To improve performance of the sidebar we use the page-canvases to generate the thumbnails whenever possible, since that avoids unnecessary re-rendering when the sidebar is open. This works generally well, however there's an old problem in PDF documents that contain interactive forms (when those are enabled): Note how the thumbnails become partially (or fully) blank, since those Annotations are not included in the OperatorList.[1]
We obviously want to keep using the `PDFThumbnailView.setImage`-method for most documents, however we need a way to skip it only for those pages that contain interactive forms.
As it turns out it's unfortunately not all that simple to tell, after the fact, from looking only at the OperatorList that some Annotations were skipped. While it might have been possible to try and infer that in the viewer, it'd not have been pretty considering that at the time when rendering finishes the annotationLayer has not yet been built.
The overall simplest solution that I could come up with, was instead to include a *summary* of the interactive form-state when doing the final "flushing" of the OperatorList and expose that information in the API.
---
[1] Some examples from our test-suite: `annotation-tx2.pdf` where the thumbnail is completely blank, and `bug1737260.pdf` where the thumbnail is missing the "buttons" found on the page.
Currently some `OPS.beginAnnotation` arguments will contain a `Number` value for the `isUsingOwnCanvas`-parameter, or in some cases an `undefined` value, which is inconsistent from an API perspective.
In the referenced PDF document the fonts have /CIDToGIDMap-entries that cannot be loaded. Hence, only when `ignoreErrors` is set, we'll now ignore these corrupt /CIDToGIDMap-entries and fallback to simply assume that no such data is available.
Given that this is *clearly* a case of a corrupt PDF document, there's no guarantee that this will "fix" things in the general case since a /CIDToGIDMap may be *required* in order for some composite fonts to render correctly. However, attempting to render *something* is surely better than skipping a font altogether.
Note that these cases, which are all in older code, were found using the [`unicorn/no-for-loop`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/eslint-plugin-unicorn/blob/main/docs/rules/no-for-loop.md) ESLint plugin rule.
However, note that I've opted not to enable this rule by default since there's still *some* cases where I do think that it makes sense to allow "regular" for-loops.
Note how we currently throw a "raw" Error, which is problematical since all of the `PartialEvaluator.loadFont` call-sites expect a Promise to be returned. Furthermore, this also means that we don't benefit from the fallback code-path that now exists below.
*Please note:* Unfortunately I don't have a test-case that fails without this patch, since it's something I happened to notice when reading the code while working on another patch.
This extends PR 13461, by also building a fallback bounding box for Type3 fonts that contain a much too small /FontBBox-entry.
*Please note:* While this patch improves things overall, copy-and-pasting still doesn't work perfectly for this document. In particular the lowercase letter "c" cannot be selected/copied, however this can be reproduced in both Adobe Reader and PDFium (in Google Chrome) too, which is caused by a lack of proper /ToUnicode-data in the PDF document.
- As in the annotation layer, use percent instead of pixels as unit;
- handle the rotation of the editor layer in allowing editing when rotation
angle is not zero;
- the different editors are rotated counterclockwise in order to be usable
when the main page is itself rotated;
- add support for saving/printing rotated editors.
Given that Annotations can also have an `OC`-entry, we need to take that into account when generating their operatorLists.
Note that in order to simplify the patch the `getOperatorList`-methods, for the Annotation-classes, were converted to be `async`.
- the annotations must be rendered in the same order as the chronological one.
- fix a bug in document.js which avoids to read a saved pdf correctly in Acrobat:
there is no need to reset the xref state: it's done in worker.js once everything
has been saved.
- Let the `Page.save`-method filter out "empty" entries, similar to the `Page._parsedAnnotations`-getter, since that on its own already simplifies the "SaveDocument"-handler a tiny bit.
- The existing `reduce` and `concat` construction isn't exactly a wonder of readability :-)
Thanks to modern JavaScript features it should be possible to replace all of this with `Array.prototype.flat()` instead, which at least to me feels a lot easier to understand.
There are obviously cases where using `concat` makes perfect sense, since that method doesn't change any of the existing Arrays; see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/concat
However, in a few cases throughout the code-base that's not an issue and using `concat` only leads to unnecessary intermediate allocations. With modern JavaScript we can thus replace those with a combination of `push` and spread-syntax, which wasn't originally possible when the code was written.
- each annotation has its coordinates/dimensions expressed in percentage,
hence it's correctly positioned whatever the scale factor is;
- the font sizes are expressed in percentage too and the main font size
is scaled thanks a css var (--scale-factor);
- the rotation is now applied on the div annotationLayer;
- this patch improve the rendering of some strings where the glyph spacing
was not correct (it's a Firefox bug);
- it helps to simplify the code and it should slightly improve the update of
page (on zoom or rotation).
This appears to be a Microsoft-specific version of the regular Arial font, hence we simply map this to Helvetica in the same way that we treat many other Arial-named fonts.
This only adds the minimum entries required in order to render the referenced document correctly, rather than trying to support "all" Hebrew glyphs, to ensure that all lines in `getGlyphMapForStandardFonts` are covered by tests.
After the changes in PR 14998, these operators are now no-ops in the `src/display/canvas.js` code and should no longer be necessary.
Given that `beginAnnotations`/`endAnnotations` are not in the PDF specification, but are rather *custom* PDF.js operators, it seems reasonable to stop using them now that they've become no-ops.
In the "no fontSize available" code-path, in the `ChoiceWidgetAnnotation._getAppearance` method, we don't provide the necessary second argument when calling the `_getTextWidth`-method which will cause errors to be thrown.
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.
- 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.
