When a signed document containing an image with Indexed color space is import-exported the image data seems corrupted.

Currently, the SkiaImageFormatProvider considers the RadFixedPage.Size when creating the image. If the RadFixedPage.CropBox is specified, the developer can control what rectangle of the page to be displayed/printed. However, it is not considered when exporting to an image. Improving the SkiaImageFormatProvider to respect the CropBox as well will give the opportunity to crop just a certain region of the PDF page and save it as an image.

Wrong glyph rendering due to incorrectly parsed Type1Font glyph data.

I have a simple program that imports a PDF, calls AcroForm.FlattenFormFields(), and calls Export() on the PdfFormatProvider. With the attached example PDF I am seeing the following exception.

System.NotImplementedException: 'The method or operation is not implemented.'
