- each annotation must be rendered independently of the others. So
after having rendered each annotation, the canvas states are reset
in order to have something clean to render the next one.
This method/function was added only for the `gulp image_decoders`-builds, and is completely unused elsewhere (e.g. in the Firefox PDF Viewer).
While this only reduces the size of the *built* `pdf.worker.js` file by a little over 1 kB, it can't hurt to remove completely unused code from the "normal" builds.
While calling `JSON.stringify(...)` on a class-instance obviously "works" (as in it doesn't throw), since it's really just an Object, it doesn't really make much sense in the context of the `AnnotationStorage.hash`-getter.
Also, access the *inverse* Viewport-transform correctly in `FreeTextEditor.serialize` to prevent errors being thrown when that method is invoked.
Finally, slightly updates the `AnnotationStorage.serializable`-getter to improve consistency within the class.
*This fixes a regression from PR 14754.*
We didn't lookup the image-data correctly, with the result that we tried to render some ImageMasks using a string rather than the intended TypedArray. To make matters worse, this code-path was apparently not *properly* covered by existing test-cases.
- Ensure that the modified-warning won't be displayed, when navigating away from the viewer, if the user has added custom Annotations and then *removed all* of them.
- Ensure that the *initial* editor-buttons state, i.e. the `toggled`-class, is correctly displayed in the toolbar when then viewer loads.
- Tweak the CSS-classes for the editor-buttons, such that they use the correct focus/hover-rules (similar to the sidebar-buttons).
- Remove a no longer accurate comment from the `BaseViewer.annotationEditorMode`-setter.
- Address a couple of *smaller* outstanding review comments, including some re-formatting changes, from PR 14976.
This patch contains a small optimization specifically for the case when `getDocument` is called with TypedArray-data. In that case we'll still hold onto that data, which could obviously be large, even after the "GetDocRequest"-message has been sent to the worker-thread.
In practice this will most likely not affect memory usage in any noticeable way, since the application calling `getDocument` will probably also be keeping a reference to the TypedArray-data. However, it seems like a good idea to ensure that the PDF.js API *itself* won't unnecessarily keep this data alive.
- it's a regression from PR #14247:
- before the PR, the button was rendered on the canvas whatever its status was;
- after the PR, the button image has been moved in an other canvas so when the button is not renderable
(because it has no actions) then the image is not added the HTML element.
- the buttons in the pdf in bug 1737260 or in the pdf in #14308 were not visible
- make the button always renderable but don't add the link element if it's useless.
- right now we're using the font size from the pdf itself but we use an other font
in the annotation layer. So this size doesn't really make sense and leads to bad
rendering (see pdf in #14928);
- use a sans-serif font for the fields containing text (fix issue #14736);
- remove useless padding in text-based fields (fix issue #14301);
- text fields allow/disallow scrolling bars (see bit 24 in Ff entry), so use this
value to hide/show scrollbars in annotation layer.
In the `src/display/canvas.js` code the `d1` operator will be used to set the clipping region, and it obviously cannot be empty since that prevents the Type3-glyph from rendering.
Also, the patch removes an outdated comment; refer to PR 12718.
This limits the heuristics for handling of incomplete path operators, see PR 9838, to only apply to *sequences* of such operators. In practice a couple of invalid path operators are (hopefully) unlikely to completely break rendering, whereas a sequence of them will easily lead to fairly chaotic rendering artifacts.
If the computed background/foreground colors are identical, the `canvas` would be rendered mostly blank with only images visible. Hence it seems reasonable to also ignore the `pageColors`-option in this case.
Also, the patch tries to *briefly* outline the various cases in which we ignore the `pageColors`-option in a comment.
*This patch can be tested, in the viewer, using the `annotation-fileattachment.pdf` document from the test-suite.*
Note how the `FileSpec`-implementation already uses `stringToPDFString` during the filename lookup, see cfac6fa511/src/core/file_spec.js (L70)
Hence there's no reason to repeat that again in the `FileAttachmentAnnotationElement`-constructor, and we can thus simplify the "fileattachmentannotation"-event handling a little bit.
- Use Canvas & CanvasText color when they don't have their default value
as background and foreground colors.
- The colors used to draw (stroke/fill) in a pdf are replaced by the bg/fg
ones according to their luminance.
The current `lastModified`-getter, which only contains a time-stamp, is a fairly crude way of detecting if the stored data has actually been changed. In particular, when the `getRawValue`-method is used, the `lastModified`-getter doesn't cope with data being modified from the "outside".
To fix these issues[1], and to prevent any future bugs in this code, this patch introduces a new `AnnotationStorage.hash`-getter which computes a hash of the currently stored data. To simplify things this re-uses the existing `MurmurHash3_64`-implementation, which required moving that file into the `src/shared/`-folder, since its performance should be good enough here.
---
[1] Given how the `AnnotationStorage.lastModified`-getter was used, this would have been limited to *printing* of forms.
- since resetForm function reset a field value a calculateNow is consequently triggered.
But the calculate callback can itself call resetForm, hence an infinite recursive loop.
So basically, prevent calculeNow to be triggered by itself.
- in Firefox, the letters entered in some fields were duplicated: "AaBb" instead of "AB".
It was mainly because beforeInput was triggering a Keystroke which was itself triggering
an input value update and then the input event was triggered.
So in order to avoid that, beforeInput calls preventDefault and then it's up to the JS to
handle the event.
- fields have a property valueAsString which returns the value as a string. In the
implementation it was wrongly used to store the formatted value of a field (2€ when the user
entered 2). So this patch implements correctly valueAsString.
- non-rendered fields can be updated in using JS but when they're, they must take some properties
in the annotationStorage. It was implemented for field values, but it wasn't for
display, colors, ...
- it fixes#14862 and #14705.
Given that the `isNodeJS`-constant will, after PR 14858, *always* be `false` in non-GENERIC builds we can simplify a couple of `getDocument`-parameter default values slightly.
The old format, with inline `PDFJSDev`-checks, wasn't exactly a wonder of readability; which was my fault.
This first of all simplifies the file, since we no longer need dummy-classes and can instead *directly* define the actual classes.
Furthermore, and more importantly, this means that we no longer need to bundle this code in e.g. MOZCENTRAL-builds which reduces the size of *built* `pdf.js` file slightly.
Given that the `compileType3Glyph` function *returns* a function, see `drawOutline`, we'll thus keep the surrounding scope alive. Hence it shouldn't hurt to *explicitly* mark the temporary `Uint8Array`s, used during parsing, as no longer needed. Given the current `MAX_SIZE_TO_COMPILE`-value these `Uint8Array`s may be approximately two mega-bytes large *for every* Type3-glyph.
Interestingly enough this appears to be the very first case of *encoded* dest-strings, in /GoTo destination dictionaries, that we've actually come across. What's really fascinating is that it's less than a week after issue 14847, given that these issues are *somewhat* similar.
This moves the `COMPILE_TYPE3_GLYPHS`/`MAX_SIZE_TO_COMPILE`-checks into the `compileType3Glyph` function itself, which allows for some simplification at the call-site.
These changes also mean that the `COMPILE_TYPE3_GLYPHS`-check is now done *once* per Type3-glyph, rather than everytime that the glyph is being rendered.
- it aims to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1264608;
- it's only a partial fix for #3351;
- some tiled images have some spurious white lines between the tiles.
When the current transform is applyed the corners of an image can have
some non-integer coordinates leading to some extra transparency added
to handle that. So with this patch the current transform is applied on the
point and on the dimensions in order to have at the end only integer values.
As it turns out, most of the code-paths in the `PDFImage`-class won't actually pass the TypedArray (containing the image-data) to the `ColorSpace`-code. Hence we *generally* don't need to force the image-data to be a `Uint8ClampedArray`, and can just as well directly use a `Uint8Array` instead.
In the following cases we're returning the data without any `ColorSpace`-parsing, and the exact TypedArray used shouldn't matter:
- b72a448327/src/core/image.js (L714)
- b72a448327/src/core/image.js (L751)
In the following cases the image-data is only used *internally*, and again the exact TypedArray used shouldn't matter:
- b72a448327/src/core/image.js (L762) with the actual image-data being defined (as `Uint8ClampedArray`) further below
- b72a448327/src/core/image.js (L837)
*Please note:* This is tagged `api-minor` because it's API-observable, given that *some* image/mask-data will now be returned as `Uint8Array` rather than using `Uint8ClampedArray` unconditionally. However, that seems like a small price to pay to (slightly) reduce memory usage during image-conversion.
Initially I considered updating the `NameOrNumberTree`-implementation to handle encoded keys, however that quickly became somewhat messy (especially in the `NameOrNumberTree.get`-method) since only NameTrees using string-keys.
Hence the easiest solution, as far as I'm concerned, was thus to just update the `Catalog.destinations`-getter instead. Please note that in the referenced PDF document the `Catalog.destination`-method will thus fallback to fetch all destinations, which should be fine since this is the very first case of encoded keys that we've seen.
Also changes the `NameOrNumberTree.getAll`-method to prevent a possible run-time error, although we've so far not seen such a case, for any non-Array Kids-entries found in a NameTree/NumberTree.
Finally, to improve overall consistency and to hopefully prevent future bugs, the patch also updates a couple of other `NameTree` call-sites to correctly handle encoded keys. (Note that the `Catalog.attachments`-getter was already doing this.)
While working on PR 14825, I couldn't help noticing that the code to increment the `count` for cached ImageMasks was repeated multiple times. Hence it makes sense, as far as I'm concerned, to move this into a helper function instead.
Currently we only insert optionalContent-data into the operatorList the first time that an image is parsed, which will (in hindsight) obviously cause problems for cached images.
Hence we also need to insert the optionalContent-data in the various worker-thread image caches, such that it can be accessed in the fast-paths that are used to skip re-parsing of images.
In order to reduce the amount of repeated code, this patch also adds a new `OperatorList`-method that takes care of inserting the necessary data in the operatorList.
In the referenced PDF document the fonts have /Encoding-entries that are Streams (containing completely bogus data), which are thus obviously not valid here.
Hence, only when `ignoreErrors` is set, we'll now ignore these corrupt /Encoding-entries and fallback to the existing code to try and infer a usable encoding.
Given that this is *clearly* a case of corrupt PDF documents, there's no guarantee that this will "fix" all such cases, however it's the best that we do here and shouldn't really be worse than ignoring an entire font.
- most of the time the current transform is a scaling one (modulo translation),
hence it's possible to avoid to apply the transform on each bbox and then apply
it a posteriori;
- compute the bbox when it's possible in the worker.
- it's the second part of the fix for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=857031;
- some image masks can be used several times but at different positions;
- an image need to be pre-process before to be rendered:
* rescale it;
* use the fill color/pattern.
- the two operations above are time consuming so we can cache the generated canvas;
- the cache key is based on the current transform matrix (without the translation part)
and the current fill color when it isn't a pattern.
- the rendering of the pdf in the above bug is really faster than without this patch.
- avoid to call normalizeRect which clones the rectangles: it's useless
and time consuming;
- in profiling the pdf in bug 1135277, the time spent in intersect drops
from ~1s to ~30ms.
Because of a bug in previous `core-js` versions, which caused an Error to be thrown if its `structuredClone` polyfill was called with an *explicit* `null`/`undefined` transfer-parameter, the `LoopbackPort`-class contained a work-around.
In the latest `core-js` version this has been fixed, and we can thus simplify our code ever so slightly; please see https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/releases/tag/v3.22.0
This CSS variable is only used together with the `annotationCanvasMap`-functionality in the canvas-code, however its value can be *trivially* computed by using the older `--zoom-factor` CSS variable together with the `PixelsPerInch`-structure.
Rather than having *two different* CSS variables that are this closely linked, it seems better to simplify things by using just one CSS variable instead.
- write some uint32 instead of uint8 to avoid the check before clamping;
- unroll the loop to write data in the buffer
- but keep a loop for the last element of a line: it likely doesn't hurt
that much since it's executed only for one time for each line;
- I tested on a macbook with an Apple chip, and on Firefox nightly the new
code is almost 3.5x faster than before (~1.8x with Chrome).
- it aims to partially fix performance issue reported: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=857031;
- the idea is too avoid to use byte arrays but use ImageBitmap which are a way faster to draw:
* an ImageBitmap is Transferable which means that it can be built in the worker instead of in the main thread:
- this is achieved in using an OffscreenCanvas when it's available, there is a bug to enable them
for pdf.js: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1763330;
- or in using createImageBitmap: in Firefox a task is sent to the main thread to build the bitmap so
it's slightly slower than using an OffscreenCanvas.
* it's transfered from the worker to the main thread by "reference";
* the byte buffers used to create the image data have a very short lifetime and ergo the memory used is globally
less than before.
- Use the localImageCache for the mask;
- Fix the pdf issue4436r.pdf: it was expected to have a binary stream for the image;
- Move the singlePixel trick from operator_list to image: this way we can use this trick even if it isn't in a set
as defined in operator_list.
We don't need to first check if the Dictionary contains the key, since trying to get a non-existent key simply returns `undefined` and we're already ensuring that the value is a boolean.
Furthermore, we shouldn't need to worry about the `Object.prototype` containing enumerable properties since the checks (in `src/core/worker.js`) done for `Array.prototype` *indirectly* also cover `Object`s. (Keep in mind that an `Array` is just a special kind of `Object` in JavaScript.)
*Please note:* This is possibly bad/wrong in general, but I figured that submitting it for review wouldn't hurt.
It seems that even Adobe Reader doesn't handle the non-ASCII characters that appear in some of the fields correctly, however it should be pretty easy to improve things on the PDF.js side.
- it aims to fix#14685;
- add a basic object to get values from the parsed datasets;
- these annotations don't have an appearance so we must create one when printing or saving.
- it aims to fix issue #14627;
- the basic idea of the recent text refactoring was to only consider the rendered visible whitespaces.
But sometimes, the heuristics aren't correct and although some whitespaces are in the text stream
they weren't in the text chunks because they were too small. Hence we added some exceptions, for example,
we always add a whitespace when it is between two non-whitespace chars but only when in the same Tj.
So basically, this patch removes the constraint to have the chars in the same Tj
(in using a circular buffer to save the two last chars) but don't add a space when the visible space is really
too small (hence `NOT_A_SPACE_FACTOR`).
Given that the textLayer-code has been using a `DocumentFragment` ever since PR 3356 (back in 2013), simply updating the type of the `container` property should be fine.
This patch also tries to, ever so slightly, improve the grammar of a couple of other properties in the typedef.
There's a couple of `getDocument` parameters that should be numbers, but which are currently not *fully* validated to prevent issues elsewhere in the code-base.
Also, improves validation of the `ownerDocument` parameter since we currently accept more-or-less anything here.
Note that the Prettier update made it possible to move a couple of comments after `default:`-cases back to their original/intended positions, please see https://prettier.io/blog/2022/03/16/2.6.0.html
This patch removes the existing `forEach` methods, in favor of making the classes properly iterable instead. Given that the classes are using a `Set` respectively a `Map` internally, implementing this is very easy/efficient and allows us to simplify some existing code.
Given that we now only use Workers when `postMessage` transfers are supported, there's really no point in trying to send a "test" message *without* transfers present.
Hence, if `postMessage` transfers are not supported by the browser, we'll now fallback to "fake" Workers immediately instead. The comment about Opera is also removed, since it was originally added back in PR 983 and mentions Opera `11.60` [which was released in 2011](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Opera_web_browser#Version_11).
These changes make sense for two reasons:
- Given that the parameters are potentially passed to the worker-thread, depending on the `useWorkerFetch` parameter, we need to prevent errors if the user provides values that aren't clonable.
- By ensuring that the default values are indeed `null`, we'll trigger main-thread fetching (of CMaps and Standard fonts) as intended in the `PartialEvaluator` and thus potentially provide better Error messages.
This function is currently placed in the `src/shared/util.js` file, which means that the code is duplicated in both of the *built* `pdf.js` and `pdf.worker.js` files. Furthermore, it only has a single call-site which is also specific to the `GENERIC`-build of the PDF.js library.
Hence this helper function is instead moved into the `src/display/api.js` file, in such a way that it's conditionally defined but still can be unit-tested.
Originally the code in the `src/`-folder was shared between the main/worker-threads, and back then it probably made sense that the `PDFDocument` constructor accepted different arguments.
However, for many years we've not been passing anything *except* Streams to `PDFDocument` and we should thus be able to slightly simplify that code. Note that for e.g. unit-tests of this code, using either a `NullStream` or a `StringStream` works just fine.
According to the MDN compatibility data, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/DOMMatrix/DOMMatrix#browser_compatibility, all browsers that we support have native `DOMMatrix` implementations (since quite some time too).
Hence Node.js is the only environment that lack `DOMMatrix` support, which probably isn't that surprising given that it's browser functionality.
While the `DOMMatrix` polyfill isn't that large, it nonetheless seems completely unnecessary to bundle it in the `legacy` builds when it's not needed in browsers. However, we can avoid that by simply listing `dommatrix` as a dependency for the `pdfjs-dist` library.
When there are *multiple* empty glyphs at the start of the data, ensure that the "first" glyph gets a correct `endOffset` to avoid skipping it during parsing in the `sanitizeGlyph` function.
The situation described in issue 14626 seems like a fairly special case, and it thus seem reasonable that we simply follow the same pattern as elsewhere in the `PartialEvaluator` when the `stopAtErrors` API-option is being used.
The "External: Promise"-page in the JSDocs pre-dates the introduction of `Promise`s, as a generally available standard JS feature, by a number of years. Hence it now longer seems necessary, as far as I can tell, to include this "special" page in the documentation.
Also, while unrelated to the rest of the patch, updates the `test/`-folder description in the documentation.
The call-sites are replaced by direct `typeof`-checks instead, which removes unnecessary function calls. Note that in the `src/`-folder we already had more `typeof`-cases than `isString`-calls.
This removes the `DocumentInfoValidators` structure, and thus (slightly) simplifies the code overall. With these changes we only have to iterate through, and validate, the actually available Dictionary entries.

- issue #14521.
- 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.
All call-sites that use `wrapReason` should be passing a (possibly cloned) `Error` to the helper function, hence we shouldn't need to have a fallback code-path for any other data.
Note that for the `cancel`/`error` methods on Streams, since PR 11115 we've been asserting that the argument is in fact an `Error` as intended.
When calling `wrapReason` from *rejected* Promises, we should also be guaranteed that an `Error` is provided thanks to the ESLint rules `no-throw-literal` and `prefer-promise-reject-errors`.
Currently we'll happily attempt to send any argument passed to this method over to the worker-thread, without doing any sort of validation.
That could obviously be quite bad, since there's first of all no protection against sending unclonable data. Secondly, it's also possible to pass data that will cause the `Ref.get` call in the worker-thread to fail immediately.
In order to address all of these issues, we'll now properly validate the argument passed to `PDFDocumentProxy.getPageIndex` and when necessary reject already on the main-thread instead.
Trying to use a non-string argument in either a `Cmd` or a `Name` is not intended, and would basically be an implementation error. Hence we can add a non-PRODUCTION check to enforce this, similar to the existing one used e.g. in the `Dict.set` method.
This removes the `ViewerPreferencesValidators` structure, and thus (slightly) simplifies the code overall. With these changes we only have to iterate through, and validate, the actually available Dictionary entries.
Trying to use a non-string `key` in a `Dict` is not intended, and would basically be an implementation error. Hence we can add a non-PRODUCTION check to enforce this, complementing the existing `value` check added in PR 11672.
The call-sites are replaced by direct `typeof`-checks instead, which removes unnecessary function calls. Note that in the `src/`-folder we already had more `typeof`-cases than `isNum`-calls.
These changes were *mostly* done using regular expression search-and-replace, with two exceptions:
- In `Font._charToGlyph` we no longer unconditionally update the `width`, since that seems completely unnecessary.
- In `PDFDocument.documentInfo`, when parsing custom entries, we now do the `typeof`-check once.
Unless you actually need to check that something is both a `Name` and also of the *correct* type, using `instanceof Name` directly should be a tiny bit more efficient since it avoids one function call and an unnecessary `undefined` check.
This patch uses ESLint to enforce this, since we obviously still want to keep the `isName` helper function for where it makes sense.

Given that we expose `PDFObjects`-instances, via the `commonObjs` and `objs` properties, on the `PDFPageProxy`-instances this ought to help provide slightly better TypeScript definitions.
The manually tracked `resolved`-property is no longer necessary, since the same information is now directly available on all `PromiseCapability`-instances.
Furthermore, since the `PDFObjects.resolve` method is not documented as accepting e.g. only Object-data, we probably shouldn't resolve the `PromiseCapability` with the `data` and instead only store it on the `PDFObjects`-instance.[1]
---
[1] While Objects are passed by reference in JavaScript, other primitives such as e.g. strings are passed by value and the current implementation *could* thus lead to increased memory usage. Given how we're using `PDFObjects` in the PDF.js code-base none of this should be an issue, but it still cannot hurt to change this.
This ensures that the underlying data cannot be accessed directly, from the outside, since that's definately not intended here.
Note that we expose `PDFObjects`-instances, via the `commonObjs` and `objs` properties, on the `PDFPageProxy`-instances hence these changes really cannot hurt.
This helper function is not really needed, since it's just a wrapper around a simple `instanceof` check, and it only adds unnecessary indirection in the code.
*Please note:* I'm completely fine with this patch being rejected, and the issue instead closed as WONTFIX, since this is unfortunately a case where the TypeScript definitions dictate how we can/cannot write JavaScript code.
Apparently the TypeScript definitions generation converts the existing `PixelsPerInch` code into a `namespace` and simply ignores the getter; please see a7fc0d33a1/types/src/display/display_utils.d.ts (L223-L226)
Initially I tried tagging `PixelsPerInch` as en `@enum`, see https://jsdoc.app/tags-enum.html, however that unfortunately didn't help.
Hence the only good/simple solution, as far as I'm concerned, is to convert `PixelsPerInch` into a class with `static` properties. This patch results in the following diff, for the `gulp types` build target:
```diff

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
At this point all the various Stream-classes extends an abstract base-class, hence this helper function is no longer necessary and only adds unnecessary indirection in the code.
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.

[1] Consider e.g. how there's usually different fonts used for regular, bold, respectively italic text.
