I'm attempting to implement gray-scale printing.

In my research the Chromaticity.MONOCHROME print attribute seems to be
ignored by most print drivers.

Research shows there is a utility in PDFBOX 1.x called ConvertColorspace.
Does such a ConvertColorspace tool exist for 2.0?  If not, is there a
recommended alternative?

I'm also a bit confused in regards to what Java believes MONOCHROME
printing is, since there is a huge difference between "GRAYSCALE" and
"MONOCHROME", as "MONOCHROME" would implement 1-bit color palette without
any shaded and use pixel dithering to emulate shading, or force strict
black/white.

If possible, we'd like the option for both, although I understand dithering
is quite a different request over GRAYSCALE.
