There doesn't seem to be anything definitive about this in
the spec, but from experimenting, it seems acrobat lets
PDFs override the widths of the standard fonts.
As can be seen in `src/core/fonts.js`, this method only accepts *one* parameter, hence it's somewhat difficult to understand what the Annotation-code is actually attempting to do here.
The only possible explanation that I can imagine, is that the intention was initially to call `Font.charToGlyph` *directly* instead. However, note that that'd would not actually have been correct, since that'd ignore one level of font-caching (see `this.charsCache`). Hence the unused arguments are removed, in `src/core/annotation.js`, and the `Font.charToGlyph` method is now marked as "private" as intended.
This simplifies/consolidates the ESLint configuration slightly in the `src/` folder, and prevents the addition of any new files where `var` is being used.[1]
Hence we no longer need to manually add `/* eslint no-var: error */` in files, which is easy to forget, and can instead disable the rule in the `src/core/` files where `var` is still in use.
---
[1] Obviously the `no-var` rule can, in the same way as every other rule, be disabled on a case-by-case basis where actually necessary.
In issue 12120, the font has a 1,0 cmap and is marked symbolic which
according to the spec means we should directly use the cmap instead of
the extra steps that are defined in 9.6.6.4.
However, just fixing that caused bug 1057544 to break. The font in bug
1057544 has a 0,1 cmap (Unicode 1.1) which we were not using, but is
easy to support. We're also easily able to support some of the other
unicode cmaps, so I added those as well.
There was also a second issue with bug 1057544, the cmap doesn't have
a mapping for the "quoteright" glyph, but it is defined in the post
table. To handle this, I've moved post table as a fallback for any
font that has an encoding.
Some fonts have loca tables that aren't sorted or use 0 as an offset to
signal a missing glyph. This fixes the bad loca tables by sorting them
and then rewriting the loca table and potentially re-ordering the glyf
table to match.
Fixes#11131 and bug 1650302.
Note how the `getFontID`-method in `src/core/fonts.js` is *completely* global, rather than properly tied to the current document. This means that if you repeatedly open and parse/render, and then close, even the *same* PDF document the `fontID`s will still be incremented continuously.
For comparison the `createObjId` method, on `idFactory`, will always create a *consistent* id, assuming of course that the document and its pages are parsed/rendered in the same order.
In order to address this inconsistency, it thus seems reasonable to add a new `createFontId` method on the `idFactory` and use that when obtaining `fontID`s. (When the current `getFontID` method was added the `idFactory` didn't actually exist yet, which explains why the code looks the way it does.)
*Please note:* Since the document id is (still) part of the `loadedName`, it's thus not possible for different documents to have identical font names.
Rather than creating a new `Stream` just to validate the OS/2 TrueType table, it's simpler/better to just pass in a reference to the font data and use that instead (similar to other TrueType helper functions).
There's a handful of cases in the code where the intention is simply to advance the `Stream` position, but rather than only doing that the code instead fetches/computes a Uint16 value (and without using the result for anything).
There's a handful of cases in the code where the intention is simply to advance the `Stream` position, but rather than only doing that the code instead fetches the bytes in question (and without using the result for anything).
*Please note:* These changes were done automatically, using the `gulp lint --fix` command.
This rule is already enabled in mozilla-central, see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/567b68b8ff4b6d607ba34a6f1926873d21a7b4d7/tools/lint/eslint/eslint-plugin-mozilla/lib/configs/recommended.js#103-104
The main advantage, besides improved consistency, of this rule is that it reduces the size of the code (by 3 bytes for each case). In the PDF.js code-base there's close to 8000 instances being fixed by the `dot-notation` ESLint rule, which end up reducing the size of even the *built* files significantly; the total size of the `gulp mozcentral` build target changes from `3 247 456` to `3 224 278` bytes, which is a *reduction* of `23 178` bytes (or ~0.7%) for a completely mechanical change.
A large number of these changes affect the (large) lookup tables used on the worker-thread, but given that they are still initialized lazily I don't *think* that the new formatting this patch introduces should undo any of the improvements from PR 6915.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/dot-notation
Please note that these changes were done automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`.
Given that the major version number was increased, there's a fair number of (primarily whitespace) changes; please see https://prettier.io/blog/2020/03/21/2.0.0.html
In order to reduce the size of these changes somewhat, this patch maintains the old "arrowParens" style for now (once mozilla-central updates Prettier we can simply choose the same formatting, assuming it will differ here).
For years now, the `Font.exportData` method has (because of its previous implementation) been exporting many properties despite them being completely unused on the main-thread and/or in the API.
This is unfortunate, since among those properties there's a number of potentially very large data-structures, containing e.g. Arrays and Objects, which thus have to be first structured cloned and then stored on the main-thread.
With the changes in this patch, we'll thus by default save memory for *every* `Font` instance created (there can be a lot in longer documents). The memory savings obviously depends a lot on the actual font data, but some approximate figures are: For non-embedded fonts it can save a couple of kilobytes, for simple embedded fonts a handful of kilobytes, and for composite fonts the size of this auxiliary can even be larger than the actual font program itself.
All-in-all, there's no good reason to keep exporting these properties by default when they're unused. However, since we cannot be sure that every property is unused in custom implementations of the PDF.js library, this patch adds a new `getDocument` option (named `fontExtraProperties`) that still allows access to the following properties:
- "cMap": An internal data structure, only used with composite fonts and never really intended to be exposed on the main-thread and/or in the API.
Note also that the `CMap`/`IdentityCMap` classes are a lot more complex than simple Objects, but only their "internal" properties survive the structured cloning used to send data to the main-thread. Given that CMaps can often be *very* large, not exporting them can also save a fair bit of memory.
- "defaultEncoding": An internal property used with simple fonts, and used when building the glyph mapping on the worker-thread. Considering how complex that topic is, and given that not all font types are handled identically, exposing this on the main-thread and/or in the API most likely isn't useful.
- "differences": An internal property used with simple fonts, and used when building the glyph mapping on the worker-thread. Considering how complex that topic is, and given that not all font types are handled identically, exposing this on the main-thread and/or in the API most likely isn't useful.
- "isSymbolicFont": An internal property, used during font parsing and building of the glyph mapping on the worker-thread.
- "seacMap": An internal map, only potentially used with *some* Type1/CFF fonts and never intended to be exposed in the API. The existing `Font.{charToGlyph, charToGlyphs}` functionality already takes this data into account when handling text.
- "toFontChar": The glyph map, necessary for mapping characters to glyphs in the font, which is built upon the various encoding information contained in the font dictionary and/or font program. This is not directly used on the main-thread and/or in the API.
- "toUnicode": The unicode map, necessary for text-extraction to work correctly, which is built upon the ToUnicode/CMap information contained in the font dictionary, but not directly used on the main-thread and/or in the API.
- "vmetrics": An array of width data used with fonts which are composite *and* vertical, but not directly used on the main-thread and/or in the API.
- "widths": An array of width data used with most fonts, but not directly used on the main-thread and/or in the API.
Given that the `vertical` property is always accessed on the main-thread, ensuring that the property is explicitly defined seems like the correct thing to do since it also avoids boolean casting elsewhere in the code-base.
With `Font.exportData` now only exporting white-listed properties, there should no longer be any reason to not use standard shadowing in the `Font.spaceWidth` method.
Furthermore, considering the amount of other changes to the code-base over the years it's not even clear to me that the special-case was necessary any more (regardless of the preceding patches).
A number of *internal* font properties, which only make sense on the worker-thread, were previously exported. Some of these properties could also contain potentially large Arrays/Objects, which thus unnecessarily increases memory usage since we're forced to copy these to the main-thread and also store them there.
This patch stops exporting the following font properties:
- "_shadowWidth": An internal property, which was never intended to be exported.
- "charsCache": An internal cache, which was never intended to be exported and doesn't make any sense on the main-thread. Furthermore, by the time `Font.exportData` is called it's usually `undefined` or a mostly empty Object as well.
- "cidEncoding": An internal property used with (some) composite fonts.
As can be seen in the `PartialEvaluator.translateFont` method, `cidEncoding` will only be assigned a value when the font dictionary has an "Encoding" entry which is a `Name` (and not in the `Stream` case, since those obviously cannot be cloned).
All-in-all this property doesn't really make sense on the main-thread and/or in the API, and note also that the resulting `cMap` property is (partially) available already.
- "fallbackToUnicode": An internal map, part of the heuristics used to improve text-selection in (some) badly generated PDF documents with simple fonts. This was never intended to be exposed on the main-thread and/or in the API.
- "glyphCache": An internal cache, which was never intended to be exported and which doesn't make any sense on the main-thread. Furthermore, by the time `Font.exportData` is called it's usually a mostly empty Object as well.
- "isOpenType": An internal property, used only during font parsing on the worker-thread. In the *very* unlikely event that an API consumer actually needs that information, then `fontType` should be a (generally) much better property to use.
Finally, in the (hopefully) unlikely event that any of these properties become necessary on the main-thread, re-adding them to the white-list is easy to do.
This patch addresses an existing, and very long standing, TODO in the code such that it's no longer possible to send arbitrary/unnecessary font properties to the main-thread.
Furthermore, by having a white-list it's also very easy to see *exactly* which font properties are being exported.
Please note that in its current form, the list of exported properties contains *every* possible enumerable property that may exist in a `Font` instance.
In practice no single font will contain *all* of these properties, and e.g. embedded/non-embedded/Type3 fonts will all differ slightly with respect to what properties are being defined. Hence why only explicitly set properties are included in the exported data, to avoid half of them being `undefined`, which however should not be a problem for any existing consumer (since they'd already need to handle those cases).
Since a fair number of these font properties are completely *internal* functionality, and doesn't make any sense to expose on the main-thread and/or in the API, follow-up patch(es) will be required to trim down the list. (I purposely included all properties here for brevity and future documentation purposes.)
*Please note:* This patch on its own is *not* sufficient to address the underlying problem in the referenced issue, hence why no test-case is included since the *actual* bug still needs to be fixed.
As can be seen in the specification, https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-string.fromcodepoint, `String.fromCodePoint` will throw a RangeError for invalid code points.
In the event that a CMap, in a composite font, contains invalid data and/or we fail to parse it correctly, it's thus possible that the glyph mapping that we build end up with entires that cause `String.fromCodePoint` to throw and thus `Font.charToGlyph` to break.
If that happens, as is the case in issue 11768, significant portions of a page/document may fail to render which seems very unfortunate.
While this patch doesn't fix the underlying problem, it's hopefully deemed useful not only for the referenced issue but also to prevent similar bugs in the future.
The `sizes` property doesn't appear to have been used ever since the code was first split into main/worker-threads, which is so many years ago that I wasn't able to easily find exactly in which PR/commit it became unused.
The `encoding` property is always assigned the `properties.baseEncoding` value, however the `PartialEvaluator` doesn't actually compute/set that value any more. Again it was difficult to determine when it became unused, but it's been that way for years.
Given the way that "classes" were previously implemented in PDF.js, using regular functions and closures, there's a fair number of false positives when the `no-shadow` ESLint rule was enabled.
Note that while *some* of these `eslint-disable` statements can be removed if/when the relevant code is converted to proper `class`es, we'll probably never be able to get rid of all of them given our naming/coding conventions (however I don't really see this being a problem).
*This is part of a series of patches that will try to split PR 11566 into smaller chunks, to make reviewing more feasible.*
Once all the code has been fixed, we'll be able to eventually enable the ESLint no-shadow rule; see https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-shadow
Trying to enable the ESLint rule `no-shadow`, against the `master` branch, would result in a fair number of errors in the `Glyph` class in `src/core/fonts.js`.
Since the glyphs are exposed through the API, we can't very well change the `isSpace` property on `Glyph` instances. Thus the best approach seems, at least to me, to simply rename the `isSpace` helper function to `isWhiteSpace` which shouldn't cause any issues given that it's only used in the `src/core/` folder.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
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.
Fixes#11403
The PDF uses the non-embedded Type1 font Helvetica. Character codes 194 and 160 (`Â` and `NBSP`) are encoded as `.notdef`. We shouldn't show those glyphs because it seems that Acrobat Reader doesn't draw glyphs that are named `.notdef` in fonts like this.
In addition to testing `glyphName === ".notdef"`, we must test also `glyphName === ""` because the name `""` is used in `core/encodings.js` for undefined glyphs in encodings like `WinAnsiEncoding`.
The solution above hides the `Â` characters but now the replacement character (space) appears to be too wide. I found out that PDF.js ignores font's `Widths` array if the font has no `FontDescriptor` entry. That happens in #11403, so the default widths of Helvetica were used as specified in `core/metrics.js` and `.nodef` got a width of 333. The correct width is 0 as specified by the `Widths` array in the PDF. Thus we must never ignore `Widths`.
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`.
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.
Obviously this won't look exactly right, but considering that the PDF file doesn't bother embedding non-standard fonts this is the best that we can do here.
Sometimes we also used `@return`, but `@returns` is what the JSDoc
documentation recommends. Even though `@return` works as an alias, it's
good to use the recommended syntax and to be consistent within the
project.
Hopefully this patch makes sense, and in order to reduce the regression risk the implementation ensures that only completely missing widths are being replaced.
The `src/shared/util.js` file is being bundled into both the `pdf.js` and `pdf.worker.js` files, meaning that its code is by definition duplicated.
Some main-thread only utility functions have already been moved to a separate `src/display/display_utils.js` file, and this patch simply extends that concept to utility functions which are used *only* on the worker-thread.
Note in particular the `getInheritableProperty` function, which expects a `Dict` as input and thus *cannot* possibly ever be used on the main-thread.
After PR 9340 all glyphs are now re-mapped to a Private Use Area (PUA) which means that if a font fails to load, for whatever reason[1], all glyphs in the font will now render as Unicode glyph outlines.
This obviously doesn't look good, to say the least, and might be seen as a "regression" since previously many glyphs were left in their original positions which provided a slightly better fallback[2].
Hence this patch, which implements a *general* fallback to the PDF.js built-in font renderer for fonts that fail to load (i.e. are rejected by the sanitizer). One caveat here is that this only works for the Font Loading API, since it's easy to handle errors in that case[3].
The solution implemented in this patch does *not* in any way delay the loading of valid fonts, which was the problem with my previous attempt at a solution, and will only require a bit of extra work/waiting for those fonts that actually fail to load.
*Please note:* This patch doesn't fix any of the underlying PDF.js font conversion bugs that's responsible for creating corrupt font files, however it does *improve* rendering in a number of cases; refer to this possibly incomplete list:
[Bug 1524888](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1524888)
Issue 10175
Issue 10232
---
[1] Usually because the PDF.js font conversion code wasn't able to parse the font file correctly.
[2] Glyphs fell back to some default font, which while not accurate was more useful than the current state.
[3] Furthermore I'm not sure how to implement this generally, assuming that's even possible, and don't really have time/interest to look into it either.
In many cases in the code you don't actually care about the index itself, but rather just want to know if something exists in a String/Array or if a String starts in a particular way. With modern JavaScript functionality, it's thus possible to remove a number of existing `indexOf` cases.
The `Font.loading` property is only ever used *once* in the code, whereas `Font.missingFile` is more widely used. Furthermore the name `loading` feels, at least to me, slight less clear than `missingFile`. Finally, note that these two properties are the inverse of each other.
There have been lots of problems with trying to map glyphs to their unicode
values. It's more reliable to just use the private use areas so the browser's
font renderer doesn't mess with the glyphs.
Using the private use area for all glyphs did highlight other issues that this
patch also had to fix:
* small private use area - Previously, only the BMP private use area was used
which can't map many glyphs. Now, the (much bigger) PUP 16 area can also be
used.
* glyph zero not shown - Browsers will not use the glyph from a font if it is
glyph id = 0. This issue was less prevalent when we mapped to unicode values
since the fallback font would be used. However, when using the private use
area, the glyph would not be drawn at all. This is illustrated in one of the
current test cases (issue #8234) where there's an "ä" glyph at position
zero. The PDF looked like it rendered correctly, but it was actually not
using the glyph from the font. To properly show the first glyph it is always
duplicated and appended to the glyphs and the maps are adjusted.
* supplementary characters - The private use area PUP 16 is 4 bytes, so
String.fromCodePoint must be used where we previously used
String.fromCharCode. This is actually an issue that should have been fixed
regardless of this patch.
* charset - Freetype fails to load fonts when the charset size doesn't match
number of glyphs in the font. We now write out a fake charset with the
correct length. This also brought up the issue that glyphs with seac/endchar
should only ever write a standard charset, but we now write a custom one.
To get around this the seac analysis is permanently enabled so those glyphs
are instead always drawn as two glyphs.
The current font type/subtype detection code is quite inconsistent/unwieldy. In some cases it will simply assume that the font dictionary is correct, in others it will somewhat "arbitrarily" check the actual font file (more of these cases have been added over the years to fix specific bugs).
As is evident from e.g. issue 9949, the font type/subtype detection code is continuing to cause issues. In an attempt to get rid of these hacks once and for all, this patch instead re-factors the type/subtype detection to *always* parse the font file.
Please note that, as far as I can tell, we still appear to need to rely on the composite font detection based on the font dictionary. However, even if the composite/non-composite detection would get it wrong, that shouldn't really matter too much given that there's basically only two different code-paths (for "TrueType-like" vs "Type1-like" fonts).
The font in the PDF is marked as a CIDFontType0, but the font file is
actually a true type font. To fully address this issue we should really
peek into the font file and try to determine what it is. However, this
is the first case of this issue, so I think this solution is acceptable for
now.
*I was feeling bored; so this is a very quick, and somewhat naive, attempt at fixing the bug.*
The breaking error, i.e. `Error during font loading: invalid array length`, was thrown when attempting to re-size the `stack` to a *negative* length when parsing the CALL functions.
Fixes https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1473809.
There's a number of issues with the fonts in the referenced PDF file. First of all, they contain broken `ToUnicode` data (`NUL` bytes all over the place). However even if you skip those, the `ToUnicode` data appears to contain nothing but a `IdentityH` CMap which won't help provide a proper glyph mapping.
The real issue actually turns out to be that the PDF file uses the "Calibri" font[1], but doesn't include any font files. Since that one isn't a standard font, and uses a fairly different CID to GID map compared to the standard fonts, we're not able to render the file even remotely correct.
To work around this, I'm thus proposing that we include a (incomplete) glyph map for Calibri, and fallback to the standard Helvetica font. Obviously this isn't going to look perfect, but it's really the best that we can hope to achieve given that the PDF file is missing the necessary font data.
Finally, please note that none of the PDF readers I've tried (Adobe Reader, PDFium in Chrome) were able to extract the text (which isn't very surprising, given the broken `ToUnicode` data).
Fixes 9195.
---
[1] According to Wikipedia, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibri, Calibri is (primarily) a Windows font.
In some fonts, the included `ToUnicode` data is incomplete causing text-selection to not work properly. For simple fonts that contain encoding data, we can manually build a `ToUnicode` map to attempt to improve things.
Please note that since we're currently using the `ToUnicode` data during glyph mapping, in an attempt to avoid rendering regressions, I purposely didn't want to amend to original `ToUnicode` data for this text-selection edge-case.
Instead, I opted for the current solution, which will (hopefully) give slightly better text-extraction results in PDF file with incomplete `ToUnicode` data.
According to the PDF specification, see [section 9.10.2](http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G8.1873172):
> A conforming reader can use these methods, in the priority given, to map a character code to a Unicode value.
> ...
Reading that paragraph literally, it doesn't seem too unreasonable to use *different* methods for different charcodes.
Fixes 8229.
In issue #8707, there's a char code mapped to a non-
existing glyph which shouldn't be drawn. However, we
saw it was missing and tried to then use the post table and
end up mapping it incorrectly.
This illuminated a problem with issue #5704 and bug
893730 where glyphs disappeared after above fix. This was
from the cmap returning the wrong glyph id. Which in turn was
caused because the font had multiple of the same type of cmap
table and we were choosing the last one. Now, we instead
default to the first one. I'm unsure if we should instead be
merging the multiple cmaps, but using only the first one works.
The initial issue with #8255 was I added a missing glyphs
check to adjustMapping, but this caused us to skip re-mapping
a glyph if the fontCharCode was a missingGlyph which in turn
caused us to overwrite a valid glyph id with an invalid one. While
fixing this, I also added a warning if the private use area is full since
this also accidentally happened when I made a different mistake.
This brought to light a number of issues where we map
missing glyphs to notdef, but often the notdef is actually defined
and then ends up being drawn. Now the glyphs don't get
mapped in toFontChar and so they are not drawn by the canvas.
Fixing the above brought up another issue though in bug1050040.pdf.
In this PDF, the font fails to load by the browser and before we were still
drawing the glyphs because it looked like the font had them, but with the fixes
above the glyphs showed up as missing so we didn't attempt draw them. To
fix this, I now throw an error when the loca table is in really bad shape and
we fall back to trying to use a system font. We now also use this fall back if
there are any format errors during converting fonts.
This replaces `assert` calls with `throw new FormatError()`/`throw new Error()`.
In a few places, throwing an `Error` (which is what `assert` meant) isn't correct since the enclosing function is supposed to return a `Promise`, hence some cases were changed to `Promise.reject(...)` and similarily for `createPromiseCapability` instances.
*As mentioned the last time that I touched this particular part of the font code, I'm sincerely hope that this doesn't cause any regressions!*
However, the patch passes all tests added in PRs 5770, 6270, and 7904 (and obviously all other tests as well). Furthermore, I've manually checked all the issues/bugs referenced in those PRs without finding any issues.
Fixes 8480.
Please note that the `glyphlist.js` and `unicode.js` files are converted to CommonJS modules instead, since Babel cannot handle files that large and they are thus excluded from transpilation.
Please see http://eslint.org/docs/rules/object-shorthand.
For the most part, these changes are of the search-and-replace kind, and the previously enabled `no-undef` rule should complement the tests in helping ensure that no stupid errors crept into to the patch.
This patch basically reverts one aspect of TrueType (3, 1) cmap parsing to the state prior to PR 4259. After that PR, a number of regressions occurred in this particular code-path, which necessitated a number of follow-ups such as PRs 5703, 5743, and 6425.
The empirical data suggests, at least to me, that we should always prefer a (3, 1) cmap for TrueType fonts when they have an encoding, regardless of the Symbolic font flag.
Obviously this patch passes all unit/font/reference tests locally, and I made sure that all the PRs mentioned above landed with test-cases included.
However, in my opinion, there's still a very real possibility that this patch could potentially cause new regressions.
Given that the PDF file in bug 1337429 has been broken for almost *three* years before anyone noticed, and considering that the code-path in question has been the source of numerous regressions, I do *not* intend to request uplift of this patch to previous Firefox versions (assuming that it's even accepted).

Having the opening/closing braces on the same line can often make the code slightly more difficult to read, in particular for `if`/`else if` statements, compared to using new lines.
This patch also, for consistency with `mozilla-central`, enables the [`no-iterator`](http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-iterator) rule. Note that this rule didn't require a single code change.
