the top part of the page is being rendered successfully, while the rest is not rendered.
