Based on these results, there's no significant performance regression from using standard classes and this patch should thus be OK.
- `FontFlags`, is used in both `src/core/fonts.js` and `src/core/evaluator.js`.
- `getFontType`, same as the above.
- `MacStandardGlyphOrdering`, is a fairly large data-structure and `src/core/fonts.js` is already a *very* large file.
- `recoverGlyphName`, a dependency of `type1FontGlyphMapping`; please see below.
- `SEAC_ANALYSIS_ENABLED`, is used by both `Type1Font`, `CFFFont`, and unit-tests; please see below.
- `type1FontGlyphMapping`, is used by both `Type1Font` and `CFFFont` which a later patch will move to their own files.
- Improve chunking in order to fix some bugs where the spaces aren't here:
* track the last position where a glyph has been drawn;
* when a new glyph (first glyph in a chunk) is added then compare its position with the last saved one and add a space or break:
- there are multiple ways to move the glyphs and to avoid to have to deal with all the different possibilities it's a way easier to just compare positions;
- and so there is now one function (i.e. "compareWithLastPosition") where all the job is done.
- Add some breaks in order to get lines;
- Remove the multiple whites spaces:
* some spaces were filled with several whites spaces and so it makes harder to find some sequences of words using the search tool;
* other pdf readers replace spaces by one white space.
Update src/core/evaluator.js

First of all, while it should be very unlikely that the /ID-entry is an *indirect* object, note how we're using `Dict.get` when parsing it e.g. in `PDFDocument.fingerprint`. Hence we definitely should be consistent here, since if the /ID-entry is an *indirect* object the existing code in `src/core/writer.js` would already fail.
Secondly, to fix the referenced issue, we also need to check that the /ID-entry actually is an Array before attempting to access its contents in `src/core/writer.js`.
*Drive-by change:* In the `xrefInfo` object passed to the `incrementalUpdate` function, re-name the `encrypt` property to `encryptRef` since its data is fetched using `Dict.getRaw` (given the names of the other properties fetched similarly).
- Use `PDFManager.ensureDoc`, rather than `PDFManager.ensure`, in a couple of spots in the code. If there exists a short-hand format, we should obviously use it whenever possible.
- Fix a unit-test helper, to account for the previous changes. (Also, converts a function to be `async` instead.)
- Add one more exists-check in `PDFDocument.loadXfaFonts`, which I missed to suggest in PR 13146, to prevent any possible errors if the method is ever called in a situation where it shouldn't be.
Also, print a warning if the actual font-loading fails since that could help future debugging. (Finally, reduce overall indentation in the loop.)
- Slightly unrelated, but make a small tweak of a comment in `src/core/fonts.js` to reduce possible confusion.
- Different fonts can be used in xfa and some of them are embedded in the pdf.
- Load all the fonts in window.document.

There is no asynchronous code involved here, so we can get rid of all
done callbacks here and simply use the fact that if the function call
ends without failed assertion that the test passed.

With the current implementation of `PDFDocument.hasJSActions`, in the worker-thread, we're not actually handling not-yet-loaded data correctly. This can thus fail in *two* different ways:
- The `PDFDocument.fieldObjects` getter (and its helper method), while it may *return* a Promise, still fetches all of its data synchronously and it can thus throw a `MissingDataException` during parsing.
- The `Catalog.jsActions` getter, which is completely synchronous, can obviously throw a `MissingDataException` during parsing.
If either of these cases occur currently, the `PDFDocumentProxy.hasJSActions` method in the API can either return a *rejected* Promise (which it never should) or possibly "hang" and never resolve.
*Please note:* While I've not *yet* seen this error in an actual PDF document, it can happen during loading if you're unlucky enough with e.g. the structure of the PDF document and/or the download speed offered by the server.
This patch is thus based on code-inspection *and* on manually throwing a `MissingDataException` on the first access of `Catalog.jsActions` to simulate this situation.
Finally, this patch adds a couple of *API* unit-tests for this (since none existed).
This is first of all consistent with existing API-methods, where we return `null` when the data in question doesn't exist. Secondly, it should also be (slightly) more efficient since there's less dummy-data that we need to transfer between threads.
Finally, this prevents us from adding an empty/unnecessary span to *every* single page even in documents without any structure tree data.
The done callbacks are an outdated mechanism to signal Jasmine that a
unit test is done, mostly in cases where a unit test needed to wait for
an asynchronous operation to complete before doing its assertions.
Nowadays a much better mechanism is in place for that, namely simply
passing an asynchronous function to Jasmine, so we don't need callbacks
anymore (which require more code and may be more difficult to reason
about).
In these particular cases though the done callbacks never had any real
use since nothing asynchronous happens in these places. Synchronous
functions don't need to use done callbacks since Jasmine simply knows
it's done when the function reaches its normal end, so we can safely get
rid of these callbacks. The telltale sign is if the done callback is
used unconditionally at the end of the function.
This is all done in an effort to over time get rid of all callbacks in
the unit test code.
- but don't validate them for now;
- Firefox will display a bar to warn that the signature validation is not supported (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=854315)
- almost all (all ?) pdf readers display signatures;
- validation is done in edge but for now it's behind a pref.
When a PDF is "marked" we now generate a separate DOM that represents
the structure tree from the PDF. This DOM is inserted into the <canvas>
element and allows screen readers to walk the tree and have more
information about headings, images, links, etc. To link the structure
tree DOM (which is empty) to the text layer aria-owns is used. This
required modifying the text layer creation so that marked items are
now tracked.
Currently the `fontName`-property contains an actual /Name-instance, which is a problem given that its fallback value is an empty string; see ca7f546828/src/core/default_appearance.js (L35)
The reason that this is a problem can be seen in ca7f546828/src/core/primitives.js (L30-L34), since an empty string short-circuits the cache. Essentially, in PDF documents, a /Name-instance cannot be empty and the way that the `DefaultAppearanceEvaluator` does things is unfortunately not entirely correct.
Hence the `fontName`-property is changed to instead contain a string, rather than a /Name-instance, which simplifies the code overall.
*Please note:* I'm tagging this patch with "[api-minor]", since PR 12831 is included in the current pre-release (although we're not using the `fontName`-property in the display-layer).
Currently only URL-strings are officially supported by `getDocument`, however at this point in time I cannot really see any compelling reason to not support `URL`-objects as well.
Most likely the reason that we've don't already support `URL`-objects, in `getDocument`, is that historically `URL` wasn't fully implemented across browsers and our old polyfill wasn't perfect; see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL#browser_compatibility
*Please note:* Because of how the `url` parameter is currently handled, there's actually *some* cases where passing a `URL`-object to `getDocument` already works. That, in my opinion, provides additional motivation for supporting `URL`-objects officially, since it makes the API more consistent.
The following is an attempt to summarize the *current* situation, based on the actual code rather than the JSDocs:
- `getDocument("url string")` works and is documented.[1]
- `getDocument({ url: "url string", })` works and is documented.[1]
- `getDocument(new URL(...))` throws immediately, since no supported parameters are found.
- `getDocument({ url: new URL(...), })` actually works even though it's not documented.[1] Originally, when data was fetched on the worker-thread, this would likely have thrown since `URL` isn't clonable.[2]
- `getDocument({ url: { abc: 123, }, })`, or some similarily meaningless input, will be "accepted" by `getDocument` and then throw a `MissingPDFException` when attempting to fetch the bogus data.
With the changes in this patch, not only is `URL`-objects now officially supported and documented when calling `getDocument`, but we'll also do a much better job at actually validating any URL-data passed to `getDocument` (and instead fail early).

[1] In *browsers*, we create a valid URL thus indirectly validating the input. In Node.js environments, on the other hand, no validation is done since obtaining a baseUrl is more difficult (and PDF.js is primarily written for browsers anyway).

- implement few positioning properties: position, width, height, anchor;
- implement font element;
- implement fill element (used by font) and its children (linear, radial, ...);
- font property is inherited from ancestor container (see https://www.pdfa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/XFA-3_3.pdf#page=43) so let CSS handles that stuff;
- in order to reduce the number of properties to set, only set non default properties and put the default in CSS;
- set a background to some containers to be able to see them (will be removed in a future commit).
- add an option to enable XFA rendering if any;
- for now, let the canvas layer: it could be useful to implement XFAF forms (embedded pdf in xml stream for the background and xfa form for the foreground);
- ui elements in template DOM are pretty close to their html counterpart so we generate a fake html DOM from template one:
- it makes easier to translate template properties to html ones;
- it makes faster the creation of the html element in the main thread.
It seems reasonable to place this alongside the *similar* `getFilenameFromUrl` helper function. This way, with the changes in the next patch, we also avoid having to expose the `isDataScheme` function in the API itself and we instead expose `getPdfFilenameFromUrl` in the API (which feels overall more appropriate).
A significant portion of the code-base has now been converted to use `let`/`const`, rather than `var`, hence it should be possible to simply enable the ESLint `no-var` rule globally.
This way we can ensure that new code won't accidentally use `var`, and it also removes the need to manually enable the rule in various folders.
Obviously it makes sense to continue the efforts to replace `var`, but that should probably happen on a file and/or folder basis.
Please note that this patch excludes the following code:
- The `extensions/` folder, since that seemed easiest for now (and I don't know exactly what the support situation is for the Chromium-extension).
- The entire `external/` folder is ignored, since most of it's currently excluded from linting.
For the code that isn't imported from elsewhere (and should be ignored), we should probably (at some point) bring the code up to the same linting/formatting standard as the rest of the code-base.
- Various files in the `test/` folder are ignored, as necessary, since the way that a lot of this code is loaded will require some care (or perhaps larger re-factoring) when removing `var` usage.
