Given that the `vertical` property is always accessed on the main-thread, ensuring that the property is explicitly defined seems like the correct thing to do since it also avoids boolean casting elsewhere in the code-base.
Given the way that "classes" were previously implemented in PDF.js, using regular functions and closures, there's a fair number of false positives when the `no-shadow` ESLint rule was enabled.
Note that while *some* of these `eslint-disable` statements can be removed if/when the relevant code is converted to proper `class`es, we'll probably never be able to get rid of all of them given our naming/coding conventions (however I don't really see this being a problem).
*This is part of a series of patches that will try to split PR 11566 into smaller chunks, to make reviewing more feasible.*
Once all the code has been fixed, we'll be able to eventually enable the ESLint no-shadow rule; see https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-shadow
The /Differences array of the problematic font contains a `/c.1` entry, which is consequently detected as a *possible* Cdd{d}/cdd{d} glyphName by the existing heuristics.
Because of how the base 10 conversion is implemented, which is necessary for the base 16 special case, the parsed charCode becomes `0.1` thus causing `String.fromCodePoint` to throw since that obviously isn't a valid code point.
To fix the referenced issue, and to hopefully prevent similar ones in the future, the patch adds *additional* validation of the charCode found by the heuristics.
The PDF document in question is *corrupt*, since it contains an XObject with a truncated dictionary and where the stream contents start without a "stream" operator.
Note that `Dict.set` will only be called with values returned through `Parser.getObj`, and thus indirectly via `Lexer.getObj`. Since neither of those methods will ever return `undefined`, we can simply assert that that's the case when inserting data into the `Dict` and thus get rid of `in` checks when doing the data lookups.
In this case, since `Dict.set` is fairly hot, the patch utilizes an *inline check* and when necessary a direct call to `unreachable` to not affect performance of `gulp server/test` too much (rather than always just calling `assert`).
For very large and complex PDF files this will help performance *slightly*, since `Dict.{get, getAsync, has}` is called *a lot* during parsing in the worker.
This patch was tested using the PDF file from issue 2618, i.e. http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=226471, with the following manifest file:
```

"file": "../web/pdfs/issue2618.pdf",
"md5": "",
"rounds": 250,
"type": "eq"

```
which gave the following results when comparing this patch against the `master` branch:
```

The PDF document in question is *corrupt*, since it contains multiple instances of incorrect operators.
We obviously don't want to slow down parsing of *all* documents (since most are valid), just to accommodate a particular bad PDF generator, hence the reason for the inline check before calling the `ensureStateFont` method.
This patch extends the existing heuristics, which are really the best that we can do in general for these kinds of non-embedded *and* non-standard fonts.
Furthermore, this patch also tries to improve the copy-and-paste behaviour for non-embedded Wingdings fonts by also using the `ZapfDingbatsEncoding` in this case.
*Note:* I'm not sure that adding additional tests for Wingdings fonts matters that much, given how limited our "support" for them really is.
In some cases PDF documents can contain JPEG images that the native browser decoder cannot handle, e.g. images with DNL (Define Number of Lines) markers or images where the SOF (Start of Frame) marker contains a wildly incorrect `scanLines` parameter.
Currently, for "simple" JPEG images, we're relying on native image decoding to *fail* before falling back to the implementation in `src/core/jpg.js`. In some cases, note e.g. issue 10880, the native image decoder doesn't outright fail and thus some images may not render.
In an attempt to improve the current situation, this patch adds additional validation of the JPEG image SOF data to force the use of `src/core/jpg.js` directly in cases where the native JPEG decoder cannot be trusted to do the right thing.
The only way to implement this is unfortunately to parse the *beginning* of the JPEG image data, looking for a SOF marker. To limit the impact of this extra parsing, the result is cached on the `JpegStream` instance and this code is only run for images which passed all of the pre-existing "can the JPEG image be natively rendered and/or decoded" checks.
---
*Slightly off-topic:* Working on this *really* makes me start questioning if native rendering/decoding of JPEG images is actually a good idea.
There's certain kinds of JPEG images not supported natively, and all of the validation which is now necessary isn't "free". At this point, in the `NativeImageDecoder`, we're having to check for certain properties in the image dictionary, parse the `ColorSpace`, and finally read the actual image data to find the SOF marker.
Furthermore, we cannot just send the image to the main-thread and be done in the "JpegStream" case, but we also need to wait for rendering to complete (or fail) before continuing with other parsing.
In the "JpegDecode" case we're even having to parse part of the image on the main-thread, which seems completely at odds with the principle of doing all heavy parsing in the Worker, and there's also a couple of potentially large (temporary) allocations/copies of TypedArray data involved as well.
This covers cases that the `--fix` command couldn't deal with, and in a few cases (notably `src/core/jbig2.js`) the code was changed to use block-scoped variables instead.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
With the recent introduction of Prettier this sort of mass enabling of ESLint rules becomes a lot easier, since the code will be automatically reformatted as necessary to account for e.g. changed line lengths.
Note that this patch is generated automatically, by using the ESLint `--fix` argument, and will thus require some additional clean-up (which is done separately).
Fixes#11403
The PDF uses the non-embedded Type1 font Helvetica. Character codes 194 and 160 (`Â` and `NBSP`) are encoded as `.notdef`. We shouldn't show those glyphs because it seems that Acrobat Reader doesn't draw glyphs that are named `.notdef` in fonts like this.
In addition to testing `glyphName === ".notdef"`, we must test also `glyphName === ""` because the name `""` is used in `core/encodings.js` for undefined glyphs in encodings like `WinAnsiEncoding`.
The solution above hides the `Â` characters but now the replacement character (space) appears to be too wide. I found out that PDF.js ignores font's `Widths` array if the font has no `FontDescriptor` entry. That happens in #11403, so the default widths of Helvetica were used as specified in `core/metrics.js` and `.nodef` got a width of 333. The correct width is 0 as specified by the `Widths` array in the PDF. Thus we must never ignore `Widths`.
This way we'll benefit from the existing font caching, and can thus avoid re-creating a fallback font over and over again during parsing.
(Thece changes necessitated the previous patch, since otherwise breakage could occur e.g. with fake workers.)
In order to eventually get rid of SystemJS and start using native `import`s instead, we'll need to provide "complete" file identifiers since otherwise there'll be MIME type errors when attempting to use `import`.
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
Note that Prettier, purposely, has only limited [configuration options](https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html). The configuration file is based on [the one in `mozilla central`](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/.prettierrc) with just a few additions (to avoid future breakage if the defaults ever changes).
Prettier is being used for a couple of reasons:
- To be consistent with `mozilla-central`, where Prettier is already in use across the tree.
- To ensure a *consistent* coding style everywhere, which is automatically enforced during linting (since Prettier is used as an ESLint plugin). This thus ends "all" formatting disussions once and for all, removing the need for review comments on most stylistic matters.
Many ESLint options are now redundant, and I've tried my best to remove all the now unnecessary options (but I may have missed some).
Note also that since Prettier considers the `printWidth` option as a guide, rather than a hard rule, this patch resorts to a small hack in the ESLint config to ensure that *comments* won't become too long.
*Please note:* This patch is generated automatically, by appending the `--fix` argument to the ESLint call used in the `gulp lint` task. It will thus require some additional clean-up, which will be done in a *separate* commit.
(On a more personal note, I'll readily admit that some of the changes Prettier makes are *extremely* ugly. However, in the name of consistency we'll probably have to live with that.)
This will allow us to attempt to recover as much as possible of a page, rather than immediately failing, when a broken/unsupported ColorSpace is encountered. This patch thus extends the framework added in PRs such as e.g. 8240 and 8922, to also cover parsing of ColorSpaces.
I completely overlooked this in PR 11281, but you obviously need to make similar changes in `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` since it will otherwise ignore valid Blend Modes.
Sometimes we also used `@return`, but `@returns` is what the JSDoc
documentation recommends. Even though `@return` works as an alias, it's
good to use the recommended syntax and to be consistent within the
project.
For badly generated PDF documents, with issue 6961 being one example, there's well over one hundred thousand function calls being made in total for just the *two* pages.
This handles the two different ways that fonts can be loaded, either by Name (which is the common case) or by Reference.
Furthermore, this also takes the `ignoreErrors` option into account when deciding whether to fallback or Error.
Finally, by creating a minimal but valid Font dictionary, there's no special-cases necessary in any of the font parsing code.

*Please note:* I've been thinking about possible ways of addressing this issue for a while now, but all of the solutions I came up with became too complicated and thus hurt readability of the code.
However, it occured to me that we're essentially trying to add a heuristic *on top* of another heuristic, and that it shouldn't matter how efficient the code is as long as it works.
In the PDF file in the issue the Encoding contains glyphNames of the `Cdd` format, which our existing heuristics will treat as base 10 values. However, in this particular file they actually contain base 16 values, which we thus attempt to detect and fix such that text-selection works.
It recently occurred to me that the CMap data should be an excellent candidate for transfering.
This will help reduce peak memory usage for PDF documents using CMaps, since transfering of data avoids duplicating it on both the main- and worker-threads.
Unfortunately it's not possible to actually transfer data when *returning* data through `sendWithPromise`, and another solution had to be used.
Initially I looked at using one message for requesting the data, and another message for returning the actual CMap data. While that should have worked, it would have meant adding a lot more complexity particularly on the worker-thread.
Hence the simplest solution, at least in my opinion, is to utilize `sendWithStream` since that makes it *really* easy to transfer the CMap data. (This required PR 11115 to land first, since otherwise CMap fetch errors won't propagate correctly to the worker-thread.)
Please note that the patch *purposely* only changes the API to Worker communication, and not the API *itself* since changing the interface of `CMapReaderFactory` would be a breaking change.
Furthermore, given the relatively small size of the `.bcmap` files (the largest one is smaller than the default range-request size) streaming doesn't really seem necessary either.
*Please note:* The majority of this patch was written by Yury, and it's simply been rebased and slightly extended to prevent issues when dealing with `RenderingCancelledException`.
By leveraging streams this (finally) provides a simple way in which parsing can be aborted on the worker-thread, which will ultimately help save resources.
With this patch worker-thread parsing will *only* be aborted when the document is destroyed, and not when rendering is cancelled. There's a couple of reasons for this:
- The API currently expects the *entire* OperatorList to be extracted, or an Error to occur, once it's been started. Hence additional re-factoring/re-writing of the API code will be necessary to properly support cancelling and re-starting of OperatorList parsing in cases where the `lastChunk` hasn't yet been seen.
- Even with the above addressed, immediately cancelling when encountering a `RenderingCancelledException` will lead to worse performance in e.g. the default viewer. When zooming and/or rotation of the document occurs it's very likely that `cancel` will be (almost) immediately followed by a new `render` call. In that case you'd obviously *not* want to abort parsing on the worker-thread, since then you'd risk throwing away a partially parsed Page and thus be forced to re-parse it again which will regress perceived performance.
- This patch is already *somewhat* risky, given that it touches fundamentally important/critical code, and trying to keep it somewhat small should hopefully reduce the risk of regressions (and simplify reviewing as well).
Time permitting, once this has landed and been in Nightly for awhile, I'll try to work on the remaining points outlined above.

For very large and complex PDF files this will help performance slightly, since `EvaluatorPreprocessor.read` is called a lot during parsing in the worker.

This gave the following results when comparing this patch against the `master` branch:
```

A lot of the `new Parser()` call-sites look quite unwieldy/ugly as-is, with a bunch of somewhat randomly ordered arguments, which we can avoid by changing the constructor to accept an object instead. As an added bonus, this provides better documentation without having to add inline argument comments in the code.
Currently `handleColorN` will fallback to add a completely unparsed/unvalidated operator when no valid pattern was found. This is unfortunate, since it could very easily lead to a couple of different errors:
- `DataCloneError`s when attempting to send the data to the main-thread, e.g. when `args` is `Dict`/`Stream`.
- Errors in `getShadingPatternFromIR` on the main-thread, unless `args` just happens to have the expected format.
- Errors when actually attempting to render the pattern on the main-thread, since the `args` will most likely not have the expected format.
Hence it probably makes sense to error in `PartialEvaluator.handleColorN`, and having invalid patterns fail gracefully via the existing `ignoreErrors` code-paths instead.
First of all, while this simple approach appears to work OK in practice I'm not sure if it's the best way of addressing the problem (assuming that you even want to).
Second of all, while the solution implemented here only requires tracking/checking one new boolean in order for this to work, I'm nonetheless not entirely happy about this since it will add additional overhead (albeit *very* small) to the parsing of path operators in PDF documents just for a handful of *corrupt* ones.
This way we can avoid manually building a "document id" in multiple places in `evaluator.js`, and it also let's us avoid passing in an otherwise unnecessary `PDFManager` instance when creating a `PartialEvaluator`.
Without this some fonts may incorrectly end up with matching `hash`es, thus breaking rendering since we'll not actually try to load/parse some of the fonts.
Note that `PartialEvaluator.preEvaluateFont` will return an empty string when no hash was computed. This will complete short-circuit the `fontAlias` comparison in `PartialEvaluator.loadFont`, since fonts which are totally different will then match if their `hash`es are empty.
By transfering `ArrayBuffer`s you can avoid having two copies of the same data, i.e. one copy on each of the worker/main-thread, for data that's used only *once* on the worker-thread.
Note how the code in [`PDFImage.createMask`](80135378ca/src/core/image.js (L284-L285)) goes to great lengths to actually enable tranfering of the image data. However in [`PartialEvaluator.buildPaintImageXObject`](80135378ca/src/core/evaluator.js (L336)) the `cached` property is always set to `true`, which disqualifies the image data from being transfered; see [`getTransfers`](80135378ca/src/core/operator_list.js (L552-L554)).
For most ImageMask data this patch won't matter, since images found in the `/Resources -> /XObject` dictionary will always be indexed by name. However for *inline* images which contains ImageMask data, where only "small" images are cached (in both `parser.js` and `evaluator.js`), the current code will result in some unnecessary memory usage.
For Type3 fonts text-selection is often not that great, and there's a couple of heuristics used to try and improve things. This patch simple extends those heuristics a bit, and fixes a pre-existing "naive" array comparison, but this all feels a bit brittle to say the least.
The existing Type3 test-coverage isn't that great in general, and in particular Type3 `text` tests are few and far between, hence why this patch adds *two* different new `text` tests.
The `src/shared/util.js` file is being bundled into both the `pdf.js` and `pdf.worker.js` files, meaning that its code is by definition duplicated.
Some main-thread only utility functions have already been moved to a separate `src/display/display_utils.js` file, and this patch simply extends that concept to utility functions which are used *only* on the worker-thread.
Note in particular the `getInheritableProperty` function, which expects a `Dict` as input and thus *cannot* possibly ever be used on the main-thread.
After PR 9340 all glyphs are now re-mapped to a Private Use Area (PUA) which means that if a font fails to load, for whatever reason[1], all glyphs in the font will now render as Unicode glyph outlines.
This obviously doesn't look good, to say the least, and might be seen as a "regression" since previously many glyphs were left in their original positions which provided a slightly better fallback[2].
Hence this patch, which implements a *general* fallback to the PDF.js built-in font renderer for fonts that fail to load (i.e. are rejected by the sanitizer). One caveat here is that this only works for the Font Loading API, since it's easy to handle errors in that case[3].
The solution implemented in this patch does *not* in any way delay the loading of valid fonts, which was the problem with my previous attempt at a solution, and will only require a bit of extra work/waiting for those fonts that actually fail to load.
*Please note:* This patch doesn't fix any of the underlying PDF.js font conversion bugs that's responsible for creating corrupt font files, however it does *improve* rendering in a number of cases; refer to this possibly incomplete list:
[Bug 1524888](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1524888)
Issue 10175
Issue 10232
---
[1] Usually because the PDF.js font conversion code wasn't able to parse the font file correctly.
[2] Glyphs fell back to some default font, which while not accurate was more useful than the current state.
[3] Furthermore I'm not sure how to implement this generally, assuming that's even possible, and don't really have time/interest to look into it either.
pdf.js had a problem when copying characters on supplementary planes
(0xPPXXXX where PP is nonzero). This is because certain methods of
PartialEvaluator use classic String.fromCharCode instead of ES6's
String.fromCodePoint.
Despite the fact that readToUnicode method *tried* to parse out-of-UCS2
code points by parsing UTF-16BE, it was inadequate because
String.fromCharCode only supports UCS-2 range of Unicode.
