- previously we were trying to adjust lineWidth to have something correct after the current transform is applied but this approach was not correct because finally the pixel is rescaled with the same factors in both directions.
And sometimes those factors must be different (see bug 1753075).
- So the idea of this patch is to apply a scale matrix to the current transform just before setting lineWidth and stroking. This scale matrix is computed in order to ensure that after transform, a pixel will have its two thickness greater than 1.
Soft masks can be enabled/disabled at anytime and at different
points in the save/restore stack. This can lead to
the amount of save/restores becoming unbalanced across the
two canvases. Instead of save/restoring on the temporary canvas
change it so we only track state on the main (suspended canvas).
I was also getting an out balance stack from patterns, so I've also
fixed that and added a warning that will at least show up on chrome.
It would be nice to add this so Firefox at some point too.
Fixes#11328, #14297 and bug 1755507
Unfortunately I don't have a test-case that breaks without this change, however the `stringToPDFString` helper function will fail if anything other than a string is passed to it.
The changes in this patch thus make this code more-or-less identical to that found in the `Catalog.{_collectJavaScript, parseDestDictionary}` methods.
According to the MDN compatibility data, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ReadableStream#browser_compatibility, all browsers that we support have native `ReadableStream` implementations (since quite some time too).
Hence only Node.js is now lagging behind w.r.t. `ReadableStream` support, and its experimental implementation doesn't really help us given the life-span of the LTS releases (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node.js#Releases).
It seems quite unfortunate to bundle a `ReadableStream` polyfill in the `legacy` builds when it's unnecessary in browsers, given its overall size, but fortunately we can avoid that by simply listing `web-streams-polyfill` as a dependency for the `pdfjs-dist` library.
With recent changes, specifically PR 14515 *and* the previous patch, the `createObjectURL` helper function is now only used with the SVG back-end.
All other call-sites, throughout the code-base, are now using `URL.createObjectURL(...)` directly and it no longer seems necessary to keep exposing the helper function in the API.
Finally, the `createObjectURL` helper function is moved into the `src/display/svg.js` file to avoid unnecessarily duplicating this code on both the main- and worker-threads.
This is essentially a *continuation* of PR 7926, where we added support for rejecting the current `PDFDocumentLoadingTask`-promise by throwing inside of the `onPassword`-callback.
Hence the naive way to address [bug 1754421](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1754421) would be to simply throw in the `onPassword`-callback used in the default viewer. However it unfortunately turns out to not work, since the password input/validation is asynchronous, and we thus need another approach.
The simplest solution that I can come up with here, is thus to *extend* the `onPassword`-callback to also reject the current `PDFDocumentLoadingTask`-instance if an `Error` is explicitly passed as the input to the callback function. (This doesn't feel great, but I cannot see a better solution that isn't really complicated.)
This appears to be consistent with the behaviour in both Adobe Reader and PDFium (in Google Chrome); this is essentially the same approach as used for a single decimal point in PR 9827.
Please note that while we "support" some (by now) fairly old browsers, that essentially means that the library (and viewer) will load and that the basic functionality will work as intended.[1]
However, in older browsers, some functionality may not be available and generally we'll ask users to update to a modern browser when bugs (specific to old browsers) are reported.[2]
There's always a question of just how old browsers the PDF.js contributors can realistically support, and here I'm suggesting that we place the cut-off point at approximately *three* years.
With that in mind, this patch updates the *minimum* supported browsers (and environments) as follows:
- Chrome 73, which was released on 2019-03-12; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome_version_history
- Firefox ESR (as before); see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar
- Safari 12.1, which was released on 2019-03-25; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safari_version_history#Safari_12
- Node.js 12, which was release on 2019-04-23 (and will soon reach EOL); see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node.js#Releases

[1] Assuming a `legacy`-build is being used, of course.
[2] In general it's never a good idea to use an old/outdated browser, since those may contain *known* security vulnerabilities.
With these changes, we'll now *always* replace all whitespaces with standard spaces (0x20). This behaviour is already, since many years, the default in both the viewer and the browser-tests.
- it aims to fix#14502 and bug 1721335;
- Acrobat and Pdfium do the same;
- it'll avoid to have truncated data when printed;
- change the factor to compute font size in using field height: lineHeight = 1.35*fontSize
- this is the value used by Acrobat.
- in order to not have truncated strings on the bottom, add few basic metrics for standard fonts.
This allows us to remove the manually implemented `structuredClone` polyfill, thus reducing the maintenance burden for the `LoopbackPort` class; refer to https://github.com/zloirock/core-js#structuredclone
*Please note:* While `structuredClone` support landed already in Firefox 94, Google Chrome only added it in version 98 (currently in Beta). However, given that the `LoopbackPort` will only be used together with *fake workers* in browsers this shouldn't be too much of a problem.[1]
For Node.js environments, where *fake workers* are unfortunately necessary, using a `legacy/`-build is already required which thus guarantees that the `structuredClone` polyfill is available.
Also, the patch updates core-js to the latest version since that one includes `structuredClone` improvements; please see https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/releases/tag/v3.20.3

[1] Given that we only support browsers with proper worker support, if *fake workers* are being used that essentially indicates a configuration problem/error.
- it aims to fix#14497;
- previously, only rotations with an angle 0, 90, 180 or 270 were taken into account;
- so generalize to any angle but keep the fast path for 0, 90, ... because they're likely more common than anything else.
This commit fixes Bug 1743245 (Grided PDF file lines rendered too thick) which was created by a fix for #12868 .
The lineWidth was set to round(1 * this._combinedScaleFactor) when the pixel is drawn as a parallelorgam with a height <1. This fix changes this to floor(1*this._combinedScaleFactor) .
This change shows a visual result comparable to Chrome and Acrobat.
Regarding the last PR 3 statements in canvas.js are affected and will change with this commit (stroke and paintChar).
renaming the reference files to naming comvention
Given that the regular expression has already become more complex (after the initial patch adding it), it seems to me that it probably cannot hurt to add a global cache to reduce unnecessary re-parsing.
Obviously the `Glyph`-instances are being cached *per* font, however in most documents multiple fonts are being used and in practice there's very often a fair amount of overlap between the /ToUnicode-data in different fonts[1].
Consider for example loading and rendering the entire `tracemonkey.pdf` document (from the test-suite), which isn't a particularily large document. In that case the `getCharUnicodeCategory` function is being called a total of `601` times, however there's only `106` *unique* unicode-chars being checked.
*Please note:* In practice I suppose that this won't have a *huge* effect on overall performance, however given the relative simplicity of this patch I figured that it'd not hurt to submit it for review.

- it aims to fix issue #14307;
- this event has been added recently in Firefox and we can now use it;
- fix few bugs in aform.js or in annotation_layer.js;
- add some integration tests to test keystroke events (see `AFSpecial_Keystroke`);
- make dispatchEvent in the quickjs sandbox async.
- it aims to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1749563;
- use some helper functions to get (u|i)int** values in buffer: it helps to have a clearer code;
- in composite glyphes the translations values with a transformations are signed so consequently get some int8 instead of uint8;
- add few TODOs.
Please refer to https://www.pdfa.org/norm-refs/Type1Fonts.pdf#page=15 for the expected format for the /CharStrings entries.
In the referenced PDF document the /CharStrings are missing the expected end-token, which causes us to swallow the start of the next glyph name.
After the changes in PR 14428 we can *directly*, and more efficiently, handle whitespace conversion in `PartialEvaluator.getTextContent` when the `normalizeWhitespace` option is being used.
This way we no longer need a separate helper function for this, and can avoid having to (again) iterate through the text and checking each character. Finally, this also removes the need for using a regular expression on e.g. all non-ASCII text.
Inlining the checks should be a *tiny bit* more efficient, since it avoids have to make *unconditional* function calls in these fairly commonly used helper functions.
This patch implements this by looking for the UTF-8 BOM, i.e. `\xEF\xBB\xBF`, in order to determine the encoding.[1]
The actual conversion is done using the `TextDecoder` interface, which should be available in all environments/browsers that we support; please see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/TextDecoder#browser_compatibility
---
[1] Assuming that everything lacking a UTF-16 BOM would have to be UTF-8 encoded really doesn't seem correct.
In corrupt PDF documents Type3 fonts may introduce circular dependencies, thus resulting in the affected font(s) never loading and parsing/rendering never completing.
Note that I've not seen any real-world examples of this kind of font corruption, but the attached PDF document was rather found in https://github.com/pdf-association/safedocs/tree/main/Miscellaneous%20Targeted%20Test%20PDFs
*Please note:* That repository contains a number of reduced test-cases that are specifically intended to test interoperability (between PDF viewer) and parsing/rendering for various kinds of strange/corrupt PDF documents.
Some of the test-cases found there may thus not make sense to try and "fix" upfront, in my opinion, unless the problems are also found in real-world PDF documents.
While `PageViewport` apparently makes sense in TypeScript environments, given that it's being returned by the `PDFPageProxy.getViewport`-method in the API, we really don't want to extend the *public* API by simply exporting the class directly in `src/pdf.js` since it should never be called/initialized manually.
Hence we follow the same pattern as in PR 14013, and also extend the API unit-tests to ensure that `PDFPageProxy.getViewport` always returns a `PageViewport`-instance as expected.
This prevents the `BaseSVGFactory.create`-method from throwing, and thus preventing any remaining Annotations (on the page) from rendering in corrupt documents.
This helper function has never been used in e.g. the worker-thread, hence its placement in `src/shared/util.js` led to a *small* amount of unnecessary duplication.
After the previous patches this helper function is now *only* used in the viewer, hence it no longer seems necessary to expose it through the official API.
*Please note:* It seems somewhat unlikely that third-party users were relying *directly* on this helper function, which is why it's not being exported as part of the viewer components. (If necessary, we can always change this later on.)
As part of the changes/improvement in PR 14092, we're no longer using the `addLinkAttributes` directly in e.g. the AnnotationLayer-code.

The patch in PR 14335 *essentially* re-introduced the old code from before PR 3848, however looking at this code a bit closer it should be possible to simplify it by making the method asynchronous.
While this method is currently only used as a *fallback* in corrupt documents, the way that `MissingDataException`s are handled is less than ideal. Note that if a `MissingDataException` is thrown, we're forced to re-parse the *entire* /Pages tree[1].
With this method now being asynchronous, we're able to handle fetching of References in a *much* easier/nicer way than before without having to throw `MissingDataException`s and re-parse anything.
These changes also let us simplify the call-site slightly, by calling the method *directly* instead of using the `PDFManager`-instance (since again it will no longer throw `MissingDataException`s).
Furthermore, this patch contains the following other changes:
- Reduce unnecessary duplication in the various `catch` handlers throughout the method, by simply moving the `XRefEntryException` handling into the `addPageError` helper function instead.
- Move the "circular references"-check to occur slightly earlier, since there's obviously no point in asynchronously fetching data just to then throw an Error *immediately* afterwards.
---
[1] Imagine e.g. a thousand page document, where there's a `MissingDataException` thrown when fetching/parsing page 900.
