- it'll improve the way to resize images: diagonally (in keeping ratio between dimensions)
or horizontally/vertically.
- the resizer was almost invisible in HCM.
- make a resize undoable/redoable.
The existing Node.js-specific polyfills depend on the `node-canvas` package, which has unfortunately (repeatedly) shown to cause trouble for many users. We attempted to improve the situation by listing the relevant packages as `optionalDependencies`, but that didn't seem to really fix the problem.
With this patch the library should be able to load in Node.js-environments even if polyfilling fails, and any errors will instead occur during rendering. Obviously this is *not* a proper solution, since it basically moves the problem to another part of the code-base.
However for certain "simpler" use-cases, such as e.g. text-extraction, these changes should hopefully improve general usability of the PDF.js library in Node.js-environments.
*Please note:* For most PDF documents rendering should still work though, since `DOMMatrix` is *currently* only used with Patterns and `Path2D` only with Type3-fonts and Patterns.
When the flag is set, the appearance has to be generated from the value so it's
useless/meaningless to extract the content from the existing appearance.
When a pdf has /NeedAppearances set to true, the annotation appearance must be
generated from its value and we must take into account the hasOwnCanvas property.
*Please note:* I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this, however that might be more luck than anything else.
In PR 16392 the `incrementalUpdate` function, and all of its various helpers, were made asynchronous. However the call-site in `src/core/worker.js` wasn't updated, which means that we currently reset temporary XRef-entries while saving is ongoing.
By leveraging import maps we can get rid of *most* of the remaining `require`-calls in the `src/display/`-folder, since we should strive to use modern `import`-statements wherever possible.
The only remaining cases are Node.js-specific dependencies, since those seem very difficult to convert unless we start producing a bundle *specifically* for Node.js environments.
With the changes in the previous patch the `isNodeJS`-helper no longer needs to live in its own file, which helps get rid of a closure in the *built* files.
In the last couple of years we've been quicker to remove support for older browsers/environments, which means that at this point in time we don't bundle that many polyfills. (The polyfills are also generally simpler nowadays, ever since we removed support for e.g. Internet Explorer.)
Rather than having to *manually* handle the polyfills, we can actually let Babel take care of bundling the necessary polyfills for us; please refer to https://babeljs.io/docs/babel-preset-env
The only exception here is the Node.js-specific compatibility-code, which is moved into the `src/display/node_utils.js` file. This ought to be fine since workers are not available/used in Node.js-environments.
*Please note:* For the `legacy`-builds this will increase the size of the *built* files, however that seems like a very small price to pay in order to simplify maintenance of the general PDF.js library.
In order to reproduce the issue:
- scale down the image
- zoom the page and the image is pixellated
So this patch allow to redraw the image when zooming.
- Take into account the page translation,
- Take into account the correct translation for the editor border,
- Take into account the position of the first glyph in the annotation,
- Take into account the rotation of the editor.
Close#16633.
- Do the /Filter and /DecodeParms lookup in parallel, since that ought to be a *tiny* bit more efficient.
- Avoid code-duplication when `CompressionStream` isn't supported, since we already have a fallback code-path at the end of the function.
createImageBitmap doesn't work with svg files (see bug 1841972), so we need to workaround
this in using an Image.
When printing/saving we must rasterize the image, hence we get the biggest bitmap as image
reference to avoid duplications or poor quality on rendering.
The existing code is unable to *correctly* extract the color from the appearance-stream when the ColorSpace-data is "complex". To reproduce this:
- Open `freetexts.pdf` in the viewer.
- Note the purple color of the "Hello World from Preview" annotation.
- Enable any of the Editors.
- Note how the relevant annotation is now black.
Note how we're accidentally using the wrong operator when trying to parse CMYK colors. I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this, since it seems uncommon in practice for annotations to specify text-colors in CMYK format.
When there was a rotation, the generated bbox was wrong because of an inversion
between width and height.
This patch aims to fix this issue in re-writing the FreeText code generation
to have something similar to what Acrobat does.
And fix the name of the font which wasn't the correct one when calling the
evaluator.
Given that the PDF.js library has never officially supported/documented that binary data can be provided as a `Buffer`, and that it's been explicitly deprecated in *four* releases, it seems reasonable that we outright reject such data instead (to reduce the amount of Node.js specific code-paths).
