- 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.
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 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.
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.

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.
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.)
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`.)
In the PDF document in question, there's an ASCII85Decode inline image where the '>' part of EOD (end-of-data) marker is missing; hence the PDF document is corrupt.
Note that the XRef cache will only hold objects returned through `Parser.getObj`, and indirectly via `Lexer.getObj`. Since neither of those methods will ever return `undefined`, we can simply `assert` that when inserting objects into the cache and thus get rid of one function call when doing cache lookups.
Obviously this won't have a huge effect on performance, however `XRef.fetch` is usually called *a lot* in larger documents and this patch thus cannot hurt.
I'm slightly surprised that this hasn't actually caused any (known) bugs, but that may be more luck than anything else since it fortunately doesn't seem common for Streams to be defined inside of an 'ObjStm'.[1]
Note that in the `XRef.fetchUncompressed` method we're *not* caching Streams, and that for very good reasons too.
- Streams, especially the `DecodeStream` ones, can become *very* large once read. Hence caching them really isn't a good idea simply because of the (potential) memory impact of doing so.
- Attempting to read from the *same* Stream more than once won't work, unless it's `reset` in between, since using any method such as e.g. `getBytes` always starts at the current data position.
- Given that even the `src/core/` code is now fairly asynchronous, see e.g. the `PartialEvaluator`, it's generally impossible to assert that any one Stream isn't being accessed "concurrently" by e.g. different `getOperatorList` calls. Hence `reset`-ing a cached Streams isn't going to work in the general case.
All in all, I cannot understand why it'd ever be correct to cache Streams in the `XRef.fetchCompressed` method.
---
[1] One example where that happens is the `issue3115r.pdf` file in the test-suite, where the streams in question are not actually used for anything within the PDF.js code.
- Change all occurences of `var` to `let`/`const`.
- Initialize the (temporary) Arrays with the correct sizes upfront.
- Inline the `isCmd` check. Obviously this won't make a huge difference, but given that the check is only relevant for corrupt documents it cannot hurt.
Having ran the entire test-suite locally with these `Number.isInteger` checks removed, there wasn't a single test failure anywhere; see also PR 8857.
Hence everything points to this being completely unnecessary now, and by removing this code there's thus fewer function calls being made in `XRef.fetchUncompressed`.
The contents of this comment hasn't been correct for *years*, ever since the library was properly split into main/worker-threads, so it's probably high time for this to be updated.
For documents with a Linearization dictionary the computed `startXRef` position will be relative to the raw file, rather than the actual PDF document itself (which begins with `%PDF-`).
Hence it's necessary to subtract `stream.start` in this case, since otherwise the `XRef.readXRef` method will increment the position too far resulting in parsing errors.
*Please note:* A a similar change was attempted in PR 5005, but it was subsequently backed out (in PR 5069) since other parts of the patch caused issues.
With these changes, it's possible to replace repeated function calls within a loop with just a single function call and subsequent assignment instead.
As we've seen in numerous other cases, avoiding unnecessary function calls is never a bad thing (even if the effect is probably tiny here).
With these changes we also avoid potentially two back-to-back `isDict` checks when evaluating possible Page nodes, and can also no longer accidentally pick a dictionary with an incorrect /Type.
Rather than having to store a `PromiseCapability` on the `ObjectLoader` instances, we can simply convert `_walk` to be `async` and thus have the same functionality with native JavaScript instead.
When the end of data has already been reached for the various Streams, the `getByte` methods will return `-1` to signal that to the caller. Note however that the current position obviously won't be incremented in this case, meaning that the `peekByte` methods will in this case *incorrectly* decrement the position.
Thankfully the corresponding `peekBytes` shouldn't be affected by this bug, since they decrement the current position with the *actually* returned number of bytes.
I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this blatant oversight, but that doesn't mean this shouldn't be fixed :-)
This will allow us to attempt to recover as much as possible of a page, rather than immediately failing, when a broken/unsupported ColorSpace is encountered. This patch thus extends the framework added in PRs such as e.g. 8240 and 8922, to also cover parsing of ColorSpaces.
Currently, for data in `ChunkedStream` instances, the `getMissingChunks` method is used in a couple of places to determine if data is already available or if it needs to be loaded.
When looking at how `ChunkedStream.getMissingChunks` is being used in the `ObjectLoader` you'll notice that we don't actually care about which *specific* chunks are missing, but rather only want essentially a yes/no answer to the "Is the data available?" question.
Furthermore, when looking at how `ChunkedStream.getMissingChunks` itself is implemented you'll notice that it (somewhat expectedly) always iterates over *all* chunks.
All in all, using `ChunkedStream.getMissingChunks` in the `ObjectLoader` seems like an unnecessary "heavy" and roundabout way to obtain a boolean value. However, it turns out there already exists a `ChunkedStream.allChunksLoaded` method, consisting of a *single* simple check, which seems like a perfect fit for the `ObjectLoader` use cases.
In particular, once the *entire* PDF document has been loaded (which is usually fairly quick with streaming enabled), you'd really want the `ObjectLoader` to be as simple/quick as possible (similar to e.g. loading a local files) which this patch should help with.
Note that I wouldn't expect this patch to have a huge effect on performance, but it will nonetheless save some CPU/memory resources when the `ObjectLoader` is used. (As usual this should help larger PDF documents, w.r.t. both file size and number of pages, the most.)
I completely overlooked this in PR 11281, but you obviously need to make similar changes in `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` since it will otherwise ignore valid Blend Modes.
