Given that the `PDFDocumentLoadingTask.destroy()`-method is documented as being asynchronous, you thus need to await its completion before attempting to load a new PDF document when using the global `workerPort`.
If you don't await destruction as intended then a new `getDocument`-call can remain pending indefinitely, without any kind of indication of the problem, as shown in the issue.
In order to improve the current situation, without unnecessarily complicating the API-implementation, we'll now throw during the `getDocument`-call if the global `workerPort` is in the process of being destroyed.
This part of the code-base has apparently never been covered by any tests, hence the patch adds unit-tests for both the *correct* usage (awaiting destruction) as well as the specific case outlined in the issue.
This method is very old, however with the exception of the auto-print hack (when scripting is disabled) in the viewer it's never actually been used.
Most likely the idea with `PDFDocumentProxy.getJavaScript` was that it'd be useful if scripting support was added, however it turned out that it was a bit too simplistic and instead a number of new methods were added for the scripting use-cases.
Currently we accidentally accept `cMapUrl` and `standardFontDataUrl` parameters that are empty strings or `null`, since e.g. `new URL(null, document.baseURI)` doesn't throw, when validating the `useWorkerFetch` parameter via the `isValidFetchUrl` helper function.
Please note that we are currently failing gracefully in this case, as intended, however the warning-messages printed in the console are perhaps less helpful without this patch.
By leveraging import maps we can get rid of *most* of the remaining `require`-calls in the `src/display/`-folder, since we should strive to use modern `import`-statements wherever possible.
The only remaining cases are Node.js-specific dependencies, since those seem very difficult to convert unless we start producing a bundle *specifically* for Node.js environments.
With the changes in the previous patch the `isNodeJS`-helper no longer needs to live in its own file, which helps get rid of a closure in the *built* files.
Given that the PDF.js library has never officially supported/documented that binary data can be provided as a `Buffer`, and that it's been explicitly deprecated in *four* releases, it seems reasonable that we outright reject such data instead (to reduce the amount of Node.js specific code-paths).
We've now been throwing an Error in *three* releases if the `canvasFactory` option is provided, hence it ought to be fine to stop doing that and simply ignore the option instead.
Rather than having to *manually* determine the potential `transfers` at various spots in the API, we can let the `AnnotationStorage.serializable` getter include this.
To further simplify things, we can also let the `serializable` getter compute and include the `hash`-string as well.
This is something that I completely overlooked during review of PR 16593, since the idea is (obviously) that the viewer-components should be usable as-is without the user needing to manually pass in any *additional* parameters.
To support this we can very easily expose the current `FilterFactory`-instance on the `PDFPageProxy`-class[1], and if needed initialize the highlight-filters when initializing the page (again limited to the viewer-components).
In order to minimize the size the of a saved pdf, we generate only one
image and use a reference in each annotation using it.
When printing, it's slightly different since we have to render each page
independantly but we use the same image within a page.
The existing unit-test doesn't work as intended, since the page never actually renders. Note how `cleanup` is *not* allowed to run when parsing and/or rendering is ongoing, however an (old) incorrect condition could prevent rendering from ever starting.
This is very old code, which has been slightly re-factored a couple of times (many years ago), however this doesn't appear to affect e.g. the default viewer since the incorrect behaviour seem highly dependent on "unlucky" timing.
Note also how at the start of the `PDFPageProxy.prototype.render`-method we purposely cancel any pending `cleanup`-call, to prevent unnecessary re-parsing for multiple sequential `render`-calls.
Finally, avoid running `cleanup` when document/page destruction has already started since it's pointless in that case.
Given that this API method isn't used anywhere within the PDF.js library itself, except for the unit-tests, we can avoid including what's effectively dead code in e.g. the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer.
Now that https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687 has landed in Firefox, we're able to use worker-modules during development :-)
This removes the final piece of SystemJS usage from the PDF.js library, thus allowing a fair bit of clean-up, and we now use *only* native `import`/`export` statements everywhere in development mode.
Some arabic chars like \ufe94 could be searched in a pdf, hence it must be normalized
when creating the search query. So to avoid to duplicate the normalization code,
everything is moved in the find controller.
The previous code to normalize text was using NFKC but with a hardcoded map, hence it
has been replaced by the use of normalize("NFKC") (it helps to reduce the bundle size
by 30kb).
In playing with this \ufe94 char, I noticed that the bidi algorithm wasn't taking into
account some RTL unicode ranges, the generated font wasn't embedding the mapping this
char and the unicode ranges in the OS/2 table weren't up-to-date.
When normalized some chars can be replaced by several ones and it induced to have
some extra chars in the text layer. To avoid any regression, when copying some text
from the text layer, a copied string is normalized (NFKC) before being put in the
clipboard (it works like this in either Acrobat or Chrome).
This *special* build-target is very old, and was introduced with the first pre-processor that only uses comments to enable/disable code.
When the new pre-processor was added `PRODUCTION` effectively became redundant, at least in JavaScript code, since `typeof PDFJSDev === "undefined"` checks now do the same thing.
This patch proposes that we remove `PRODUCTION` from the JavaScript code, since that simplifies the conditions and thus improves readability in many cases.
*Please note:* There's not, nor has there ever been, any gulp-task that set `PRODUCTION = false` during building.
Apparently the `structuredClone` polyfill doesn't handle transfers correctly, and `DOMException`s may thus be thrown. This is particularly problematical in Node.js environments, where that exception (obviously) isn't available.
To work-around these issues we'll simply ignore any transfers in `legacy`-builds, since those *may* use the `structuredClone` polyfill. This will obviously lead to slightly higher memory usage in those builds, however this really only affects Node.js environments. (Browsers are only affected if workers are disabled, however that's never been an officially recommended/supported configuration.)
*Please note:* This parameter has never been used within the PDF.js library/viewer itself, and it was only ever added for backwards compatibility reasons.
This parameter was added in PR 7475, over six years ago, to try and optionally maintain the previous *default* text-extraction behaviour.
However as part of the general text-extraction improvements in PR 13257, almost two years ago, the `disableCombineTextItems` functionality was accidentally "broken" in various ways. Note how the only (very basic) unit-test was updated in a way that doesn't really make sense, since generally speaking you'd expect that using the option should result in *more* (or at least the same number of) text-items. Furthermore there's also the recent issue 16209, where the option causes almost all textContent to be concatenated together.
Hence this patch proposes that we simply remove the `disableCombineTextItems` option since it's essentially unused/untested functionality, as evident from the fact that it took almost two years for someone to notice that it's broken.
Given that this functionality only applies in the viewer, when `PDFBug` is being enabled and used, it can't hurt to slightly reduce the size of this code.
The `pageColors`-option was removed from the `CanvasGraphics`-constructor in PR 16075, hence the code in the API no longer needs to pass in that option; this is something that I missed during review.
