Given the differences between XFA documents and "normal" PDF documents, we don't support editing of the former ones. Hence, when a XFA-document is opened, we temporarily disable the editor-buttons.
- Ensure that the modified-warning won't be displayed, when navigating away from the viewer, if the user has added custom Annotations and then *removed all* of them.
- Ensure that the *initial* editor-buttons state, i.e. the `toggled`-class, is correctly displayed in the toolbar when then viewer loads.
- Tweak the CSS-classes for the editor-buttons, such that they use the correct focus/hover-rules (similar to the sidebar-buttons).
- Remove a no longer accurate comment from the `BaseViewer.annotationEditorMode`-setter.
- Address a couple of *smaller* outstanding review comments, including some re-formatting changes, from PR 14976.
Currently, when non-standard `pageColors` are specified, the thumbnails will look inconsistent depending on how they're created.
The thumbnails that are created by downsizing the *page* canvases will obviously use the `pageColors` as intended, however the thumbnails which are rendered *directly* will always use the default colors.
Over time, as we've been introducing JavaScript code to modify CSS variables, we've been adding shorthand properties to various classes to reduce unnecessary repetition when accessing the document-styles.
Rather than repeating this in multiple places, it seems overall simpler to just introduce a constant and re-use that throughout the viewer instead.
This new CSS variable will allow us to simplify a couple of different viewer components, since we no longer need to use JavaScript-based hacks and can directly set the CSS rules instead. In particular:
- The `BaseViewer`-handling, used as part of the code that will center pages *vertically* in PresentationMode, can be simplified.
By using CSS to control the height of the "dummy"-page we avoid unnecessarily invalidating the scale-value, which can reduce *some* unneeded re-rendering while PresentationMode is active.
- The `SecondaryToolbar.#setMaxHeight`-method, and its associated parameters, are no longer necessary and can be completely removed.
Note that in order for things to work correctly in general, the new `--viewer-container-height` CSS variable must potentially be updated on any window-based "resize"-event (even when there's no zooming). While this is currently only done in the default viewer, that shouldn't be an issue since neither PresentationMode nor Toolbar-functionality is included in the "viewer components".
- Use Canvas & CanvasText color when they don't have their default value
as background and foreground colors.
- The colors used to draw (stroke/fill) in a pdf are replaced by the bg/fg
ones according to their luminance.
In PR 14112 usage of this *internal* method was reduced, and it thus can't hurt to clean-up things a little bit more.
Note in particular that we can simplify the call-sites by directly passing in the already available `PDFPageView`-instance, since the `id`-property those contain can replace the previous `pageNumber`-parameter[1].
Given that the method name has always been prefixed with an underscore it was thus never intended to be "public", hence we can now enforce that with modern ECMAScript features.
---
[1] There's already a bunch of other spots, throughout the viewer-code, where we assume that the `PDFPageView.id`-property contains proper page *numbers* (and not e.g. indices); note how we initialize the `PDFPageView`-instances in the `BaseViewer.setDocument`-method.
Given that we're (ab)using spread-modes in order to ensure that pages are centered *vertically* in PresentationMode, this re-factoring simplifies the code slightly.
Furthermore, in the event that we *possibly* want to try and support spread-modes in PresentationMode[1] this re-factoring will also prevent future duplication.
---
[1] Note that I'm not particularly keen on doing that, since documents with varying page sizes will be annoying to handle.
This special-case was added because the original PresentationMode-implementation used some CSS-tricks to hide everything except the current page. With the changes in PR 14112, which added a PAGE scroll-mode, many of the old PresentationMode-specific hacks could thus be removed from both the JS and CSS code.
This patch is yet another (small) clean-up step, to reduce the number of PresentationMode special-cases used throughout the `BaseViewer`. Note in particular that `BaseViewer.update` now works just fine in PresentationMode[1], and that we only need to ensure that the active page won't *accidentally* change because of the PresentationMode-specific zooming that occurs during page-switching.
---
[1] In the event that we ever want to try and support spread-modes in PresentationMode, which I'm really not keen on doing since documents with varying page sizes will be annoying to handle, these changes would be necessary as well.
The spread-mode code in `BaseViewer.#ensurePageViewVisible`-method was initially copied from the `BaseViewer._updateSpreadMode`-method, which means that it's slightly more complicated than actually necessary.
In particular, in the PAGE scroll-mode there can only be *one* spread active at a time and we thus don't need to handle insertion of multiple spread-divs.
This CSS variable is only used together with the `annotationCanvasMap`-functionality in the canvas-code, however its value can be *trivially* computed by using the older `--zoom-factor` CSS variable together with the `PixelsPerInch`-structure.
Rather than having *two different* CSS variables that are this closely linked, it seems better to simplify things by using just one CSS variable instead.
The `pdfOpenParams` parameter has never really made sense in PresentationMode, since e.g. the zoom-value doesn't (generally) agree with the value chosen by the user prior to entering PresentationMode.
This has never mattered all that much, since the `viewBookmark`-button isn't visible in PresentationMode (nor is any other toolbar button for that matter). However, in the `PDFHistory`-implementation we're currently forced to handle this case specifically since we don't want to populate the browser history with nonsensical state.
Hence it makes overall sense, as far as I'm concerned, to tweak the "updateviewarea" event to include a *simplified* `pdfOpenParams` parameter when PresentationMode is active. Given that the `viewer components` don't include PresentationMode functionality, this change thus shouldn't matter for third-party users.
This method was originally added specifically to work-around bugs/issues related to PresentationMode in Google Chrome. Note that prior to PR 14112 we were using some CSS hacks to only show the current page in PresentationMode, and that could lead to the `getVisibleElements` function not always finding the correct elements.
However, after the changes in PR 14112 we're now using the Page-scrolling mode in PresentationMode and consequently there'll only be *a single* page visible at a time. Hence then `BaseViewer._getCurrentVisiblePage` helper method should no longer be needed, and when testing (locally) in Google Chrome everything seems to work correctly now.
Besides converting `Catalog.getPageDict` to an `async` method, thus simplifying the code, this patch also allows us to pro-actively fix a existing issue.
Note how we're looking up References in such a way that `MissingDataException`s won't cause trouble, however it's *technically possible* that the entries (i.e. /Count, /Kids, and /Type) in a /Pages Dictionary could actually be indirect objects as well. In the existing code this could lead to *some*, or even all, pages failing to load/render as intended.
In practice that doesn't *appear* to happen in real-world PDF documents, but given all the weird things that PDF software do I'd prefer to fix this pro-actively (rather than waiting for a bug report).
With `Catalog.getPageDict` being `async` this is now really simple to address, however I didn't want to introduce a bunch more *unconditional* asynchronicity in this method if it could be avoided (since that could slow things down). Hence we'll *synchronously* lookup the *raw* data in a /Pages Dictionary, and only fallback to asynchronous data lookup when a Reference was encountered.
In addition to the above, this patch also makes the following notable changes:
- Let `Catalog.getPageDict` *consistently* reject with the actual error, regardless of what data we're fetching. Previously we'd "swallow" the actual errors except when looking up Dictionary entries, which is inconsistent and thus seem unfortunate. As can be seen from the updated unit-tests this change is API-observable, hence why the patch is tagged `[api-minor]`.
- Improve the consistency of the Dictionary /Type-checks in both the `Catalog.getPageDict` and `Catalog.getAllPageDicts` methods.
In `Catalog.getPageDict` there's a fallback code-path where we're *incorrectly* checking the /Page Dictionary for a /Contents-entry, which is wrong since a /Page Dictionary doesn't need to have a /Contents-entry in order to be valid.
For consistency the `Catalog.getAllPageDicts` method is also updated to handle errors in the /Type-lookup correctly.
- Reduce the `PagesCountLimit.PAUSE_EAGER_PAGE_INIT` viewer constant, to further improve loading/rendering performance of the *second* page during initialization of very long documents; PR 14359 follow-up.
*This addresses the following case missing from the previous patch:*
The viewer is loaded in an *active* window/tab, and enough time is allowed to pass in order to allow rendering to start. However, if the user then switches to another tab (or another program) *before* rendering has finished, the "load" event also needs to be unblocked.
Given that `requestAnimationFrame` is being used, see the `src/diplay/api.js` file, an inactive window/tab means that rendering will not run and we'll thus not fetch all pages. The latter is a requirement for the "load" event to be unblocked, in the MOZCENTRAL-version of, the default viewer.
This patch is a *partial* solution, since it only addresses the following situations:
- A *background* tab (containing the viewer) is reloaded, e.g. via the tab-bar context menu.
- The viewer is loaded in a active tab, but the user switches away from it (or switches to another program window) *before* rendering has started.
This provides a work-around for badly generated PDF documents that contain *negative* /FitH parameters (in the referenced issue the value `-32768` is used).
This patch, first of all, removes circular dependencies in the TypeScript definitions. Secondly, it also moves `RenderingStates` into `web/ui_utils.js` to break another type-dependency and directly use the `XfaLayerBuilder` during XFA-printing.
Finally, note that this patch *slightly* reduces the size of the default viewer (e.g. in the `MOZCENTRAL` build) by not having to bundle code which is completely unused.
This patch circumvents the issues seen when trying to update TypeScript to version `4.5`, by "simply" fixing the broken/missing JSDocs and `typedef`s such that `gulp typestest` now passes.
As always, given that I don't really know anything about TypeScript, I cannot tell if this is a "correct" and/or proper way of doing things; we'll need TypeScript users to help out with testing!
*Please note:* I'm sorry about the size of this patch, but given how intertwined all of this unfortunately is it just didn't seem easy to split this into smaller parts.
However, one good thing about this TypeScript update is that it helped uncover a number of pre-existing bugs in our JSDocs comments.
In PR 14114 this was only added to the default viewer, which means that in the viewer components the user would need to *manually* implement /Lang handling. This was (obviously) a bad choice, since the viewer components already support e.g. structTrees by default; sorry about overlooking this!
To avoid having to make *two* `getMetadata` API-calls[1] very early during initialization, in the default viewer, the API will now cache its result. This will also come in handy elsewhere in the default viewer, e.g. by reducing parsing when opening the "document properties" dialog.
---
[1] This not only includes a round-trip to the worker-thread, but also having to re-parse the /Metadata-entry when it exists.
By making this API-call *unconditionally*, we introduce a (slight) delay in the initialization of *all* documents.
That seems quite unfortunate, since `pdfjs.enablePermissions` is off by default, and it thus seem better only do the API-call when actually needed; sorry about this!
For encrypted PDF documents without the required permissions set, this patch adds support for disabling of form editing. However, please note that it also requires that the `pdfjs.enablePermissions` preference is set to `true`[1] (since PDF document permissions could be seen as user hostile).
Based on https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G6.1942134, this condition hopefully makes sense.

This patch is essentially *another* continuation of PR 11263, which tried to improve loading/initialization performance of *very* large/long documents.
For most documents, unless they're *very* long, we'll eagerly initialize all of the pages in the viewer. For shorter documents having all pages loaded/initialized early provides overall better performance/UX in the viewer, however there's cases where it can instead *hurt* performance.
For documents with a couple of thousand pages[1], the parsing and pre-rendering of the *second* page of the document can be delayed (quite a bit). The reason for this is that we trigger `PDFDocumentProxy.getPage` for *all pages* early during the viewer initialization, which causes the worker-thread to be swamped with handling (potentially) thousands of `getPage`-calls and leaving very little time for other parsing (such as e.g. of operatorLists).
To address this situation, this patch thus proposes temporarily "pausing" the eager `PDFDocumentProxy.getPage`-calls once a threshold has been reached, to give the worker-thread a change to handle other requests.[2]
Obviously this may *slightly* delay the "pagesloaded" event in longer documents, but considering that it's already the result of asynchronous parsing that'll hopefully not be seen as a blocker for these changes.[3]
---
[1] A particularly problematic example is https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/files/876321/kjv.pdf (16 MB large), which is a document with 2236 pages and a /Pages-tree that's only *one* level deep.
[2] Please note that I initially considered simply chaining the `PDFDocumentProxy.getPage`-calls, however that'd slowed things down for all documents which didn't seem appropriate.
[3] This patch will *hopefully* also make it possible to re-visit PR 11312, since it seems that changing `Catalog.getPageDict` to an `async` method wasn't the problem in itself. Rather it appears that it leads to slightly different timings, thus exacerbating the already existing issues with the worker-thread being overloaded by `getPage`-calls.
Having recently worked with that method, there's a couple of (very old) issues that I'd also like to address and having `Catalog.getPageDict` be `async` would simplify things a great deal.
*This patch can be tested e.g. with the `poppler-85140-0.pdf` document from the test-suite.*
For some sufficiently corrupt documents the `getDocument` call will succeed, but fetching even the very first page fails. Currently we only print error messages (in the console) from the `{BaseViewer, PDFThumbnailViewer}.setDocument` methods, but don't actually provide these errors to allow the viewer to handle them properly.
In practice this means that the GENERIC viewer won't display the `errorWrapper`, and in the MOZCENTRAL viewer the *browser* loading indicator is never hidden (since we never unblock the "load" event).
This patch is essentially a continuation of PR 11263, which tried to improve loading/initialization performance of *very* large/long documents.
Note that browsers, in general, don't handle a huge amount of DOM-elements very well, with really poor (e.g. sluggish scrolling) performance once the number gets "large". Furthermore, at least in Firefox, it seems that DOM-elements towards the bottom of a HTML-page can effectively be ignored; for the PDF.js viewer that means that pages at the end of the document can become impossible to access.
Hence, in order to improve things for these *very* large/long documents, this patch will now enforce usage of the (recently added) PAGE-scrolling mode for these documents. As implemented, this will only happen once the number of pages *exceed* 15000 (which is hopefully rare in practice).
While this might feel a bit jarring to users being *forced* to use PAGE-scrolling, it seems all things considered like a better idea to ensure that the entire document actually remains accessible and with (hopefully) more acceptable performance.
Fixes [bug 1588435](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1588435), to the extent that doing so is possible since the document contains 25560 pages (and is 197 MB large).
*This patch can be tested e.g. with the `sizes.pdf` document in the test-suite.*
While this patch isn't necessarily the best solution, e.g. it might be possible to solve this with *only* CSS, it's what I was able to come up with to address an old issue.
The solution here re-uses the `spread`-class in PresentationMode, since that one already takes care of centering pages *vertically*, together with a dummy-page that takes up the entire height of the window.
Finally, some PresentationMode-related CSS-rules are also simplified slightly, since the changes in PR 14112 (using Page-scrolling) allows some clean-up here.
The issue that this patch fixes has existed ever since the viewer was first re-factored into components, however it only really affects the `disableAutoFetch = true` mode.
By default we're fetching all pages in `BaseViewer.setDocument`, and as part of the parsing/initialization we're also populating the `PDFLinkService`-pagesRefCache. The purpose of that cache is to make navigating to any internal destinations faster, by not having to (asynchronously) lookup the pageNumber via the API when handling the destination.
In comparison, when the `disableAutoFetch = true` mode is being used we're instead *lazily* initializing the pages in the `BaseViewer.#ensurePdfPageLoaded`-method. For some reason, that I can only assume is a simple oversight, we're not attempting to update the `PDFLinkService`-pagesRefCache in that case.
In the `BaseViewer` this cache is mostly relevant in the `disableAutoFetch = true` mode, since the pages are being initialized *lazily* in that case.
In the `PDFThumbnailViewer` this cache is mostly used for thumbnails that are actually being rendered, as opposed to those created directly from the "regular" pages.
Please note that I'm not suggesting that we remove these caches because they're only used in some situations, but rather because they're for all intents and purposes actually *redundant*. In the API itself, we're already caching both the page-promises and the actual pages themselves on the `WorkerTransport`-instance.
Hence these viewer-caches aren't really necessary in practice, and adds what to me mostly seems like an unnecessary level of indirection.[1]
Given that the viewer now relies on caching in the API itself, this patch also adds a new unit-test to ensure that page-caching works (and keep working) as expected.
---
[1] In the `WorkerTransport.getPage`-method the parameter is being validated on every call, but that's hardly enough code to warrant keeping the "duplicate" caches in the viewer in my opinion.
It shouldn't be necessary to iterate through *all* pages when using a non-default `spreadMode`, since we already know which page(s) should become visible.
This code is a left-over from the initial (local) implementation that resulted in PR 14112, however I forgot to clean-up some things such as e.g. this loop.
Also fixes an outdated comment, see PR 14204 which removed the mentioned data-structure.
This patch preserves the old behaviour of appending a `loadingIcon`-div to all pages that are not yet loaded/rendered. However, the actual `loadingIcon`-spinner (i.e. the `loading-icon.gif` image) will only be displayed on *visible* pages to improve performance.
To avoid having to iterate through all pages in the document, which doesn't seem like a good idea for a PDF document with thousands of pages, we use a combination of the currently visible *and* cached pages to toggle the `loadingIcon`-spinner.
- First step to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1737260;
- several interactive pdfs use the possibility to hide/show buttons to show different icons;
- render pushbuttons on their own canvas and then insert it the annotation_layer;
- update test/driver.js in order to convert canvases for pushbuttons into images.
Reporting telemetry, in Firefox, includes using `JSON.stringify` on the data and then sending an event to the `PdfStreamConverter.jsm`-code.
In that code the event is handled and `JSON.parse` is used to retrieve the data, and in the "pageInfo"-case we'll then proceed to ignore everything except *the first* such event; see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/24fac1ad31fb9c6e9c4c767c6a7ff45d226078f3/toolkit/components/pdfjs/content/PdfStreamConverter.jsm#509-514
All-in-all, sending the "pageInfo" telemetry for each rendered page is thus unnecessary and this patch makes the viewer send it only *once* instead.
This relies on the fact that `Set`s preserve the insertion order[1], which means that we can utilize an iterator to access the *first* stored view.
Note that in the `resize`-method, we can now move the visible pages to the back of the buffer using a single loop (hence we don't need to use the `moveToEndOfArray` helper function any more).
---
[1] This applies to `Map`s as well, although that's not entirely relevant here.
The `PDFPageViewBuffer`-code is very important for the correct function of the viewer, but it's currently not tested at all.
While the `PDFPageViewBuffer` is obviously intended to be used with `PDFPageView`-instances, it only accesses a couple of `PDFPageView` properties/methods and consequently it's fairly easy to unit-test this code with dummy-data.
These unit-tests should help improve our confidence in this code, and will also come in handy with other changes that I'm working on (regarding modernizing and re-factoring the `PDFPageViewBuffer`-code).
Note how in `PDFPageViewBuffer.resize` we're manually iterating through the visible pages in order to build a Set of the visible page `id`s. By instead moving the building of this Set into the `getVisibleElements` helper function, as part of the existing parsing, this code becomes *ever so slightly* more efficient.
Furthermore, more direct access to the visible page `id`s also come in handy in other parts of the viewer as well.
In the `BaseViewer.isPageVisible` method we no longer need to loop through the visible pages, but can instead directly check if the pageNumber is visible.
In the `PDFRenderingQueue.getHighestPriority` method, when checking for "holes" in the page layout, we can also avoid some unnecessary look-ups this way.
