We introduced the use of OffscreenCanvas in #14754 and this patch aims
to use them for all kind of images.
It'll slightly improve performances (and maybe slightly decrease memory use).
Since an image can be rendered in using some transfer maps but because of
OffscreenCanvas we don't have the underlying pixels array the transfer maps
stuff is re-implemented in using the SVG filter feComponentTransfer.
This is done to support upcoming viewer-changes, and in order to prevent third-party users from outright breaking things we'll simply ignore too large values.
While reviewing recent patches, I couldn't help but noticing that we now have a lot of call-sites that manually access the `PageViewport.viewBox`-property.
Rather than repeating that verbatim all over the code-base, this patch adds a lazily computed and cached getter for this data instead.
*Please note:* I don't really expect that this is will be an observable change, since virtually all PDF documents already order e.g. /MediaBox and /CropBox entries correctly.
By normalizing boundingBoxes already on the worker-thread, we can be sure that even a corrupt document won't cause issues.
Note how we're passing the `view`-getter to the `PartialEvaluator.getTextContent` method, in order to detect textContent which is outside of the page, hence it makes sense to ensure that it's formatted as expected.
Furthermore, by normalizing this once on the worker-tread we should no longer have to worry about a possibly negative width/height in the `PageViewport` constructor.
Finally, the patch also simplifies the `view`-getter a little bit.
The reason for the issue is that we use the generic `getFilenameFromUrl` helper function, which was originally intended for regular URLs.
For the filenames we're dealing with in FileAttachments, we really only want to strip the path when one exists[1].

[1] See [bug 1230933](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1230933) for an example of such a case.
With modern EcmaScript features, we can define these fields directly instead. Please note that for backwards compatibility purposes they are still public as before, however note that this functionality is *disabled* by default (see the `pdfBug` API option).
Also, we can (slightly) simplify the two loops used in the `toString` method.
This was moved into the `src/display/`-folder in PR 15110, for the initial editor-a11y patch. However, with the changes in PR 15237 we're again only using `binarySearchFirstItem` in the `web/`-folder and it thus seem reasonable to move it back there.
The primary reason for moving it back is that `binarySearchFirstItem` is currently exposed in the public API, and we always want to avoid that unless it's either PDF-related functionality or code that simply must be shared between the `src/`- and `web/`-folders. In this case, `binarySearchFirstItem` is a general helper function that doesn't really satisfy either of those alternatives.
This patch doesn't structurally change the text layer: it just adds some aria-owns
attributes to some spans.
The aria-owns attribute expect to have an element id, hence it's why it adds back an
id on the element rendering an annotation, but this id is built in using crypto.randomUUID
to avoid any potential issues with the hash in the url.
The elements in the annotation layer are moved into the DOM in order to have them in the
same "order" as they visually are.
The overall goal is to help screen readers to present to the user the annotations as
they visually are and as they come in the text flow.
It is clearly not perfect, but it should improve readability for some people with visual
disabilities.
- In the annotationEditorLayer, reorder the editors in the DOM according
the position of the elements on the screen;
- add an aria-owns attribute on the "nearest" element in the text layer
which points to the added editor.
- for example in Dusk theme (Windows 11), black appears to be white, so
the user will draw something in white. But if they want to print or
save the used color must be black.
- fix a bug with the color input which only accepts hex string colors;
- adjust outline color of the selected/hovered editors in HCM.
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.
*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

As part of the changes/improvement in PR 14092, we're no longer using the `addLinkAttributes` directly in e.g. the AnnotationLayer-code.
Given that the helper function is now *only* used in the viewer, hence it no longer seems necessary to expose it through the official API.
*Please note:* It seems somewhat unlikely that third-party users were relying *directly* on the helper function, which is why it's not being exported as part of the viewer components. (If necessary, we can always change this later on.)
This patch helps reduce some duplication, given that we now have a few essentially identical `addLinkAttributes` call-sites in the code-base.
To prevent runtime errors in the Annotation/XFA-layer code, we'll warn if a custom/incomplete `PDFLinkService` is being used (limited to GENERIC builds).
Rather than re-computing this value in a number of different places throughout the code-base[1], we can expose this in the API via the existing `PixelsPerInch`-structure instead.
There's also been feature requests asking for the old `CSS_UNITS` viewer constant to be made accessible, such that it could be used in third-party implementations.
I suppose that it could be argued that it's somewhat confusing to place a unitless property in `PixelsPerInch`, however given that the `PDF_TO_CSS_UNITS`-property is defined strictly in terms of the existing properties this is hopefully deemed reasonable.

[1] These include:
- The viewer, with the `CSS_UNITS` name.
- The reference-tests.
- The display-layer, when rendering images; see PR 13991.
While some of the output looks worse to my eye, this behavior more
closely matches what I see when I open the PDFs in Adobe acrobat.

Once we're finally able to get rid of SystemJS, which is unfortunately still blocked on [bug 1247687](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687), we might also want to clean-up (or even completely remove) the `BaseException` abstraction and simply extend `Error` directly instead.
At that point we'd need to (explicitly) set the `name` on each class anyway, so this patch is essentially preparing for future clean-up. Furthermore, after the `BaseException` abstraction was added there's been *multiple* issues filed about third-party minification breaking our code since `this.constructor.name` is not guaranteed to always do what you intended.
While hard-coding the strings indeed feels quite unfortunate, it's likely the "best" solution to avoid the problem described above.
This patch provides an overall simpler *and* more consistent way of handling the `viewport` parameter during printing of XFA forms, since it's now again guaranteed to always be an instance of `PageViewport`.
Furthermore, for anyone attempting to e.g. implement custom printing of XFA forms this probably cannot hurt either.
This is first of all consistent with all of the other (similar) factories, and secondly it will also simplify a future addition of a corresponding `NodeSVGFactory` (if that's ever deemed necessary).
Given that these factories are being used in *different* files, for Browser respectively Node.js implementations, it seems reasonable to move them into their own file instead.
The rotation handling that's currently living in `PDFViewerApplication` is *very* old, and pre-dates the introduction of the viewer components by years.
As can be seen in the `BaseViewer.pagesRotation` setter, we're not actually normalizing the rotation as intended and instead rely on the caller to handle that correctly. This is first of all inconsistent, given how other setters are implemented, and secondly it could also lead to the rotation being set to a value outside of the `[0, 360)`-range.
Finally, for improved consistency the rotation handling in `PageViewport` is updated similarly. Please note that this case, it's *not* changing the pre-existing logic.
While there is nothing *outright* wrong with the existing implementation, it can however lead to increased memory usage in one particular case (that I completely overlooked when implementing this):
For "data:"-URLs, which by definition contains the entire PDF document and can thus be arbitrarily large, we obviously want to avoid sending, storing, and/or logging the "raw" docBaseUrl in that case.
To address this, this patch makes the following changes:
- Ignore any non-string in the `docBaseUrl` option passed to `getDocument`, since those are unsupported anyway, already on the main-thread.
- Ignore "data:"-URLs in the `docBaseUrl` option passed to `getDocument`, to avoid having to send what could potentially be a *very* long string to the worker-thread.
- Parse the `docBaseUrl` option *directly* in the `BasePdfManager`-constructors, on the worker-thread, to avoid having to store the "raw" docBaseUrl in the first place.
It seems reasonable to place this alongside the *similar* `getFilenameFromUrl` helper function. This way, with the changes in the next patch, we also avoid having to expose the `isDataScheme` function in the API itself and we instead expose `getPdfFilenameFromUrl` in the API (which feels overall more appropriate).
There's built-in ESLint rule, see `sort-imports`, to ensure that all `import`-statements are sorted alphabetically, since that often helps with readability.
Unfortunately there's no corresponding rule to sort `export`-statements alphabetically, however there's an ESLint plugin which does this; please see https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-sort-exports
The only downside here is that it's not automatically fixable, but the re-ordering is a one-time "cost" and the plugin will help maintain a *consistent* ordering of `export`-statements in the future.
*Note:* To reduce the possibility of introducing any errors here, the re-ordering was done by simply selecting the relevant lines and then using the built-in sort-functionality of my editor.
I completely missed this previously, but we obviously should remove the scriptElement as well to *really* clean-up everything properly.
Given that there's multiple existing usages of `loadScript` in the code-base, the safest/quickest solution seemed to be to have call-sites opt-in to remove the scriptElement using a new parameter.
*This is a recent regression, which I stumbled upon while working on cleaning-up the gulpfile related to `pdf.sandbox.js` building.*
By placing the `ColorConverters` functionality in the `src/display/display_utils.js` file, you end up including a *significant* chunk of the `pdf.js` file in the built `pdf.scripting.js`/`pdf.sandbox.js` files.
Given that I cannot imagine that this was actually intended, since it inflates the built files with unnecessary/unused code, this moves `ColorConverters` to a new file instead (thus breaking the dependencies).
To hopefully reduce the risk future bugs, along these lines, a big comment is also placed at the top of the new file.
Finally, the `ColorConverters` is converted to a class with static methods, since this felt slightly cleaner overall.
Previously this rule has been enabled in the `web/` folder, and in select files in the `src/` sub-folders.
Note that a number of the files in the `src/display/` folder were already enforcing the `no-var` rule, and thanks to Prettier the necessary re-writing will be (mostly) handled automatically.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-var
