Note that we must append the textLayer to the DOM *before* enabling the `highlighter` and `accessibilityManager`, to avoid breaking e.g. a pending searching operation.
The least invasive solution, that I was able to come up with, is to introduce a new `TextLayerBuilder` callback-function for this purpose.
After PR 17177 the interface of `XfaLayerBuilder` is now inconsistent, since whether or not we directly append the xfaLayer to the DOM now depends on the rendering intent.
Looking at the `PDFThumbnailView.setPageLabel` method you'll see that we update e.g. the "aria-label" of the thumbnail-image for documents that contain (valid) pageLabels.
This isn't done in `PDFPageView`, which seems inconsistent, hence this patch.
This patch changes almost all viewer-components[1] to use "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" for localization, which means that in many cases we no longer need to pass around the `L10n`-instance any more.
One part of the code-base where the `L10n`-instance is still being used "directly" is the AnnotationEditors, however while it might be possible to convert (most of) that code as well that's not attempted in this patch.
---
[1] The one exception is the `PDFDocumentProperties` dialog, since the way it's currently implemented makes that less straightforward to fix without a lot of code changes.
*Please note:* These changes only affect the GENERIC build, since `NullL10n` is only a stub elsewhere (see PR 17135).
After the changes in PR 17115, which modernized and improved l10n-handling, the `NullL10n`-implementation is no longer a good fallback for the "proper" `L10n`-classes.
To improve this situation, especially for the *standalone* viewer-components, this patch makes the following changes:
- Let the `NullL10n`-implementation extend an actual `L10n`-class, which is constant and lazily initialized, to ensure that it works *exactly* like the "proper" ones.
- Automatically bundle the "en-US" l10n-strings in the build, via the pre-processor, such that we don't need to remember to manually update them.
- Ensure that the *standalone* viewer-components register their DOM-elements for translation, similar to the default viewer, since this will allow future code improvements by using "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" in most (if not all) parts of the viewer.
- Remove the `NullL10n` from the `AnnotationLayer`, to avoid affecting bundle size too much.
For third-party users that access the `AnnotationLayer`, as exposed in the main PDF.js library, they'll now need to *manually* register it for translation. (However, the *standalone* viewer-components still works given the point above.)
- For the generic viewer we use @fluent/dom and @fluent/bundle
- For the builtin pdf viewer in Firefox, we set a localization url
and then we rely on document.l10n which is a DOMLocalization object.
Given that this is accessed multiple times per page in the viewer, that leads to a number of (strictly speaking unneeded) function calls and allocated Objects for each invocation. By converting `layerProperties` to a, lazily initialized, Object we can avoid this.
This fixes invalid type references (either due to invalid paths for the
import or missing imports) in the JS doc, as well as some missing or
invalid parameter names for @param annotations.
Given that the `useOnlyCssZoom` option is essentially just a special-case of the `maxCanvasPixels` functionality, we can combine the two options in order to simplify the overall implementation.
Note that the `useOnlyCssZoom` functionality was only ever used, by default, in the PDF Viewer for the B2G/FirefoxOS project (which was abandoned years ago).
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).
- Modify the text and background colors in popup to fit a11y requirements
- Add a backdrop filter on clickable areas in using a svg filter mapping
canvas colors to Highlight and HighlightText ones.
While it's slightly difficult to trigger in practice, unless the `defaultZoomDelay`-value is increased, it's currently possible to generate thumbnails from *partially* rendered pages when doing *temporary* CSS-only zooming.
We shouldn't dispatch a "pagerendered"-event when doing *temporary* CSS-only zooming, but simply wait until the actual rendering is done.
While I don't believe that this regression has caused any actual bugs, dispatching *duplicate* events is nonetheless inconsistent and should be fixed.
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.
Currently if you e.g. enable the `useOnlyCssZoom` option rendering may no longer finish as intended. To reproduce:
- Enable the `useOnlyCssZoom` option.
- Load https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/files/1522715/wuppertal_2012.pdf (in the development viewer).
- When rendering starts, *immediately* change the zoom-level.
In this case the document will never finish rendering, since the `postponeDrawing`-functionality will (here incorrectly) abort rendering and with CSS-only zooming rendering is only expected to happen once per page.
To fix this we'll simply ignore any `drawingDelay` when CSS-only zooming is used (regardless if it's triggered via the option or the zoom-level being very large).
Currently the `zoomLayer` isn't rotated correctly in all cases. To reproduce:
- Load https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/files/1522715/wuppertal_2012.pdf
- Let the document render.
- Rotate the document *four* times, such that the original rotation is restored.
The easiest solution, as far as I can tell, is that we always set the `transform` just as we did (for years) prior to the changes in PR 15812.
The idea is to apply an overall filter on each page: the main advantage
is to have some filtered images which could help to make them visible for
some users.
This further extends the web-specific import maps introduced in PR 16009, to allow removing *most* of the build-time `require` statements from the viewer. The few remaining ones are fallbacks used for the COMPONENTS respectively the `legacy` GENERIC builds.
*Unfortunately I missed this during testing/reviewing of PR 15992.*
With the changes in PR 15992 we're now only adding the `loadingIcon`-class when rendering is actually `RUNNING`, in order to improve overall performance.
However when resetting the page, i.e. the `INITIAL` state, we also need to remove the `loadingIcon` completely. Without this patch if you scroll through a document where the pages don't load instantaneously, see e.g. issue 2504, we'll leave the `loadingIcon`-class attached to pages that have had their rendering cancelled *and* also been evicted from the `PDFPageViewBuffer`-instance.
This way we don't have a lot of useless divs and we let the css engine handle the
creation/destruction of the :after pseudo-element.
It'll help to slightly improve performance when zooming.
When a css variable is update in a node then all the children under this
node are updated.
In order to avoid to update all the UI when a page is rescaling, this
patch moves the --scale-factor from the :root to the viewer container.
After the changes in PR 15812 we'll now *intermittently* display completely black canvases during zooming. To reproduce this, try switching to wrapped-scrolling and zoom in/out very quickly using either the mouse-wheel or pinching.
This tweaks a few name that originated in PR 15812, to improve overall consistency:
- Use the `drawingDelay` parameter-name in all methods that accept a delay.
- Use the `postponeDrawing` variable-name in all relevant methods.
Given that we only render one page at a time, this will lead to only *one* page-loadingIcon being displayed at a time even if multiple pages are visible in the viewer. However, this will make it clearer which page is the currently parsing/rendering one.
To simplify toggling of the page-loadingIcon visibility, the existing `PDFPageView.renderingState` is changed into a getter/setter-pair with the latter also handling the page-loadingIcon state.
An additional benefit of these changes is that the `PDFViewer` no longer needs to handling toggling of page-loadingIcon visibility during rendering, since there can only ever be *one* page rendering.
Finally, this may also simplify future changes w.r.t. page-loadingIcon visibility toggling (using e.g. a show-timeout).
The rotation-caching added in PR 15812 completely breaks initialization of PDF documents with varying page sizes, causing all pages to wrongly get the same size; see e.g. `sizes.pdf` from the test-suite.
To fix that without having to e.g. add a new parameter, which feels error prone, this patch changes the `PDFPageView.#setDimensions` method to completely ignore the rotation-caching until the `setPdfPage`-method has been called.
Right now, the visible pages are redrawn for each scale change.
Consequently, zooming with mouse wheel or in pinching can be pretty janky
(even on a desktop machine but with a hdpi screen).
So the main idea in this patch is to draw the visible pages only once zooming
is finished.
After the changes in PR 15829 the `loadingIconDiv` is no longer always visible when it should be, specifically in the case where we cancel and re-render a partially parsed/rendered page.
To reproduce this, try opening https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/files/1522715/wuppertal_2012.pdf in the viewer and change the zoom level while rendering is ongoing. In this case the `loadingIconDiv` doesn't actually become visible, despite being present in the DOM, since it's no longer at the end of the page-div.
I don't know to what extent this renders PR 15829 "pointless", however we're not repeatedly re-creating and re-inserting the `loadingIconDiv` but rather just *move* the existing element in the DOM.
We'll no longer import the `SimpleLinkService` dependency unconditionally in the file, since it's only used in COMPONENTS-builds.
Furthermore, for the COMPONENTS-builds, we'll create a `SimpleLinkService`-instance only for those layers that actually need it.
Please note that this functionality has never really mattered for the Firefox PDF Viewer, the GENERIC viewer, or even the "simpleviewer"/"singlepageviewer" component-examples. Hence, in practice this means that only the "pageviewer" component-example[1] have ever really utilized this.
Using factories to initialize various layers in the viewer, rather than simply invoking the relevant code directly, seems (at least to me) like a somewhat roundabout way of doing things.
Not only does this lead to more code, both to write and maintain, but since many of the layers have common parameters (e.g. an `AnnotationStorage`-instance) there's also some duplication.
Hence this patch, which removes the `xfaLayerFactory` and instead uses a lookup-function in the `PDFPageView`-class to access the external viewer-properties as necessary.
Note that this should even be an improvement for the "pageviewer" component-example, since most layers will now work by default rather than require manual configuration.
---
[1] In practice we generally suggest using the "simpleviewer", or "singlepageviewer", since it does *most* things out-of-the-box and given that a lot of functionality really require *a viewer* and not just a single page in order to work.
