Given that we only use standard `import`/`export` statements now, after recent PRs, the "exports" global is unused.
Instead we add "__non_webpack_import__" to the `globals` to avoid having to sprinkle disable statements throughout the code.
Finally, the way that `globals` are defined has changed in ESLint and we should thus explicitly specify them as "readonly"; please find additional details at https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/language-options#specifying-globals
Those files only contain old debugging code that is not used/imported
anywhere anymore, which is generating code scanning alerts. Moreover,
they rely on globals/platform-specific code and don't import/export
logic properly.
Given the amount of work put into removing `require`-calls from the code-base, let's ensure that new ones aren't accidentally added in the future.
Note that we still have a couple of files where `require` is being used, in particular:
- The Node.js examples, however those will be updated to use `import` in PR 17081.
- The Webpack examples, and related support files, however I unfortunately don't know enough about Webpack to be able to update those. (Hopefully users of that code will help out here, once version `4` is released.)
- The `statcmp`-tool, since *some* of those `require`-calls cannot be converted to `import` without other code changes (and that file is only used during benchmarking).
Please find additional details at https://github.com/import-js/eslint-plugin-import/blob/main/docs/rules/no-commonjs.md
This *finally* allows us to mark the entire PDF.js library as a "module", which should thus conclude the (multi-year) effort to re-factor and improve how we import files/resources in the code-base.
This also means that the `gulp ci-test` target, which is what's run in GitHub Actions, now uses JavaScript modules since that's supported in modern Node.js versions.
For large/complex images it's possible that the image-data arrives in the API *after* the page has been scrolled out-of-view and thus been cleaned-up. In this case we obviously shouldn't cache such page-level data, since it'll first of all be unused and secondly can increase memory usage *a lot*.
Also, ensure that we *immediately* release any `ImageBitmap` data in this case to help reclaim memory faster.
When pdfBug is true, the substitution font is used in the text layer in order
to be able to know what is the font really used thanks to the devtools.
And to be sure that fonts are loaded, the font cache isn't cleaned up when
the debugger is active.
Comparing the currently supported browsers/environments, see [the FAQ](https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#faq-support) and the [MDN compatibility data](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/structuredClone#browser_compatibility), the `structuredClone` polyfill is *only* needed in Google Chrome versions < 98. Because of some limitations in the core-js polyfill we're currently forced to special-case the `transfer` handling to prevent bugs, and it'd be nice to avoid that.
Note that `structuredClone`, with transfers, is only used in two spots:
- The `LoopbackPort` class, which is only used with fake workers. Given that fake workers should *never* be used in browsers, breaking that edge-case in older Google Chrome versions seem fine.
- The `AnnotationStorage` class, when Stamp-annotations have been added to the document. Given that Google Chrome isn't the main focus of development, breaking *part* of the editing-functionality in older Google Chrome versions should hopefully be acceptable.
To avoid problems with `export` statements in the QuickJS Javascript Engine, we can work-around that by *explicitly* exposing `pdfjsScripting` globally instead.
At this point in time all browsers, and also Node.js, support standard `import`/`export` statements and we can now finally consider outputting modern JavaScript modules in the builds.[1]
In order for this to work we can *only* use proper `import`/`export` statements throughout the main code-base, and (as expected) our Node.js support made this much more complicated since both the official builds and the GitHub Actions-based tests must keep working.[2]
One remaining issue is that the `pdf.scripting.js` file cannot be built as a JavaScript module, since doing so breaks PDF scripting.
Note that my initial goal was to try and split these changes into a couple of commits, however that unfortunately didn't really work since it turned out to be difficult for smaller patches to work correctly and pass (all) tests that way.[3]
This is a classic case of every change requiring a couple of other changes, with each of those changes requiring further changes in turn and the size/scope quickly increasing as a result.
One possible "issue" with these changes is that we'll now only output JavaScript modules in the builds, which could perhaps be a problem with older tools. However it unfortunately seems far too complicated/time-consuming for us to attempt to support both the old and modern module formats, hence the alternative would be to do "nothing" here and just keep our "old" builds.[4]

[1] The final blocker was module support in workers in Firefox, which was implemented in Firefox 114; please see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/import#browser_compatibility
[2] It's probably possible to further improve/simplify especially the Node.js-specific code, but it does appear to work as-is.
[3] Having partially "broken" patches, that fail tests, as part of the commit history is *really not* a good idea in general.
[4] Outputting JavaScript modules was first requested almost five years ago, see issue 10317, and nowadays there *should* be much better support for JavaScript modules in various tools.
The user should *always* provide a correct `GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc` value when using the PDF.js library in browser environments. Note that the fallback:
- Has been deprecated ever since PR 11418, first released in version `2.4.456` over three years ago.
- Was always a best-effort solution, with no guarantees that it'd actually work correctly.
- With upcoming changes, w.r.t. outputting JavaScript modules, it'd now be more diffiult to determine the correct value.
When an editing button is disabled, focused and the user press Enter (or space), an
editor is automatically added at the center of the current page.
Next creations can be done in using the same keys within the focused page.
When an element has the hasOwnCanvas flag we must have an HTML container to attach
the canvas where the element will be rendered.
So the noHTML flag must take this information into account:
- in some cases the noHTML flag is resetted depending on the hasOwnCanvas value;
- in some others, the hasOwnCanvas flag is set depending on the value of noHTML.
To reduced the risk of regressing something else, given that the issue only applies to a (for the default viewer) non-default configuration, this patch is purposely limited to only TextWidget-annotations in the display layer.
This has been deprecated since version `2.15.349`, which is a year ago.
Removing this will also simplify some upcoming changes, specifically outputting of JavaScript modules in the builds.
When the editor is invisible (because on a non-rendered page) its parent is null.
But when we undo its deletion, we need to have a parent to attach it.
but keep it for the text area.
Disable pointerdown on the alt-text button to disable dragging the editor
when the button is clicked (especially when slightly moving the mouse
between the down and the up).
When the user edit an existing alt-text and remove it, we want to be able
to save this state and consequently remove the done state from the
alt-text button.
Remove the button from its parent when the editor is removed: it should
help to save few Kb of memory.
Rather than trying to be "clever" here, and possibly affect code readability negatively, let's just restore the `collectFields` parameter to address the unneeded parsing that now happens when printing new Annotations.
In the rare situation that an optional content dictionary lacks a /Type-entry we currently throw, which may prevent e.g. Form XObjects from rendering completely.
Fixes https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=707147
When there is no tree, the tags for the new annotions are just put under the root element.
When there is a tree, we insert the new tags at the right place in using the value
of structTreeParentId (added in PR #16916).
Now that modern JavaScript is fully supported also in the worker-thread we no longer need to keep old closures, which slightly reduces the size of the code.
Given that this is a shadowed getter, the `opMap` is already lazily initialized and it shouldn't be necessary to *also* use the `getLookupTableFactory` helper function here. Looking at the history of the code, it seems that this is simply a leftover from before JavaScript classes existed.

While this cache will not contain a huge amount of data in practice, it's nonetheless a *global* cache that currently will never be cleared.
This patch also removes the existing closure, since it shouldn't really be necessary nowadays given that the code is a JavaScript module which means that only explicitly listed properties will be exported.
When I started looking at PR 16938 it occurred to me that some of the new structTree-methods are synchronously accessing certain dictionary-data (not used during "normal" structTree-parsing), which may not be generally safe since everything in a dictionary could be a reference (and the relevant data may not have been loaded yet).
Rather than suggesting that we make all those new methods even more asynchronous, to me the overall simplest and safest solution is to ensure that the *entire* PDF document has been loaded *before* we begin saving it. In practice this shouldn't really affect "performance" of saving noticeably, since it's always depended on the entire PDF document being downloaded.
Finally note that with the exception of the PDF document possibly not having been fully downloaded when saving is triggered, all other "global" document properties are pretty much guaranteed to already be available at this point.
While it makes sense to check that the `destDict` parameter is indeed a Dictionary, since that data comes from the PDF document itself, the `resultObj` parameter is an internal PDF.js implementation detail that should always be correct (or tests will fail).
Over time the amount of "document level" data potentially needed during parsing of Annotations have increased a fair bit, which means that we currently need to ensure that a bunch of data is available for each individual Annotation.
Given that this data is "constant" for a PDF document we can instead create (and cache) it lazily, only when needed, *before* starting to parse the Annotations on a page. This way the parsing of individual Annotations should become slightly less asynchronous, which really cannot hurt.
An additional benefit of these changes is that we can reduce the number of parameters that need to be explicitly passed around in the annotation-code, which helps overall readability in my opinion.
One potential drawback of these changes is that the `AnnotationFactory.create` method no longer handles "everything" on its own, however given how few call-sites there are I don't think that's too much of a problem.
The classes were stripped out during when creating the field name but
it led to a wrong name.
Since class components in a path are irrelevant, they're just ignored
when searching for a node in the datasets.
Focus callback must be called only when the element has been blurred.
For example, blur callback (which implies some potential validation) is not called
because the newly focused element is an other tab, an alert dialog, ... so consequently
the focus callback mustn't be called when the element gets its focus back.
While reviewing PR 16898 it occurred to me that it's currently impossible to trigger downloading of FileAttachment annotations using the keyboard.
Hence this patch adds `Ctrl + Enter` as the keyboard shortcut to download those, thus supplementing the existing double-clicking when using a mouse.
The goal is to always have something which is focusable to let the user select
it with the keyboard.
It fixes the mentioned bug because, the annotation layer will now have a container
to attach the canvas for annotations having their own canvas.
This fixes invalid type references (either due to invalid paths for the
import or missing imports) in the JS doc, as well as some missing or
invalid parameter names for @param annotations.
The issue described in the mentioned bug is reall because
Acrobat is rendering the XFA instead of the Acroform.
The original patch just tried to workaround the issue but it
induces some regressions.
This was added in PR 14899, over a year ago, however it's still completely unused in the PDF.js library/viewer. In hindsight I think that it was a mistake to add unused functionality, and the issue should probably have been WONTFIXed instead, however we probably can't just remove it now.
Thanks to the pre-processor, we can at least exclude this code in the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer.
