[Picture from pdf is shown as complete grey but other programs can see and extract the picture correctly]

The attached PDF file contains some pictures. Sadly Affinity Publisher, Photo and Designer (1.8.3) can't interpret some of the pictures correctly and show them as completly grey.
Other programs like Photoshop or Inkskape interpret the pictures correctly.

@Doni Affinity in general supports the lab format, but obviously not here, so you should post a bug report in the appropriate bug forum.

If you want to continue your testing see attached PDF with RGB on first page. 125 pages in the PDF, so I would use APublisher instead of APhoto. Or best, buy all three applications at a more than reasonable price.

Yeah the plan is to purchase all three if the test comes to a positive result ;)
I will post it in the bug forum. If they can fix it - great, but I think it's not the decisive factor for my decision to purchase it or not.

Affinity supports the Lab format but I don't recall ever seeing PDFs in Lab. I think that is the problem and I don't know how you managed to get a PDF in Lab colourspace.

It's the manual of an old game and is included on the game disc.
The included logo is in vector format and the pictures have a good quality so it's good source material for fan arts, small posters or custom covers.

OK thank you for you help.
So till Affinity supports the lab format I'm still dependent on Photoshop or other applications (for this particular use case) :(

I used the actual 90 days free trial to test if the affinity programs can replace my old Photoshop version. While loading and working on my old psd files is working so far I have problems with an pdf file.
I can open the pdf without problems but affinity shows only a grey layer instead of the actual picture on the first page of the pdf. With Photoshop (CS4) or Inkscape it is no Problem to extract the picture correctly and gimp at least shows the picture correctly (but doesn't separate the different layers).

I added the pdf as attachment.
