The only parameter that we actually need here is the `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance, since the others are not necessary.
- The `url` parameter, as passed to the `getDocument` function in the API, is simply being ignored; see 2d87a2eb1c/src/display/api.js (L447-L458)
- The `length` parameter, as passed to the `getDocument` function in the API, is always being overwritten; see 2d87a2eb1c/src/display/api.js (L519-L525)
Until PR 12563 is deemed safe to land, I'd still like to be able to use worker-modules in the viewer during local development.
Hence this patch which *temporarily* adds a new `workerModules` hash-parameter, only available in non-PRODUCTION mode, that allows using worker-modules in the development viewer.
To enable this functionality, simply use http://localhost:8888/web/viewer.html#workerModules=true
The initial CMap support was added in PR 4259 using the "raw" Adobe files, however they were quickly deemed to be unnecessarily large. As a result PR 4470 introduced the more compact "binary" CMap format, with both of those PRs being included in the very same release (version `0.8.1334`) .
Please note that we've thus never shipped anything *except* the "binary" CMap files with the PDF library, and furthermore note that we've not even once updated the CMap files since they were originally added almost nine years ago.
Requiring users to remember that `cMapPacked = true` is necessary, in addition to setting the `cMapUrl` parameter, in order for CMap loading to work feels like a less than ideal API.
Hence this patch, which suggests that we simply let `cMapPacked` default to `true` now.
Until just recently the only existing `Path2D` polyfill didn't have support for Node.js and/or the `node-canvas` package. Given that this was just fixed, in the latest version, we can now finally remove our inline-checks at the relevant call-sites; please also see https://github.com/nilzona/path2d-polyfill#usage-with-node-canvas
There's really no need for these "complicated" default value assignments, since `GlobalWorkerOptions` is a local variable at this point, and this is rather a case of too much copy-and-paste.
Note that years ago, when all options were set using a global `PDFJS` object, it's possible that options had been set (from the outside) *before* the object had been properly initialized; see e.g. a89071bdef/src/display/global.js
In general it's always recommended to pass a *parameter object* when calling the `getDocument`-function in the API, since that's the only way to provide additional options, and the fact that it also accepts a URL or TypedArray directly is now mostly for backwards compatibility reasons.
Unfortunately we cannot really remove this, since that code has existed since "forever", however we can limit it to only the GENERIC build to avoid completely unnecessary checks in e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer.
Finally, note that the default-viewer always provides a *parameter object* when calling the `getDocument`-function and it's thus completely unaffected by these changes.
- Use a `URL`-instance directly, since it's by definition an absolute URL.
- Actually limit the "raw" url-string handling to Node.js environments, as intended.
- Skip the warning, since we're already throwing an Error if the `url`-parameter is invalid.
In general it's recommended to pass a *parameter object* when calling the `getDocument`-function in the API, since that's the only way to provide additional options, and the fact that it also accepts a URL or TypedArray directly is now mostly for backwards compatibility reasons.
However, the `getDocument`-function also accepts a direct `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance which just seems unnecessary.
*Please note:* The `PDFDataRangeTransport`-implementation was added specifically for the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer, however it's most likely not commonly used by any third-party (given that it requires manual PDF-data loading).
Furthermore, the default-viewer always provides a *parameter object* when calling the `getDocument`-function and it's thus completely unaffected by these changes.
This patch removes the recently introduced `transferPdfData` API-option, and simply enables transferring of TypedArray data *by default* instead of copying it. This will help reduce main-thread memory usage, however it will take ownership of the TypedArrays. Currently this only applies to the following cases:
- TypedArrays passed to the `getDocument`-function in the API, in order to open PDF documents from binary data.
- TypedArrays passed to a `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance, used to support custom PDF document fetching/loading (see e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer).
*PLEASE NOTE:* To avoid being affected by this, please simply *copy* any TypedArray data before passing it to either of the functions/methods mentioned above.
Now that we transfer TypedArray data that we previously only copied, we need to be more careful with input validation. Given how the `{IPDFStreamReader, IPDFStreamRangeReader}.read` methods will always return ArrayBuffer data, which is then transferred to the worker-thread[1], the actual TypedArray data passed to the API thus need to have the same exact size as its underlying ArrayBuffer to prevent issues.
Hence we'll check for this and only allow transferring of *safe* TypedArray data, and fallback to simply copying the data just as before. This obviously shouldn't be an issue in the Firefox PDF Viewer, but for the general PDF.js library we need to be more careful here.

[1] See e09ad99973/src/display/api.js (L2492-L2506) respectively e09ad99973/src/display/api.js (L2578-L2590)
Note how in the API we're transferring the PDF data that's fetched over the network[1]:
- f28bf23a31/src/display/api.js (L2467-L2480)
- f28bf23a31/src/display/api.js (L2553-L2564)
To support that functionality we have the `PDFDataTransportStream`, `PDFFetchStream`, `PDFNetworkStream`, and `PDFNodeStream` implementations. Here these stream-implementations vary slightly in how they handle `ArrayBuffer`s internally, w.r.t. transferring or copying the data:
- In `PDFDataTransportStream` we optionally, after PR 15908, allow transferring of the PDF data as provided externally (used e.g. in the Firefox PDF Viewer).
- In `PDFFetchStream` we're currenly always copying the PDF data returned by the Fetch API, which seems unnecessary. As discussed in PR 15908, it'd seem very weird if this sort of browser API didn't allow transferring of the returned data.
- In `PDFNetworkStream` we're already, since many years, transferring the PDF data returned by the `XMLHttpRequest` functionality. Note how the `getArrayBuffer` helper function simply returns an `ArrayBuffer` response as-is.
- In `PDFNodeStream` we're currently copying the PDF data, however this is unfortunately necessary since Node.js returns data as a `Buffer` object[2].
Given that the `PDFNetworkStream` has been, indirectly, supporting transferring of PDF data for years it would seem really strange if this didn't also apply to the `PDFFetchStream`-implementation.
Hence this patch simply enables transferring of PDF data, when accessed using the Fetch API, unconditionally to help reduced main-thread memory usage since the `PDFFetchStream`-implementation is used *by default* in browsers (for the GENERIC build).
---
[1] As opposed to PDF data being provided as e.g. a TypedArray when calling `getDocument` in the API.
[2] This is a "special" Node.js object, see https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html#buffer, which doesn't exist in browsers.
Also, removes the `initialData`-parameter JSDocs for the `getDocument`-function given that this parameter has been completely unused since PR 8982 (over five years ago). Note that the `initialData`-parameter is, and always was, intended to be provided when initializing a `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance.
Given that this is internal functionality, not exposed in the official API, it's not entirely clear (at least to me) why we can't just initialize this directly in `src/display/api.js` instead.
When testing both the development viewer and all the ways in which we run tests, everthing still appears to work just fine with this patch.
This was deprecated in PR 15758 but it's unfortunately quite difficult to tell if third-party users are depending on this, e.g. to implement custom error reporting, and if so to what extent.
However, thanks to the pre-processor we can limit *most* of this code to GENERIC builds which still seem like a worthwhile change.
These changes reduce the bundle size of the Firefox PDF Viewer by 3.8 kB in total.
This was deprecated in PR 15758 and given that it's quite unlikely that any third-party users are relying on this functionality, since it was only ever added to support telemetry reporting in the Firefox PDF Viewer, it should hopefully be fine to remove this fairly quickly.
These changes reduce the bundle size of the Firefox PDF Viewer by 4.5 kB in total.
Given that the Fetch API only supports the http/https protocols, worker-thread fetching of CMaps and Standard-fonts may thus fail in certain cases. To improve the default behaviour we'll now also check that the `cMapUrl` and `standardFontDataUrl` options are appropriate, except in Firefox where this should always work.
Note how, in the scripting initialization in the viewer, we only ever invoke `PDFPageProxy.getJSActions` *once* per page in order to improve overall performance; see a575aa13b9/web/pdf_scripting_manager.js (L372-L375)
Hence it really shouldn't be necessary to cache its result in the API, especially when that is done *manually* rather than using something like `shadow`.
When we're destroying a `PDFPageProxy`-instance, during full document destruction, we'll force-abort any worker-thread parsing of operatorLists. Hence we should make sure that any pending cancel timeout is always aborted, since a later `PDFPageProxy._abortOperatorList` call should always "replace" a previous one.
*Please note:* Technically this was always wrong, but with the changes in PR 15825 it became *ever so slightly* easier to trigger this thanks to the potentially longer timeout.
By moving this code the "pageviewer"-component example will become slightly more usable on its own, it may simplify a future addition of XFA Foreground document support, and finally also serves as preparation for the following patches.
This is done to support upcoming viewer-changes, and in order to prevent third-party users from outright breaking things we'll simply ignore too large values.
It's a follow-up of #14950: some format actions are ran when the document is open
but we must be sure we've everything ready for that, hence we have to run some
named actions before runnig the global format.
In playing with the form, I discovered that the blur event wasn't triggered when
JS called `setFocus` (because in such a case the mouse was never down). So I removed
the mouseState thing to just use the correct commitKey when blur is triggered by a
TAB key.
In order to move the annotations in the DOM to have something which corresponds
to the visual order, we need to have their dimensions/positions which means that
the parent must have some dimensions.
While reviewing recent patches, I couldn't help but noticing that we now have a lot of call-sites that manually access the `PageViewport.viewBox`-property.
Rather than repeating that verbatim all over the code-base, this patch adds a lazily computed and cached getter for this data instead.
This was essentially done only to compensate for the viewer calling `PDFPageProxy.getAnnotations` unconditionally on every annotationLayer-rendering invocation. With the previous patch that's no longer happening, and this API-caching should thus no longer be necessary.
An annotation editor layer can be destroyed when it's invisible, hence some
annotations can have a null parent but when printing/saving or when changing
font size, color, ... of all added annotations (when selected with ctrl+a) we
still need to have some parent properties especially the page dimensions, global
scale factor and global rotation angle.
This patch aims to remove all the references to the parent in the editor instances
except in some cases where an editor should obviously have one.
It fixes#15780.
The main issue is due to the fact that an editor's parent can be null when
we want to serialize it and that lead to an exception which break all the
saving/printing process.
So this incomplete patch fixes only the saving/printing issue but not the
underlying problem (i.e. having a null parent) and doesn't bring that much
complexity, so it should help to uplift it the next Firefox release.
Rather than handling these parameters separately, which is a left-over from back when streaming of textContent was originally added, we can simply pass either data directly to the `TextLayer` and let it handle things accordingly.
Also, improves a few JSDoc comments and `typedef`-imports.
Compared to the recent PR 15722 for the `textLayer` this one should be a (comparatively) much a smaller win overall, since most documents don't have any structTree-data and the required parsing should be cheaper. However, it seems to me that it cannot hurt to improve this nonetheless.
Note that by moving the `structTreeLayer` initialization we remove the need for the "textlayerrendered" event listener, which thus simplifies the code a little bit.
Also, removes the API-caching of the structTree-data since this was basically done to offset the lack of caching in the viewer.
*Please note:* I don't really expect that this is will be an observable change, since virtually all PDF documents already order e.g. /MediaBox and /CropBox entries correctly.
By normalizing boundingBoxes already on the worker-thread, we can be sure that even a corrupt document won't cause issues.
Note how we're passing the `view`-getter to the `PartialEvaluator.getTextContent` method, in order to detect textContent which is outside of the page, hence it makes sense to ensure that it's formatted as expected.
Furthermore, by normalizing this once on the worker-tread we should no longer have to worry about a possibly negative width/height in the `PageViewport` constructor.
Finally, the patch also simplifies the `view`-getter a little bit.
The idea is just to resuse what we got on the first draw.
Now, we only update the scaleX of the different spans and the other values
are dependant of --scale-factor.
Move some properties in the CSS in order to avoid any updates in JS.
The deprecation is included in the current release, i.e. version `3.1.81`, and given the edge-case nature of this option I really don't think that we need to keep it deprecated for multiple releases.
Currently both of the `AnnotationElement` and `KeyboardManager` classes contain *identical* `platform` getters, which seems like unnecessary duplication.
With the pre-processor we can also limit the feature-testing to only GENERIC builds, since `navigator` should always be available in browsers.
Add a deprecation notification for PDFDocumentLoadingTask.onUnsupportedFeature and PDFDocumentProxy.stats
which are likely useless.
The unsupported feature stuff have initially been added in (#4048) in order to be able to display a
warning bar and to help to have some numbers to know how a feature was used.
Those data are no more used in Firefox.
This is very old code, which is unused (by default) in browsers nowadays since the Font Loading API will always be preferred.
For Node.js environments we use the same constant as elsewhere throughout the code-base, and we can also simplify the Firefox-specific check given that the lowest supported version is `102` (as of this writing).
Finally the old TODO is removed, since the general availability of the Font Loading API has made it redundant.
This has never really been used anywhere within the PDF.js library[1], and when streaming of textContent was introduced this parameter was effectively made redundant.
Note that when streaming of textContent is used, all text-layout has already happened by the time that this `timeout`-functionality is actually invoked (thus making it pointless).
While the `timeout`-functionality may still "work" when the textContent is provided upfront, although it's never been used/tested, streaming will generally perform better (in e.g. a viewer setting).
*Please note:* While unrelated here, also removes a now unused property that I forgot in PR 15259.

[1] At least not since the code was moved into its current file, which happened in PR 6619 and landed seven years ago.
This can't be a particularly common feature, since we've supported Optional Content for over two years and this is the very first TilingPattern-case we've seen.
The reason for the issue is that we use the generic `getFilenameFromUrl` helper function, which was originally intended for regular URLs.
For the filenames we're dealing with in FileAttachments, we really only want to strip the path when one exists[1].

[1] See [bug 1230933](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1230933) for an example of such a case.
With modern EcmaScript features, we can define these fields directly instead. Please note that for backwards compatibility purposes they are still public as before, however note that this functionality is *disabled* by default (see the `pdfBug` API option).
Also, we can (slightly) simplify the two loops used in the `toString` method.
These fields were never intended to be public, since modifying them manually would lead to inconsistent state, and with modern EcmaScript features we can now enforce this.
Also, this patch removes a couple of JSDoc comments that we generally don't use.
- For text fields
* when printing, we generate a fake font which contains some widths computed thanks to
an OffscreenCanvas and its method measureText.
In order to avoid to have to layout the glyphs ourselves, we just render all of them
in one call in the showText method in using the system sans-serif/monospace fonts.
* when saving, we continue to create the appearance streams if the fonts contain the char
but when a char is missing, we just set, in the AcroForm dict, the flag /NeedAppearances
to true and remove the appearance stream. This way, we let the different readers handle
the rendering of the strings.
- For FreeText annotations
* when printing, we use the same trick as for text fields.
* there is no need to save an appearance since Acrobat is able to infer one from the
Content entry.
PR 13725 was only intended as a temporary work-around, and it seems that we can now revert that.
- Firefox 102 is the currently maintained ESR-branch, and the PDF.js project only supports the active one.
- Node.js now works, thanks to the `node-canvas` package, and I've confirmed locally that following the STR in issue 13724 generates a correct image.
- When we're editing some annotations, keeping the role="text-box" make them visible
as editable and VoiceOver (Mac) is able to read the contents when they're focused;
- Add an attribute "aria-activedescendant" in order to make the content discoverable
by NVDA on Windows.
Note how we're currently skipping all main-thread cleanup when document destruction has started, but for some reason we're still dispatching the "Cleanup" message.
This seems like a simple oversight, since destruction will already invoke the `BasePdfManager.cleanup` method (on the worker-thread) to fully clear-out all caches.
When a new PDF document is opened in the GENERIC viewer we (obviously) create a new `AnnotationEditorUIManager`-instance, since those are document-specific, and thus we need to ensure that we actually register the `editorTypes` for each one.
Looking at the code on the worker-thread, there doesn't appear to be any particular reason for placing *some* of the properties in a `source`-object when sending them with "GetDocRequest".
As is often the case the explanation for this structure is rather "for historical reasons", since originally we simply sent the `source`-object as-is. Doing that was obviously a bad idea, for a couple of reasons:
- It makes it less clear what is/isn't actually needed on the worker-thread.
- Sending unused properties will unnecessarily increase memory usage.
- The `source`-object may contain unclonable data, which would break the library.
Rather than sending all of these parameters individually and then grouping them together on the worker-thread, we can simply handle that in the API instead.
This patch first of all makes `isOffscreenCanvasSupported` configurable, defaulting to `true` in browsers and `false` in Node.js environments, with a new `getDocument` parameter. While you normally want to use this, in order to improve performance, it should still be possible for users to control it (similar to e.g. `isEvalSupported`).
The specific problem, as reported in issue 14952, is that the SVG back-end doesn't support the new ImageMask data-format that's introduced in PR 14754. In particular:
- When the SVG back-end is used in Node.js environments, this patch will "just work" without the user needing to make any code changes.
- If the SVG back-end is used in browsers, this patch will require that `isOffscreenCanvasSupported: false` is added to the `getDocument`-call.
*Please note:* The referenced issue is the only mention that I can find, in either GitHub or Bugzilla, of "GoToE" actions.
Hence why I've purposely settled for a very simple, and partial, "GoToE" implementation to avoid complicating things initially.[1] In particular, this patch only supports "GoToE" actions that references the /EmbeddedFiles-dict in the PDF document.

[1] Usually I always prefer having *real-world* test-cases to work with, whenever I'm implementing new features.
This is yet another small piece of clean-up of the `FontLoader`-code, since we've not used this `id`-property for anything ever since PR 6571 (which landed almost seven years ago). Furthermore, by default we're also not even using that code-path now since the Font Loading API will always be used when available.
*Please note:* This is tagged `[api-minor]` since it's technically observable from the outside, however no user ought to be directly interacting with these CSS font rules.
Given that Firefox supports *synchronous* font loading, when the Font Loading API isn't being used, there's really no point including code which if called would just throw in the MOZCENTRAL build. (This is safe, since the `FontLoader.isSyncFontLoadingSupported`-getter always return `true` there.)
After the changes in PR 10539 (which landed over three years ago) the `FontLoader.bind` method can only be called with *a single* font at a time, hence the `_prepareFontLoadEvent` method obviously don't need to support multiple fonts any more.
By having just *one* class, and using pre-processor blocks directly in the relevant methods, we reduce the size of this code in the *built* `pdf.js` file.
Originally, when the `BaseFontLoader` abstraction was added in PR 9982, the idea was probably that additional build-targets would get their own implementations. Given that this hasn't happened in the four years since that landed, it doesn't seem meaningful to keep it around.
The existing `loadingContext` class-property can be simplified slightly, since we've not been using the `id`-property on the requests ever since PR 3477 (which landed nine years ago).
Furthermore, by default we're also not even using that code-path now since the Font Loading API will always be used when available.
This patch updates a bunch of older code, that makes conditional function calls, to use optional chaining rather than `if`-blocks.
These mostly mechanical changes reduce the size of the `gulp mozcentral` build by a little over 1 kB.
