In the current `AnnotationLayer` implementation, Popup annotations require that the parent annotation have already been rendered (otherwise they're simply ignored).
Usually the annotations are ordered, in the `/Annots` array, in such a way that this isn't a problem, however there's obviously no guarantee that all PDF generators actually do so. Hence we simply ensure, when rendering the `AnnotationLayer`, that the Popup annotations are handled last.
Interestingly the viewer already seem to work correctly as-is, with workers disabled and a non-standard `verbosity` level.
Hence this is possibly Node.js specific, but given that the issue is lacking *both* the PDF file in question and a runnable test-case, so this patch is essentially a best-effort guess at what the problem could be.
- Re-factor the "incorrect encoding" check, since this can be easily achieved using the general `findNextFileMarker` helper function (with a suitable `startPos` argument).
- Tweak a condition, to make it easier to see that the end of the data has been reached.
- Add a reference test for issue 1877, since it's what prompted the "incorrect encoding" check.
The other image decoders, i.e. the JBIG2 and JPEG 2000 ones, are using the common helper function `readUint16`. Most likely, the only reason that the JPEG decoder is doing it this way is because it originated *outside* of the PDF.js library.
Hence we can simply re-factor `src/core/jpg.js` to use the common `readUint16` helper function, which is especially nice given that the functionality was essentially *duplicated* in the code.
This covers cases that the `--fix` command couldn't deal with, and in a few cases (notably `src/core/jbig2.js`) the code was changed to use block-scoped variables instead.

With the recent introduction of Prettier this sort of mass enabling of ESLint rules becomes a lot easier, since the code will be automatically reformatted as necessary to account for e.g. changed line lengths.
Note that this patch is generated automatically, by using the ESLint `--fix` argument, and will thus require some additional clean-up (which is done separately).
These two cases should have been whitelisted prior to re-formatting respectively had the comments fixed afterwards, however I unfortunately missed them because of the massive size of the diff.
This removes a couple of, thanks to preceeding code, unnecessary `typeof PDFJSDev` checks, and also fixes a couple of incorrectly implemented (my fault) checks intended for `TESTING` builds.
After PR 9566, which removed all of the old Firefox extension code, the `FIREFOX` build flag is no longer used for anything.
It thus seems to me that it should be removed, for a couple of reasons:
- It's simply dead code now, which only serves to add confusion when looking at the `PDFJSDev` calls.
- It used to be that `MOZCENTRAL` and `FIREFOX` was *almost* always used together. However, ever since PR 9566 there's obviously been no effort put into keeping the `FIREFOX` build flags up to date.
- In the event that a new, Webextension based, Firefox addon is created in the future you'd still need to audit all `MOZCENTRAL` (and possibly `CHROME`) build flags to see what'd make sense for the addon.
This particular JSDoc comment is fairly old and it also contains some now unrelated/confusing information.
The only way to *guarantee* that the PDF.js library works as expected is to correctly set the global `workerSrc`[1], hence giving the impression that the option isn't strictly necessary is thus incorrect.

[1] Since advertising the fallbackWorkerSrc functionality definitely seems like the *wrong* thing to do.
This way we'll benefit from the existing font caching, and can thus avoid re-creating a fallback font over and over again during parsing.
(Thece changes necessitated the previous patch, since otherwise breakage could occur e.g. with fake workers.)
This is beneficial in situations where the Worker is being re-used, for example with fake workers, since it ensures that things like font resources are actually released.
This rule is already enabled in mozilla-central, and helps avoid some confusing formatting, see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/9e45d74b956be046e5021a746b0c8912f1c27318/tools/lint/eslint/eslint-plugin-mozilla/lib/configs/recommended.js#209-210
With the recent introduction of Prettier some of the existing nested ternary statements became even more difficult to read, since any possibly helpful indentation was removed.
This particular ESLint rule wasn't entirely straightforward to enable, and I do recognize that there's a certain amount of subjectivity in the changes being made. Generally, the changes in this patch fall into three categories:
- Cases where a value is only clamped to a certain range (the easiest ones to update).
- Cases where the values involved are "simple", such as Numbers and Strings, which are re-factored to initialize the variable with the *default* value and only update it when necessary by using `if`/`else if` statements.
- Cases with more complex and/or larger values, such as TypedArrays, which are re-factored to let the variable be (implicitly) undefined and where all values are then set through `if`/`else if`/`else` statements.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-nested-ternary
In order to eventually get rid of SystemJS and start using native `import`s instead, we'll need to provide "complete" file identifiers since otherwise there'll be MIME type errors when attempting to use `import`.
For reasons that I now cannot even begin to understand, the non-standard SegoeUISymbol font was placed in the `getStdFontMap`. That honestly makes no sense, hence this patch which does what I *should* have done from the start.
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
Note that Prettier, purposely, has only limited [configuration options](https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html). The configuration file is based on [the one in `mozilla central`](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/.prettierrc) with just a few additions (to avoid future breakage if the defaults ever changes).
Prettier is being used for a couple of reasons:
- To be consistent with `mozilla-central`, where Prettier is already in use across the tree.
- To ensure a *consistent* coding style everywhere, which is automatically enforced during linting (since Prettier is used as an ESLint plugin). This thus ends "all" formatting disussions once and for all, removing the need for review comments on most stylistic matters.
Many ESLint options are now redundant, and I've tried my best to remove all the now unnecessary options (but I may have missed some).
Note also that since Prettier considers the `printWidth` option as a guide, rather than a hard rule, this patch resorts to a small hack in the ESLint config to ensure that *comments* won't become too long.
*Please note:* This patch is generated automatically, by appending the `--fix` argument to the ESLint call used in the `gulp lint` task. It will thus require some additional clean-up, which will be done in a *separate* commit.
(On a more personal note, I'll readily admit that some of the changes Prettier makes are *extremely* ugly. However, in the name of consistency we'll probably have to live with that.)
There's a fair number of (primarily) `Array`s/`TypedArray`s whose formatting we don't want disturb, since in many cases that would lead to the code becoming much more difficult to read and/or break existing inline comments.
*Please note:* It may be a good idea to look through these cases individually, and possibly re-write some of the them (especially the `String` ones) to reduce the need for all of these ignore commands.
Since bundlers, such as Webpack, cannot be told to leave `require` statements alone we are thus forced to jump through hoops in order to prevent these warnings in third-party deployments of the PDF.js library; please see [Webpack issue 8826](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) and libraries such as [require-fool-webpack](https://github.com/sindresorhus/require-fool-webpack).
*Please note:* This is based on the assumption that code running in Node.js won't ever be affected by e.g. Content Security Policies that prevent use of `eval`. If that ever occurs, we should revert to a normal `require` statement and simply document the Webpack warnings instead.
This patch reduces some duplication, by moving *all* fake worker loader code into the `setupFakeWorkerGlobal` function. Furthermore, the functions are simplified further by using `async`/`await` where appropriate.
There's no particularily good reason, as far as I can tell, to not support a custom worker path in Node.js environments (even if workers aren't supported). This patch thus make the Node.js fake worker loader code-path consistent with the fallback code-path used with *browser* fake worker loader.
Finally, this patch also deprecates[1] the `fallbackWorkerSrc` functionality, except in Node.js, since the user should *always* provide correct worker options since the fallback is nothing more than a best-effort solution.

[1] Although it probably shouldn't be removed until the next major version.
For performance reasons, and to avoid hanging the browser UI, the PDF.js library should *always* be used with web workers enabled.
At this point in time all of the supported browsers should have proper worker support, and Node.js is thus the only environment where workers aren't supported. Hence it no longer seems relevant/necessary to provide, by default, fake worker loaders for various JS builders/bundlers/frameworks in the PDF.js code itself.[1]
In order to simplify things, the fake worker loader code is thus simplified to now *only* support Node.js usage respectively "normal" browser usage out-of-the-box.[2]
*Please note:* The officially intended way of using the PDF.js library is with workers enabled, which can be done by setting `GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc`, `GlobalWorkerOptions.workerPort`, or manually providing a `PDFWorker` instance when calling `getDocument`.
---
[1] Note that it's still possible to *manually* disable workers, simply my manually loading the built `pdf.worker.js` file into the (current) global scope, however this's mostly intended for testing/debugging purposes.
[2] Unfortunately some bundlers such as Webpack, when used with third-party deployments of the PDF.js library, will start to print `Critical dependency: ...` warnings when run against the built `pdf.js` file from this patch. The reason is that despite the `require` calls being protected by *runtime* `isNodeJS` checks, it's not possible to simply tell Webpack to just ignore the `require`; please see [Webpack issue 8826](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) and libraries such as [require-fool-webpack](https://github.com/sindresorhus/require-fool-webpack).
During initial parsing of every PDF document we're currently creating a few `1 kB` strings, in order to find certain commands needed for initialization.
This seems inefficient, not to mention completely unnecessary, since we can just as well search through the raw bytes directly instead (similar to other parts of the code-base). One small complication here is the need to support backwards search, which does add some amount of "duplication" to this function.
The main benefits here are:
- No longer necessary to allocate *temporary* `1 kB` strings during initial parsing, thus saving some memory.
- In practice, for well-formed PDF documents, the number of iterations required to find the commands are usually very low. (For the `tracemonkey.pdf` file, there's a *total* of only 30 loop iterations.)
Note that most (reasonably) modern browsers have supported this for a while now, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ReadableStream#Browser_compatibility
By moving the polyfill into `src/shared/compatibility.js` we can thus get rid of the need to manually export/import `ReadableStream` and simply use it directly instead.
The only change here which *could* possibly lead to a difference in behavior is in the `isFetchSupported` function. Previously we attempted to check for the existence of a global `ReadableStream` implementation, which could now pass (assuming obviously that the preceding checks also succeeded).
However I'm not sure if that's a problem, since the previous check only confirmed the existence of a native `ReadableStream` implementation and not that it actually worked correctly. Finally it *could* just as well have been a globally registered polyfill from an application embedding the PDF.js library.
Given that the error in question is surfaced on the API-side, this patch makes the following changes:
- Updates the wording such that it'll hopefully be slightly easier for users to understand.
- Changes the plain `Error` to an `InvalidPDFException` instead, since that should work better with the existing Error handling.
- Adds a unit-test which loads an empty PDF document (and also improves a pre-existing `InvalidPDFException` message and its test-case).
Given how this method is currently used there shouldn't be any fonts loaded at the point in time where it's called, but it does seem like a bad idea to assume that that's always going to be the case. Since `PDFDocument.checkFirstPage` is already asynchronous, it's easy enough to simply await `Catalog.cleanup` here.
(The patch also makes a tiny simplification in a loop in `Catalog.cleanup`.)
