Without this patch, when using `PDFPageView` directly[1] this CSS variable won't be updated and consequently things won't work as intended.
This is purposely implemented such that when a `PDFPageView`-instance is part of a viewer, we don't repeatedly set the CSS variable for every single page.
---
[1] See e.g. the "pageviewer" example in the `examples/components/` folder.
Even though the code as-is *should* be safe, given that we're using an Object with a `null` prototype, it cannot hurt to change this to a Map to prevent any issues (since we're parsing unknown and potentially unsafe data).
Overall I also think that these changes improve the `parseQueryString` call-sites, since we now have a proper way of checking for the existence of a particular key (and don't have to use `in` which stringifies the keys in the Object).
This patch also changes the default, when no `value` exists, from `null` to an empty string since the use of `decodeURIComponent` currently can modify the value in a somewhat surprising way (at least to me).
Note how `decodeURIComponent(null) === "null"` which is unlikely to be what you actually want, whereas `decodeURIComponent("") === ""` which seems much more helpful.
Prior to PR 13042, when scripting wasn't really possible to use outside of the full viewer, the `enableScripting` option made sense.
However, at this point in time having to both pass in a `PDFScriptingManager`-instance *and* set the `enableScripting`-boolean when creating a `BaseViewer`-instance feels redundant and (mostly) annoying. Hence this patch, which removes the *separate* boolean and always enables scripting when `scriptingManager` is provided.
The relevant "viewer component" examples are also updated (with a comment), but in such a way that scripting support won't just break when used with the current PDF.js releases.
- All the scale factors in for the substitution font were wrong because of different glyph positions between Liberation and the other ones:
- regenerate all the factors
- Text may have polish chars for example and in this case the glyph widths were wrong:
- treat substitution font as a composite one
- add a map glyphIndex to unicode for Liberation in order to generate width array for cid font
- In order to better compute text fields size, use line height with no gaps (and consequently guessed height for text are slightly better in general).
- Fix default background color in fields.
Given that we've over time been reducing the number of `compatibilityParams` in use, there's now few enough left that I think it makes sense to simply inline them directly in the `web/app_options.js` file.
Note that we recently inlined/removed the separate `src/display/api_compatibility.js` file, see PR 13525, and that it (in my opinion) thus makes sense to do the same in the `web/`-folder. This patch will also slightly reduce the size of *built* `web/viewer.js` file, which cannot hurt.
There's no good reason, as far as I can tell, to have `PDFPageView.reset` attempt to cancel `annotationLayer`/`xfaLayer` rendering in one special-case (this is mostly a leftover from older code). Previously cancelling was moved into the separate `PDFPageView.cancelRendering`-method, and by slightly tweaking the conditions there we're able to remove a bit of now unnecessary code from the `PDFPageView.reset`-method.
Originally the `xfaLayer` wasn't implemented in such a way that it supported being removed from the DOM when pages were evicted from the cache, however this limitation was lifted in PR 13427 and the `xfaLayer` should thus be handled similar to e.g. the `annotationLayer`.
In addition to removing the `xfaLayer` from the DOM, this patch *also* implements proper rendering/hiding-handling for it (mirroring the `annotationLayer`-code).
*Please note:* This patch is tagged API-minor just in case[1], since it changes the signatures of a couple of `PDFPageView`-methods to improve readability of the code.
---
[1] Although users are *hopefully* not directly accessing any of the affected methods, and are rather using e.g. `PDFViewer` in which case none of these changes will matter.
- a rectangle can be defined after a field and so from a z-index pov, it's on top of the field, which means that the rectangle avoid to have some mouse events in the fields;
- so this patch just disable pointer events for all elements under svg (included).
Given that Internet Explorer is, since some time now, no longer supported in the PDF.js library this `<meta>` tag can also be removed (added in PR 6374).
- font line height is taken into account by acrobat when it isn't with masterpdfeditor: I extracted a font from a pdf, modified some ascent/descent properties thanks to ttx and the reinjected the font in the pdf: only Acrobat is taken it into account. So in this patch, line heights for some substituted fonts are added.
- it seems that Acrobat is using a line height of 1.2 when the line height in the font is not enough (it's the only way I found to fix correctly bug 1718741).
- don't use flex in wrapper container (which was causing an horizontal overflow in the above bug).
- consequently, the above fixes introduced a lot of small regressions, so in order to see real improvements on reftests, I fixed the regressions in this patch:
- replace margin by padding in some case where padding is a part of a container dimensions;
- remove some flex display: some containers are wrongly sized when rendered;
- set letter-spacing to 0.01px: it helps to be sure that text is not broken because of not enough width in Firefox.
While I don't know if it's technically correct to even do this, it could provide a slightly better out-of-the-box behaviour in browsers that specify (from the PDF.js `l10n`-folder perspective) "incomplete" language codes.
Rather than immediately falling back to English, we'll use a white-list to try and re-write a "partial" language code to a (hopefully) suitable one that matches an existing `l10n`-folder. The disadvantage of this solution is that the list needs to be kept *manually* up-to-date with any changes in the `l10n`-folder, however new locales are added infrequently enough that this should be acceptable.
Fixes 13689 (assuming we actually want/care to do so, otherwise we should just WONTFIX the issue).
- Fix a typo in order to open the pdf in issue #13679
- After fixing the fill default color there wer some regressions because of z-index
and when fixing z-index there were some regressions because of borders
- So fix the borders rendering.
The PDF.js API has only ever supported accessing the original file ID, however the second one that (should) exist in *modified* documents have thus far been completely inaccessible through the API.
That seems like a simple oversight, caused e.g. by the viewer not needing it, since it really shouldn't hurt to provide API-users with the ability to check if a PDF document has been modified since its creation.[1]
Please refer to https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G13.2261661 for additional information.
For an example of how to update existing code to use the new API, please see the changes in the `web/app.js` file included in this patch.
*Please note:* While I'm not sure if we'll ever be able to remove the old `PDFDocumentProxy.fingerprint` getter, given that it's existed since "forever", that probably isn't a big deal given that it's now limited to only `GENERIC`-builds.
---
[1] Although this obviously depends on the PDF software following the specification, by updating the second file ID as intended.
Using `instanceof Object` is generally problematic, since it's not guaranteed to always do the right thing for all Objects.
(I stumbled upon this while working on another patch, when I noticed that the `outlineView` was broken with workers disabled.)
- support paragraph margins, line height, letter spacing, ...
- compute missing dimensions from fields based almost on the dimensions of caption contents.
- it aims to fix#13583;
- fix the switch to breakBefore target;
- force the layout of an unsplittable element on an empty page;
- don't fail when there is horizontal overflow (except in lr-tb);
- handle correctly overflow in the same content area (bug 1717805, bug 1717668);
- fix a typo in radial gradient first argument.
Given that this property is only used with password protected documents, and is consequently document-specific rather than viewer-specific, ensure that `IPDFLinkService.externalLinkEnabled` is actually being reset by `PDFViewerApplication.close`.
To make things less confusing/inconsistent, remove the *undocumented* `externalLinkEnabled` property from the `PDFLinkService` constructor and force it to always be manually set when needed.
- when the CSS line-height property is set to 'normal' then the value depends of the user agent. So use a line height based on the font itself and if for any reasons this value is not available use 1.2 as default.
- it's a partial fix for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1717681.
This patch provides an overall simpler *and* more consistent way of handling the `viewport` parameter during printing of XFA forms, since it's now again guaranteed to always be an instance of `PageViewport`.
Furthermore, for anyone attempting to e.g. implement custom printing of XFA forms this probably cannot hurt either.
Given that the "print"-intent is special, and that we should always fallback to the "display"-intent, let's ensure that the code actually reflects that.
Also, ensure that the method always returns a `Promise` since that's what the documentation says.
The `web/ui_utils.js` file should be usable from basically anywhere in the `web/`-folder, hence it should ideally not have any dependecies on its own and particularily *not* onces that pull in entire (large) factories.
This extends the approach in PRs 12848 and 13606 to also apply to the `xfaLayer`, since otherwise XFA forms will be similarly broken in most non-default scroll/spread modes.
Note that as far as I can tell, this is *not* a regression but rather a bug which has existed since basically "forever".
**In order to reproduce this easily:**
- Open the viewer.
- Set the zoom level to `400%`,
- Search for "expression".
The problem here is that when scrolling matches into view, we're scrolling to the start of the *containing* `textLayer` element rather than the start of the highlighted match itself.[1] When the entire width (or at least most) of the page is visible in the viewer, that doesn't really matter though which is likely why this bug has gone unnoticed for so long.[2]
Given that the highlighted match can be placed anywhere, e.g. even at the very end, within its `textLayer` element it's quite easy to see why the current implementation becomes a problem at higher zoom levels. All of this is then *further* exacerbated by `PDFFindController.scrollMatchIntoView` using a negative left offset, to ensure that the current match has some (visible) context available once scrolled into view.
In order to address this long-standing bug, we'll determine the (left) offset of the `selected` match and use that to modify the final position scrolled to in `PDFFindController.scrollMatchIntoView` such that the match is visible regardless of zoom level.
---
[1] Unfortunately we cannot directly scroll to the `selected` match, since it's not absolutely positioned and changing that would cause other bugs/regressions (note recent patches in that area).
[2] I did actually stumble upon this problem a little while ago, while working on PR 13482, but forgot to look into this again until I saw the new issue.
With the introduction of `PDFScriptingManager._closeCapability` in PR 13074, the pre-existing `PDFScriptingManager._pageEventsReady` boolean essentially became redundant.
Given that you always want to avoid tracking closely related state *separately*, since it's easy to introduce subtle bugs that way, we should just remove `PDFScriptingManager._pageEventsReady` now.
Obviously I *should* have done this already back in PR 13074, sorry about the churn here!
- a checkbox or radio doesn't have to be rescaled when the container is large so give the extra space to the caption to avoid some word wrapping.
- when the caption is on the right, then put ui on the left as first element and so remove flex:row-reverse stuff.
- some elements weren't displayed because their rotation angle was not taken into account;
- fix box model (XFA concept):
- remove use of outline;
- position correctly border which isn't part of box dimensions;
- fix margins issues (see issue #13474).
- move border on button instead of having it on wrapping div;
This code was added in PR 3968, apparently in order to fix scrolling of search results in HiDPI-mode.
However, after PR 4570 nothing is setting these `dataset`-properties any more and this is thus dead code which should be removed. (If that change had broken scrolling of search results in HiDPI-mode, you'd really expect that it'd been reported and fixed a long time ago.)
I missed this during review, since some of the changes in `web/pdf_print_service.js` broke printing.
Also, as part of these changes the patch replaces what looks like unnecessary `setAttribute` usage with "regular" `className` assignment and finally updates a couple of the CSS-rules to be more consistent.
- I thought it was possible to rely on browser layout engine to handle layout stuff but it isn't possible
- mainly because when a contentArea overflows, we must continue to layout in the next contentArea
- when no more contentArea is available then we must go to the next page...
- we must handle breakBefore and breakAfter which allows to "break" the layout to go to the next container
- Sometimes some containers don't provide their dimensions so we must compute them in order to know where to put
them in their parents but to compute those dimensions we need to layout the container itself...
- See top of file layout.js for more explanations about layout.
- fix few bugs in other places I met during my work on layout.
This patch fixes the referenced bugs/issues, in a way that won't interfere with keyboard users, assuming that we actually want to fix these old bugs/issues. (If not, we should close them as WONTFIX.)
After PR 13117 it's now (finally) possible for *different* build targets to specify individual options/preferences, and we can utilize that to only expose the `renderer`-preference in builds where `SVGGraphics` is actually defined.
Note that for e.g. `MOZCENTRAL`-builds, trying to enable SVG-rendering will throw immediately and the preference thus doesn't make sense to include there.
Also, update the dummy `SVGGraphics` to use a class, tweak the `PDFJSDev`-check in `src/display/svg.js` to agree fully with the option/preference, and remove an unnecessary `eslint-disable`.
Reasons for the removal include:
- This functionality was always somewhat experimental and has never been enabled by default, partly because of worries about rendering bugs caused by e.g. bad/outdated graphics drivers.
- After the initial implementation, in PR 4286 (back in 2014), no additional functionality has been added to the WebGL implementation.
- The vast majority of all documents do not benefit from WebGL rendering, since only a couple of *specific* features are supported (e.g. some Soft Masks and Patterns).
- There is, and has always been, *zero* test-coverage for the WebGL implementation.
- Overall performance, in the PDF.js library, has improved since the experimental WebGL implementation was added.
Rather than shipping unused *and* untested code, it seems reasonable to simply remove the WebGL implementation for now; thanks to version control it's always possible to bring back the code should the need ever arise.
This functionality was originally implemented in PR 7029; however it's not, nor has it ever been, used as far as I can tell.[1]
Note in particular that the default viewer does not expose either a preference or even an option with which `disableCanvasToImageConversion` can be toggled, and source-code modification is thus required.
Furthermore, note also that we have multiple other instances of `canvas`-data accesses in both the `src/display/canvas.js` and `src/display/text_layer.js` files. If any of those are blocked, by e.g. browser settings, there will be outright rendering bugs and non-working thumbnails thus seem like a very small issue in the grand scheme of things; hence why I'm suggesting that we remove the unused `disableCanvasToImageConversion` functionality.
---
[1] For the Tor use-case mentioned in issue 7026, I *believe* that the solution was to white-list `canvas`-data accesses for its built-in PDF Viewer.
- app.alert and few other function can use an object as parameter ({cMsg: ...});
- support app.alert with a question and a yes/no answer;
- update field siblings when one is changed in an action;
- stop calculation if calculate is set to false in the middle of calculations;
- get a boolean for checkboxes when they've been set through annotationStorage instead of a string.
Also, removes a couple of unnecessary local variables in the `Stepper.breakIt` method.
Finally, this patch also disables the ESLint `no-var` rule, in preparation for the next patch, for a couple of data-structures that need to remain globally available.
Given that both the textLayer rendering *and* the structTree parsing is asynchronous, it's possible that we'll attempt to insert the structTree in a removed page. While there's thankfully no outright breakage caused by this, it will nonetheless lead to errors being printed in the console and we should obviously avoid this.
To reproduce this bug (without the patch), open http://localhost:8888/web/viewer.html?file=/test/pdfs/pdf.pdf#disableStream=true&disableAutoFetch=true and scroll *very quickly* through the document and notice the following error being (intermittently) printed in the console:
```
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: can't access property "appendChild", this.canvas is undefined
```
