Currently there's no UI for this functionality in the GV-viewer, however we still call the API methods. This potentially leads to a bunch of worker-thread parsing, for PDF documents with these features, despite the result being completely unused.
Given that mobile devices are usually more resource constrained than desktop/laptop computers, not to mentioned battery life, we can avoid doing work that'll just be ignored anyway.
The `DownloadManager.openOrDownloadData` method is written for the default-viewer specifically, assuming a viewer able to handle e.g. URL search/hash parameters. In the viewer components there's obviously no such functionality, and we should thus trigger downloading of PDF attachments directly instead.
Given that the GV-viewer isn't using most of the UI-related components of the default-viewer, we can avoid including them in the *built* viewer to save space.[1]
The least "invasive" way of implementing this, at least that I could come up with, is to leverage import maps with suitable stubs for the GV-viewer.
The one slightly annoying thing is that we now have larger import maps across multiple html-files, and you'll need to remember to update all of them when making future changes.

[1] With this patch, the built `viewer.js` size is 391 kB and `viewer-geckoview.js` is 285 kB.
This is very old code, where we loop through the user-provided options and build an internal parameter object. To prevent errors we also need to ensure that the parameters are correct/valid, which is especially important for the ones that are sent to the worker-thread such that structured cloning won't fail.[1]
Over the years this has led to more and more code being added in `getDocument` to validate the user-provided options, and at this point *most* of them have at least basic validation. However the way that this is implemented feels slightly backwards, since we first build the internal parameter object and only *afterwards* validate those parameters.[2]
Hence this patch changes the `getDocument` function to instead check/validate the supported options upfront, and then *explicitly* build the internal parameter object with only the needed properties.
---
[1] Note the supported types at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Structured_clone_algorithm#supported_types
[2] The internal parameter object may also, because of the loop, end up with lots of unnecessary properties since anything that the user provides is being copied.
These functions invoke the `PDFViewer.currentPageNumber` setter, which already checks that a `pdfDocument` is currently active. Also, given that they're event handlers for the First/Last-page buttons (in the SecondaryToolbar) they can't be invoked before the viewer has been fully initalized.
The default value of the `--scale-select-width` CSS variable has been choosen such that it should be large enough for most locales. This means that in many locales we don't even update the CSS variable at all, and for those locales where we do the update happens *one time* early during the viewer initialization (i.e. before the PDF document has loaded).
*Please note:* Compared to other recent PRs, the effect of these changes ought to be really tiny and are mostly done to promote better coding patterns.
The reasons for making this change are:
- There's no UI available to toggle the cursor-tools in the GeckoView-specific viewer.
- The `HandTool`-implementation basically *simulates* touch scrolling, and is thus unlikely to be helpful/useful anyway.
- PR 15831 already changed the relevant call-sites to handle `PDFViewerApplication.pdfCursorTools` being undefined.
Some of the code in this method is *very* old, and we could thus modernize it a little bit by removing a couple of the loops used to build the `getDocument` argument.
These `@media` rules were most likely just copy-pasted from the regular viewer, however none of them are currently necessary since the GeckoView-specific viewer doesn't have any toolbars.
Note that the whole purpose of these CSS rules are to make the toolbar, of the regular viewer, responsive. If we in the future add toolbars for the GeckoView-specific viewer, these rules most likely wouldn't be usable as-is anyway.
This option was added specifically for third-party users, but has never been used in the PDF.js project itself. Furthermore there's no preference that can be used to enable it, and you need to provide the `removePageBorders` option when initializing a `PDFViewer`-instance.
This patch thus get rid of a little bit more unused code in the Firefox PDF Viewer.
*Unfortunately I missed this during testing/reviewing of PR 15992.*
With the changes in PR 15992 we're now only adding the `loadingIcon`-class when rendering is actually `RUNNING`, in order to improve overall performance.
However when resetting the page, i.e. the `INITIAL` state, we also need to remove the `loadingIcon` completely. Without this patch if you scroll through a document where the pages don't load instantaneously, see e.g. issue 2504, we'll leave the `loadingIcon`-class attached to pages that have had their rendering cancelled *and* also been evicted from the `PDFPageViewBuffer`-instance.
This way we don't have a lot of useless divs and we let the css engine handle the
creation/destruction of the :after pseudo-element.
It'll help to slightly improve performance when zooming.
The only parameter that we actually need here is the `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance, since the others are not necessary.
- The `url` parameter, as passed to the `getDocument` function in the API, is simply being ignored; see 2d87a2eb1c/src/display/api.js (L447-L458)
- The `length` parameter, as passed to the `getDocument` function in the API, is always being overwritten; see 2d87a2eb1c/src/display/api.js (L519-L525)
Until PR 12563 is deemed safe to land, I'd still like to be able to use worker-modules in the viewer during local development.
Hence this patch which *temporarily* adds a new `workerModules` hash-parameter, only available in non-PRODUCTION mode, that allows using worker-modules in the development viewer.
To enable this functionality, simply use http://localhost:8888/web/viewer.html#workerModules=true
If this method was added today, I really can't imagine that we'd support anything *except* objects. Unfortunately we cannot just remove this now, since the code has existed since "forever", however we can deprecate this and limit it to only the GENERIC build.
Furthermore, we can avoid a redundant `PDFViewerApplication.setTitleUsingUrl` call in the Firefox PDF Viewer since the title has already been set previously in that case.
This function is only used in PresentationMode these days, but we can still improve it a little bit:
- Use the existing web-platform `deltaMode` constants, rather than defining our own constants for those values.
- Access the `deltaMode` first, before the `delta{X, Y}` properties, to avoid being affected by bug 1392460 (similar to the default viewer).
It seems nicer overall, since we're exporting the `ProgressBar` in the viewer-components, to move this functionality into the `ProgressBar`-class itself rather than handling it "manually" in the default-viewer.
At the beginning of a search we can an update can be triggered with 0 over 0
found matches.
In the GeckoView context, we can't update the finder whenever we want but only
when it has been required.
Rather than adding `@media (forced-colors: active) { ... }`-blocks throughout the CSS code, we should utilize CSS variables instead as in our other CSS files.
When a css variable is update in a node then all the children under this
node are updated.
In order to avoid to update all the UI when a page is rescaling, this
patch moves the --scale-factor from the :root to the viewer container.
After the changes in PR 15812 we'll now *intermittently* display completely black canvases during zooming. To reproduce this, try switching to wrapped-scrolling and zoom in/out very quickly using either the mouse-wheel or pinching.
This patch removes the recently introduced `transferPdfData` API-option, and simply enables transferring of TypedArray data *by default* instead of copying it. This will help reduce main-thread memory usage, however it will take ownership of the TypedArrays. Currently this only applies to the following cases:
- TypedArrays passed to the `getDocument`-function in the API, in order to open PDF documents from binary data.
- TypedArrays passed to a `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance, used to support custom PDF document fetching/loading (see e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer).
*PLEASE NOTE:* To avoid being affected by this, please simply *copy* any TypedArray data before passing it to either of the functions/methods mentioned above.
Now that we transfer TypedArray data that we previously only copied, we need to be more careful with input validation. Given how the `{IPDFStreamReader, IPDFStreamRangeReader}.read` methods will always return ArrayBuffer data, which is then transferred to the worker-thread[1], the actual TypedArray data passed to the API thus need to have the same exact size as its underlying ArrayBuffer to prevent issues.
Hence we'll check for this and only allow transferring of *safe* TypedArray data, and fallback to simply copying the data just as before. This obviously shouldn't be an issue in the Firefox PDF Viewer, but for the general PDF.js library we need to be more careful here.

- Scale factor is rounded to only scale by integer percent, hence the unused
ticks are accumulated (like we already do for zoom with the mouse wheel).
- Use the same thing for the pinch-to-zoom on a touchscreen: it led to slightly
refactor the code because it happened to ignore a not so small scale which
led to a not so smooth zooming.
Also, removes the `initialData`-parameter JSDocs for the `getDocument`-function given that this parameter has been completely unused since PR 8982 (over five years ago). Note that the `initialData`-parameter is, and always was, intended to be provided when initializing a `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance.
After the changes in PR 15850, the `background-color` of the sidebar is now unnecessarily dark in the light-theme. Hence, we can simply remove this CSS rule to improve things overall (and these changes don't affect the dark-theme much at all).
This is even an overall consistency improvement, given the existing `--sidebar-narrow-bg-color` values.
In most of the cases, showing the loading icon is useless because
it's for a very short time, consequently it doesn't bring any useful
information for the user.
After a delay (400ms), the icon is shown in order to inform the user
that the viewer isn't stuck but it's doing something.
In GeckoView, on an event, a callback must be executed with the result of an action,
but the callback can be used only one time.
So for each FindInPage event, we must trigger only one matches count update.
This option/preference was disabled in GENERIC builds, see PR 15812, to avoid landing it *just before* a new release. Hence it should be fine to enable this now.
This tweaks a few name that originated in PR 15812, to improve overall consistency:
- Use the `drawingDelay` parameter-name in all methods that accept a delay.
- Use the `postponeDrawing` variable-name in all relevant methods.
With upcoming background changes elsewhere in the viewer, this should be helpful in separating the styling of the loadingBar. These changes also means that both the "regular" and the "indeterminate" loadingBar now uses the same `background-color` value.
Also, shortens the related CSS variables a little bit since that can't hurt.
*This makes the same kind of changes as in the previous patch, but for the pageNumber-loadingIcon in the main toolbar.*
To display the pageNumber-loadingIcon when rendering starts, if the page is the most visible one, we'll utilize the existing "pagerender" event.
To toggle the pageNumber-loadingIcon as the user moves through the document we'll now instead utilize the "pagechanging" event, which should actually be slightly more efficient overall[1]. Note how we'd, in the old code, only consider the most visible page anyway when toggling the pageNumber-loadingIcon.
---
[1] Even in a PDF document as relatively short/simple as `tracemonkey.pdf`, scrolling through the entire document can easily trigger the "updateviewarea" event more than a thousand times.
Given that we only render one page at a time, this will lead to only *one* page-loadingIcon being displayed at a time even if multiple pages are visible in the viewer. However, this will make it clearer which page is the currently parsing/rendering one.
To simplify toggling of the page-loadingIcon visibility, the existing `PDFPageView.renderingState` is changed into a getter/setter-pair with the latter also handling the page-loadingIcon state.
An additional benefit of these changes is that the `PDFViewer` no longer needs to handling toggling of page-loadingIcon visibility during rendering, since there can only ever be *one* page rendering.
Finally, this may also simplify future changes w.r.t. page-loadingIcon visibility toggling (using e.g. a show-timeout).
The rotation-caching added in PR 15812 completely breaks initialization of PDF documents with varying page sizes, causing all pages to wrongly get the same size; see e.g. `sizes.pdf` from the test-suite.
To fix that without having to e.g. add a new parameter, which feels error prone, this patch changes the `PDFPageView.#setDimensions` method to completely ignore the rotation-caching until the `setPdfPage`-method has been called.
Right now, the visible pages are redrawn for each scale change.
Consequently, zooming with mouse wheel or in pinching can be pretty janky
(even on a desktop machine but with a hdpi screen).
So the main idea in this patch is to draw the visible pages only once zooming
is finished.
After the changes in PR 15829 the `loadingIconDiv` is no longer always visible when it should be, specifically in the case where we cancel and re-render a partially parsed/rendered page.
To reproduce this, try opening https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/files/1522715/wuppertal_2012.pdf in the viewer and change the zoom level while rendering is ongoing. In this case the `loadingIconDiv` doesn't actually become visible, despite being present in the DOM, since it's no longer at the end of the page-div.
I don't know to what extent this renders PR 15829 "pointless", however we're not repeatedly re-creating and re-inserting the `loadingIconDiv` but rather just *move* the existing element in the DOM.
We'll no longer import the `SimpleLinkService` dependency unconditionally in the file, since it's only used in COMPONENTS-builds.
Furthermore, for the COMPONENTS-builds, we'll create a `SimpleLinkService`-instance only for those layers that actually need it.
Please note that this functionality has never really mattered for the Firefox PDF Viewer, the GENERIC viewer, or even the "simpleviewer"/"singlepageviewer" component-examples. Hence, in practice this means that only the "pageviewer" component-example[1] have ever really utilized this.
Using factories to initialize various layers in the viewer, rather than simply invoking the relevant code directly, seems (at least to me) like a somewhat roundabout way of doing things.
Not only does this lead to more code, both to write and maintain, but since many of the layers have common parameters (e.g. an `AnnotationStorage`-instance) there's also some duplication.
Hence this patch, which removes the `xfaLayerFactory` and instead uses a lookup-function in the `PDFPageView`-class to access the external viewer-properties as necessary.
Note that this should even be an improvement for the "pageviewer" component-example, since most layers will now work by default rather than require manual configuration.

[1] In practice we generally suggest using the "simpleviewer", or "singlepageviewer", since it does *most* things out-of-the-box and given that a lot of functionality really require *a viewer* and not just a single page in order to work.

Currently we'll only initialize and render the `annotationEditorLayer` once the regular `annotationLayer` has been rendered.
While it obviously makes sense to render the `annotationEditorLayer` *last*, the way that the code is currently written means that if a third-party user disables the `annotationLayer` then the editing-functionality indirectly becomes disabled as well.
Given that this seems like a somewhat arbitrary limitation, this patch simply decouples these two layers while still keeping the rendering order consistent.
By moving this code the "pageviewer"-component example will become slightly more usable on its own, it may simplify a future addition of XFA Foreground document support, and finally also serves as preparation for the following patches.
The container position and dimensions should be almost constant, hence
it's pretty useless to query them on each rescale.
Finally it avoids to trigger some reflows.
First of all, given the screen-sizes of most mobile phones using Spread modes is unlikely to be useful.
Secondly, and more importantly, since there's (currently) no UI available for the user to override a PDF document-specified Spread mode this would result in a bad UX otherwise.
Also, removes an outdated comment from the `apiPageLayoutToViewerModes` helper function.
Depending on e.g. the `textLayerMode` option it might not actually be necessary to always initialize this eagerly.
*Please note:* Unfortunately we cannot `shadow` a private field, hence why this is only made semi-"private".
It's a follow-up of #14950: some format actions are ran when the document is open
but we must be sure we've everything ready for that, hence we have to run some
named actions before runnig the global format.
In playing with the form, I discovered that the blur event wasn't triggered when
JS called `setFocus` (because in such a case the mouse was never down). So I removed
the mouseState thing to just use the correct commitKey when blur is triggered by a
TAB key.
For pages without any annotations, applies e.g. to the `tracemonkey.pdf` document, we'll repeatedly try to re-create the `annotationLayer` on every zoom and rotation operation.
The reason that this happens is because we don't insert the `annotationLayer`-div into the DOM unless there's annotations present on the page, which thus means that we miss the existing `annotationLayer`-caching present in the `PDFPageView` implementation.
This is a very old issue, and the easiest solution is to simply always insert an *empty* (and hidden) `annotationLayer`-div such that the existing code/caching starts working for the "no annotations" case as well.
Note that this is consistent with other layers, since e.g. the `textLayer` and/or `annotationEditorLayer` may be empty. Given that only a limited, by default ten, number of pages are ever active at once the additional DOM-elements shouldn't effect things negatively here.
