Attached PDF file got crashed with the following error message.

System Configurations:

• Operating system: Ubuntu-18.0
• Python version: 3.6
• PyMuPDF version: 1.19.0
  For example, the output of print(sys.version, "\n", sys.platform, "\n", fitz.__doc__) would be sufficient (for the first two bullets).

Insufficient bug description!
The file looks ok and can be opened with pymupdf no problem.
Also the message says "ValueError" - this is an exception, not a crash.
So what did you do that worked before v1.19.0 and now doesn't anymore?

[mailsnathaniel]

I am not saying it worked before. I have processed this document in v1.18 also, it is giving the same error. Kindly please let me know how i can process this document with exception.

Thanks in Advance!

Please do not let me guess - why don't you want to share the failing code.
This exception is very normal if your program is wrong, etc, etc.

[mailsnathaniel]

Failing codes are (0.30000001192092896, 0.800000011920929).

We are talking past each other.
I need to see your source code snippet that causes this exception (again: it is not a crash). You are obviously trying to output something (text, drawing, annotation, ... what?), that uses a color specification with 2 components, while PyMuPDF only allows either 1, 3 or 4 components.

I am changing the title and converting the issue to a discussion, category "Looking for Help".
