The reasons for making this change are:
- This property is not, nor has it ever been, used anywhere in the PDF.js display-layer.
- Related to the previous point, the format of the `defaultAppearance`-string is such that it'd be difficult to use it as-is in the display-layer anyway.
- It (usually) contains the "raw" appearance-string, from the PDF document, which is neither parsed nor validated and could thus be bogus.
- We now expose a `defaultAppearanceData`-property, which is first of all used in the display-layer and secondly contains actually parsed/validated data.
- In the event that a third-party implementation needs the `defaultAppearance`-string, it could be easily constructed from the recently added `defaultAppearanceData`-property.
All-in-all, I'm thus suggesting that we stop exposing an unused and unnecessary property on all Annotation-instances.
* JS - Handle correctly hierarchy of fields
- it aims to fix#13132;
- annotations can inherit their actions from the parent field;
- there are some fields which act as a container for other fields:
- they can be access through js so need to add them with an empty type (nothing in the spec about that but checked in Acrobat);
- calculation order list (CO) can reference them so need make them through this.getField;
- getArray method must return kids.
- field values are number, string, ... depending of their type but nothing in the spec on how to know what's the type:
- according to the comment for Canonical Format: https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#page=461
- it seems that this "type" can be guessed from js action Format (when setting a type in Acrobat DC, the only affected thing is this action).
- util.scand with an empty string returns the current date.
Based on this compatibility information, given that IE 11 is now *explicitly* unsupported, we should no longer need to bundle a `URL` polyfill in any builds: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL#browser_compatibility
Note that the caveat listed for older Safari-versions doesn't apply to any code in the PDF.js library, since we never call `new URL(url, undefined)` in the code-base.
Note also that Node.js has a web-compatible `URL` implementation, which according to the "History" section at https://nodejs.org/api/url.html#url_the_whatwg_url_api has been available since Node.js `10.0.0` (according to https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases/ that branch is one month away from being EOL-ed).
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.
- implement few positioning properties: position, width, height, anchor;
- implement font element;
- implement fill element (used by font) and its children (linear, radial, ...);
- font property is inherited from ancestor container (see https://www.pdfa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/XFA-3_3.pdf#page=43) so let CSS handles that stuff;
- in order to reduce the number of properties to set, only set non default properties and put the default in CSS;
- set a background to some containers to be able to see them (will be removed in a future commit).
Similar to the existing `annotationsPromise` and `_jsActionsPromise` properties, the new `_xfaPromise` should obviously also be reset, since otherwise you might end up holding onto a lot of data for pages that are no longer active.
(That caching wasn't present in the original version of PR 13069, which is why I didn't spot it until now.)
- add an option to enable XFA rendering if any;
- for now, let the canvas layer: it could be useful to implement XFAF forms (embedded pdf in xml stream for the background and xfa form for the foreground);
- ui elements in template DOM are pretty close to their html counterpart so we generate a fake html DOM from template one:
- it makes easier to translate template properties to html ones;
- it makes faster the creation of the html element in the main thread.
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).
This extends PR 13033 slightly, with a heuristic to support corrupt PDF documents where the `LineAnnotation`s have an empty /Rect-entry. Please note that while I have no idea if this is "correct", this patch at least makes us output the same /BBox as re-saving in Adobe Reader does.

A significant portion of the code-base has now been converted to use `let`/`const`, rather than `var`, hence it should be possible to simply enable the ESLint `no-var` rule globally.
This way we can ensure that new code won't accidentally use `var`, and it also removes the need to manually enable the rule in various folders.
Obviously it makes sense to continue the efforts to replace `var`, but that should probably happen on a file and/or folder basis.
Please note that this patch excludes the following code:
- The `extensions/` folder, since that seemed easiest for now (and I don't know exactly what the support situation is for the Chromium-extension).
- The entire `external/` folder is ignored, since most of it's currently excluded from linting.
For the code that isn't imported from elsewhere (and should be ignored), we should probably (at some point) bring the code up to the same linting/formatting standard as the rest of the code-base.
- Various files in the `test/` folder are ignored, as necessary, since the way that a lot of this code is loaded will require some care (or perhaps larger re-factoring) when removing `var` usage.
While the JSDocs have never advertised `getDocument` as supporting Node.js `Buffer`s, that apparently doesn't stop users from passing such data structures to `getDocument`.
In theory the existing `instanceof Uint8Array` check ought to have caught Node.js `Buffer`s, however for reasons that I don't even pretend to understand that check actually passes. Hence this patch which, *only* in Node.js environments, will special-case `Buffer`s to hopefully provide a slightly better out-of-the-box behaviour in Node.js environments[1].
---
[1] Although I'm not sure that we necessarily want to advertise this in the JSDocs, given the specialized use-case.
Replace the `objectFromEntries` helper function with an `objectFromMap` one instead, and simplify the data lookup in the AnnotationStorage.getValue method

Rather than first checking if data exists before fetching it from storage, we can simply do the lookup directly and then check its value.
Note that this follows the same pattern as utilized in the `AnnotationStorage.setValue` method.
Given that it's only used with `Map`s, and that it's currently implemented in such a way that we (indirectly) must iterate through the data *twice*, some simplification cannot hurt here.
Note that the only reason that we're not using `Object.fromEntries(...)` directly, at each call-site, is that that one won't guarantee that a `null` prototype is being used.
Now that we have scripting support, warning about e.g. JavaScript actions doesn't seem necessary anymore. Especially considering that scripting-related actions are/will not be parsed by the `Catalog.parseDestDictionary` method anyway, since it's intended for handling "simple" actions.
All of this code predates the existence of native JS classes, however we can now clean this up a bit. This patch thus let us remove some variable "shadowing" from the code.
This helper function is first of all only called *twice*, and secondly it also leads to unnecessary intermediate allocations given how the `TypedArray`s are handled.
Hence we can simply inline this small function, and thus directly allocate the combined `TypedArray` instead.
The `compareByteArrays` is first of all duplicated in multiple closures in the `src/core/crypto.js` file. Secondly, despite its name, it's also functionally equivalent to the now existing `isArrayEqual` helper function.
The `isArrayEqual` helper function is changed to use a standard `for`-loop, rather than `Array.prototype.every`, since that ought to be slightly more efficient given that we're now using it with (potentially) larger data.
All of this code predates the existence of native JS classes, however we can now clean this up a bit. This patch thus let us remove some variable "shadowing" from the code.
Note that this particular helper function is, with the exception of the `GENERIC` default viewer and the (unsupported) SVG-backend, mostly unused at this point in time. Hence we should be able to clean-up this helper function slightly.
Also, fixes a small inconsistency in the `SVGGraphics` initialization in the viewer, by passing in the `disableCreateObjectURL` compatibility-option. Given that the SVG-backend isn't officially supported/recommended this shouldn't have been an issue, but given that I spotted this it can't hurt to fix it.
Note how the `PDFAttachmentViewer` handles PDF file attachments specially, by opening them in a new window/tab, rather than forcing them to be downloaded. This is done to improve the overall UX, since browsers in general are able to handle PDF files internally.
However, for file *annotations* we're currently not attempting to do the same thing and are instead just downloading them directly. In order to unify the behaviour, without having to duplicate a lot of code, the opening of PDF file attachments is thus moved into a new `DownloadManager.openOrDownloadData` method.
- strokeColor corresponds to borderColor;
- support fillColor and textColor;
- support colors on the different annotations;
- fix typo in aforms (+test).
This is similar to the other methods, and the only reason for this not having been done originally is that the `cancel` functionality is a later addition.
Rather than converting the `AnnotationStorage`-data to an Object, before sending it to the worker-thread, we should be able to simply send the internal `Map` directly.
The "structured clone algorithm" doesn't have a problem with `Map`s, however the `LoopbackPort` used when workers are *disabled* (e.g. in Node.js environments) didn't use to support them. With PR 12997 having lifted that restriction, we should now be able to simply send the `AnnotationStorage`-data as-is rather than having to iterate through it to first create an Object.
*Please note:* The changes in `src/core/annotation.js` could have been a lot more compact if we were able to use optional chaining in the `src/core` folder. Unfortunately that's still not possible, since SystemJS is being used in the development viewer (i.g. `gulp server`) and fixing that is *still* blocked by [bug 1247687](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687).
*Please note:* The `defer` parameter has been enabled by default ever since PR 9777 (in 2018), which first shipped in PDF.js release `2.0.943`.
With workers *disabled*, e.g. in Node.js environments, this has been used ever since without any problems reported[1].
The impetus for this change was that I happened to notice that *if* the `LoopbackPort` was used with synchronous event dispatching, we'd simply send that data as-is to the listeners. This created an inconsistency in the data returned from the `pdf.worker.js` file, since `postMessage` used with *actual* workers (or the `LoopbackPort` with `defer = true`) will ignore/throw when encountering unclonable data.
Originally my intention was simply to just call `cloneValue` regardless of the event dispatching used in `LoopbackPort`, however looking at the use-cases (or lack thereof) of the `LoopbackPort` it seemed reasonable to simply remove the `defer` parameter instead.
This patch is tagged "[api-minor]" since the `LoopbackPort` is still exposed in the API, although I really hope that no third-party is using this (since disabling workers leads to bad performance).
Finally, this patch changes a `forEach` loop to `for...of` and makes uses of optional changing in existing code.

[1] As evident by the `npm test` command run by Github Actions, and previously by Travis.
With the previous patch this function is now *only* accessed on the worker-thread, hence it's no longer necessary to include it in the *built* `pdf.js` file.
With the previous patch this functionality is now *only* accessed on the worker-thread, hence it's no longer necessary to include it in the *built* `pdf.js` file.
The only reason, as far as I can tell, for parsing the Metadata on the main-thread is how it was originally implemented. When Metadata support was first implemented, it utilized the [`DOMParser`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/DOMParser) which isn't available in workers.
Today, with the custom XML-parser being used, that's no longer an issue and it seems reasonable to move the Metadata parsing to the worker-thread[1], since that's where all parsing should happen (for performance reasons).
Based on these changes, we'll be able to reduce the now unnecessary duplication of the XML-parser (and related code) in both of the *built* `pdf.js`/`pdf.worker.js` files.
Finally, this patch changes the `_repair` method to use "Array + join" rather than string concatenation.
---
[1] This needed the previous patch, to enable sending of `Map`s between threads with workers disabled.
I happened to look at this code, and I can't for the life of me figure out why I didn't just implement it like this patch in the first place (since the current format feels overly verbose).
The following checks are all unneeded, and could easily cause confusion when reading the code. (All of them are my fault as well, since I've sometimes added those checks without really thinking about the surrounding code.)
- In `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` there cannot be any `MissingDataException`s thrown, given that the `Page.getOperatorList` method waits for all the necessary /Resources to load first. Furthermore, note also that if an error is thrown from `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` then it'd completely break rendering of that page, since any errors thrown from `Page.getOperatorList` are simply sent to the main-thread.
- In `PartialEvaluator.handleColorN` there cannot be any `MissingDataException`s thrown, given that again the `Page.getOperatorList` method waits for all the necessary /Resources to load before operatorList parsing starts.
- In `XRef.readXRef` there cannot be any `MissingDataException`s thrown, given that we're *explicitly* requesting (and waiting for) the entire document in `pdfManagerReady` (in `src/core/worker.js`) before re-parsing of a corrupt document starts.
* don't set a value in annotationStorage by default:
- having an undefined when the annotation is rendered for saving/printing means nothing has changed so use normal appearance
- aims to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1681687
* change the way to compute font size when this one is null in DA:
- make fontSize proportional to line height
- in multiline case, take into account the number of lines for text entered to adapt the font size
- use ascent of the fallback font instead of the one from pdf to position spans
- use TextMetrics.fontBoundingBoxAscent if available or
- use a basic heuristic to guess ascent in drawing char on a canvas
- compute ascent as a ratio of font height
The *third* page of the referenced PDF document currently fails to render completely, since one of its font files fail to load.
Since that error isn't handled, a large part of the text is thus missing which looks quite bad. By "replacing" the font data with an *empty* stream, we'll thus be able to fallback to rendering the text with a standard font (instead of using `ErrorFont`). While there's obviously no guarantee that things will look perfect, actually rendering the text at all should be an improvement in general.
Also, print a warning in `PartialEvaluator.loadFont` when the `PartialEvaluator.translateFont` method rejects, since that'd have helped debug/fix the issue faster.
*As far as I can tell, this has been broken ever since PR 3289 (back in 2013) without anyone noticing.*
For any non-`MissingDataException` errors encountered in `ObjectLoader._walk`, we're simply throwing immediately which thus has the potential to *completely* break rendering of an entire page.
In practice this is obviously only an issue for PDF documents which are in one way or another corrupt, since that's the only way that `XRef.fetch` will throw non-`MissingDataException` errors. To make matters worse these errors are *intermittent*, since they can only occur if the document is still loading when the `ObjectLoader`-code runs (note the early return in `ObjectLoader.load`).
Please note that we cannot simply catch the error and let "normal" parsing continue in `ObjectLoader._walk`, since that could lead to errors elsewhere given that resources "below" the current one (in the graph) might not be checked as intended then.
All-in-all, the only way to make absolutely sure that we won't cause *unexpected* `MissingDataException`s somewhere else in the code-base is to fallback to fetching the *entire* document in this edge-case.
- in order to evaluate SOM expressions nodes and their attributes must be checked in the same order as in the xml;
- add an object XFAObjectArray with a parameter max to handle multiple children with the same name.
- the parser is base on a class extending XMLParserBase
- it handle xml namespaces:
* each namespace is assocated with a builder
* builder builds nodes belonging to the namespace
* when a node is inserted in the parent namespace compatibility is checked (if required)
- to avoid name collision between xml names and object properties, use Symbol.
Given that `FontFaceObject` is not exposed in the public API, but only accessed internally, there's no need to assume that a `FontFaceObject`-instance is ever initialized without `onUnsupportedFeature` being provided. This is also consistent with the `BaseFontLoader` implementation.
Given that we'll only cache `/XObject`s of the `Image`-type globally, we can utilize that in `PartialEvaluator.getTextContent` as well. This way, in cases such as e.g. issue 12098, we can avoid having to fetch/parse `/XObject`s that we already know to be `Image`s. This is helpful, since `Stream`s are not cached on the `XRef` instance (given their potential size) and the lookup can thus be somewhat expensive in general.
Also, skip a redundant `RefSetCache.has` check in the `GlobalImageCache.getData` method.
The widths property should be an object to match what metrics returns.
In ZapfDingbats.pdf I was getting a data clone error with pdfBug enabled.
In buildCharCodeToWidth() there was an encoding with the name "at" which
is also the name of a method on an array. buildCharCodeToWidth assumes an
object is passed in, so when it checked for the "at" property, it found the
method and copied it over.
This only seemed to affect Firefox.
When implementing the `GlobalImageCache` functionality I was mostly worried about the effect of *very large* images, hence the maximum number of cached images were purposely kept quite low[1].
However, there's one fairly obvious problem with that approach: In documents with hundreds, or even thousands, of *small* images the `GlobalImageCache` as implemented becomes essentially pointless.
Hence this patch, where the `GlobalImageCache`-implementation is changed in the following ways:
- We're still guaranteed to be able to cache a *minimum* number of images, set to `10` (similar as before).
- If the *total* size of all the cached image data is below a threshold[2], we're allowed to cache additional images.
This patch thus *improve*, but doesn't completely fix, issue 12098. Note that that document is created by a *very poor* PDF generator, since every single page contains the *entire* document (with all of its /Resources) and to create the individual pages clipping is used.[3]
---
[1] Currently set to `10` images; imagine what would happen to overall memory usage if we encountered e.g. 50 images each 10 MB in size.
[2] This value was chosen, somewhat randomly, to be `40` megabytes; basically five times the [maximum individual image size per page](6249ef517d/src/display/api.js (L2483-L2484)).
[3] This surely has to be some kind of record w.r.t. how badly PDF generators can mess things up...
Note how, in the `if (this.stateManager.stateStack.length !== 0) {` branch, we're attempting to access the not yet defined variable[1] `args`. If this code-path is ever hit, an Error will be thrown and parsing will thus be aborted immediately (likely leading to e.g. rendering bugs).
Note that I found this purely by accident, since I happened to glance at the LGTM report. However, I've since found that the error is also present during the unit-test[2] and with this patch we're actually testing the *intended* thing here.
As part of fixing this, and to avoid re-introducing a similar bug in the future, we'll now instead always reset `args.length` *before* attempting to read the next operator.
Also, we can use the existing `EvaluatorPreprocessor.savedStatesDepth` getter to simplify the save/restore detection a tiny bit.
---
[1] The ESLint rule `no-use-before-define` would have helped catch this problem, but unfortunately we cannot enable that without quite a bit of refactoring all over the code-base.
[2] The unit-test was updated such that it would fail in the `master`-branch.
With the changes in PR 12831, it's no longer necessary to keep track of the `fontName`-string separately since it's available through the `_defaultAppearanceData`-property as well.
As can be seen in 2cba290361/src/core/evaluator.js (L986) the `gStateObj` (which is actually an Array despite its name), is wrapped in Array when it's inserted into the OperatorList. Hence we obviously need to take this into account when accessing it in `TranslatedFont._removeType3ColorOperators`; this mistake happened because we don't have any test-cases for this particular code-path as far as I know.
By changing this a `shadow`ed getter, we can simply access it directly and not worry about it being initialized. I have no idea why I didn't just implement it this way in the first place.

The reason for this is that the fonts in question are non-embedded ArialNarrow, which we just replace with Helvetica which obviously is not narrow. Given that the font replacement isn't a perfect fit for non-embedded ArialNarrow, we still need to re-measure the glyph widths in this case.
Note first of all how the `PDFDocumentProxy.getJSActions` method in the API caches the result, which makes repeated lookups cheap enough to not really be an issue.
Secondly, with the previous patch, we're now only dispatching "pageopen"/"pageclose"-events when there's actually a sandbox that listens for them.
All-in-all, with these changes we can thus simplify the default-viewer "pageopen"-event handler a fair bit.
* add a comment to explain how minimal linewidth is computed.
* when context.linewidth < 1 after transform, firefox and chrome
don't render in the same way (issue #12810).
* set lineWidth to 1 after transform and before stroking
- aims fix issue #12295
- a pixel can be transformed into a rectangle with both heights < 1.
A single rescale leads to a rectangle with dim equals to 1 and
the other to something greater than 1.
* change the way to render rectangle with null dimensions:
- right now we rely on the lineWidth set before "re" but
it can be set after "re" and before "S" and in this case the rendering
will be wrong.
- render such rectangles as a single line.
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.
Given that the PDF document in the issue contains the same very large JPEG image *three* times, this patch includes a test-case where only the first page has been extracted from it.
Given that the API will now, after PR 12039, automatically pick the correct factories to use depending on the environment (browser vs. Node.js), we can utilize that in the unit-tests as well. This way we don't have to manually repeat the same initialization code in *multiple* unit-tests.
*Note:* The *official* PDF.js API is defined in `src/pdf.js`, hence the new exports in `src/display/api.js` will not affect that.
Also, updates the unit-test `FileReaderFactory` helpers similarily.
*Drive-by change:* Fix the `CMapReaderFactory` usage in the annotation unit-tests, since the cache should only contain raw data and not a Promise. While this obviously works as-is, having unit-tests that "abuse" the intended data format can easily lead to unnecessary failures if changes are made to the relevant `src/core/` code.
Currently any errors thrown in `preEvaluateFont`, which is a *synchronous* method, will not be handled at all in the `loadFont` method and we were thus failing to return an `ErrorFont`-instance as intended here.
Also, add an *explicit* check in `PartialEvaluator.preEvaluateFont` to ensure that Type0-fonts always have a *valid* dictionary.
Similar to other markers that we currently skip, by ignoring unsupported Coding style default (COD) options we'll at least render *something* here (although some JPEG 2000 images may look slightly wrong).
Note that if the unsupported COD options lead to additional errors, during parsing, we'll still abort parsing of the JPEG 2000 image.
This will, in a very simple way using the existing events, thus allow the viewer to remove the "beforeunload" `window` event listener when the document is closed.
Generally speaking we want to avoid having *global* event listeners for the PDF document instance, which is why the `EventBus` exists, and instead reserve global events for the viewer itself. However, the `AnnotationStorage` "beforeunload" event unfortunately needs to be document-specific and we should thus ensure that it's correctly removed when the document is destroyed.
There's no really compelling reason, as far as I can tell, to introduce the `ENABLE_SCRIPTING` build-target, instead of simply re-using the existing `TESTING` build-target for the new `gulp integrationtest` task.
In general there should be no problem with just always enable scripting in TESTING-builds, and if I were to *guess* the reason that this didn't seem to work was most likely because the Preferences ended up over-writing the `AppOptions`.
As it turns out the GENERIC-viewer has already has built-in support for disabling of Preferences, via the `AppOptions`, and this can be utilized in TESTING-builds as well to ensure that whatever `AppOptions` are set they're always respected.
For DOM events all event names are lower-case, and the newly added PDF.js scripting-events thus "stick out" quite a bit. Even more so, considering that our internal `eventBus`-events follow the same naming convention.
Hence this patch, which changes the "updateFromSandbox"/"dispatchEventInSandbox" events to be lower-case instead.
Furthermore, using DOM events for communication *within* the PDF.js code itself (i.e. between code in `web/app.js` and `src/display/annotation_layer.js/`) feels *really* out of place.
That's exactly the reason that we have the `EventBus` abstraction, since it allowed us to remove prior use of DOM events, and this patch thus re-factors the code to make use of the `EventBus` instead for scripting-related events.
Obviously for events targeting a *specific element* using DOM events is still fine, but the "updatefromsandbox"/"dispatcheventinsandbox" ones should be using the `EventBus` internally.
*Drive-by change:* Use the `BaseViewer.currentScaleValue` setter unconditionally in `PDFViewerApplication._initializeJavaScript`, since it accepts either a string or a number.
- Update the `LinkAnnotationElement._bindJSAction` call-site to actually agree with the JSDocs, by passing in the `data`.
- Prevent the links created by `LinkAnnotationElement._bindJSAction` from being displayed with empty hashes; compare with e.g. `LinkAnnotationElement. _bindNamedAction`.
- The overall indentation-level in `WidgetAnnotationElement._setEventListener` can be reduced slightly by using early returns, which improves the overall readability of this method a bit. (We're also able to avoid unnecessary `in` usage here.)
- The code can also be made *slightly* more efficient overall, by moving the `this.data.actions` check into `WidgetAnnotationElement._setEventListeners` instead. This way we can avoid useless `this._setEventListener`-calls when there are no actions present.
- Actually remove the `isDown` property when destroying the scripting-instance.
- Mark all `mouseState` usage as "private" in the various classes.
- Ensure that the `AnnotationLayer` actually treats the parameter as properly *optional*, the same way that the viewer components do.
- For now remove the `mouseState` parameter from the `PDFPageView` class, and keep it only on the `BaseViewer`, since it's questionable if all of the scripting-functionality will work all that well without e.g. a full `BaseViewer`.
- Append the `mouseState` to the JSDoc for the `AnnotationElement` class, and just move its definition into the base-`AnnotationElement` class.
* the goal is to execute actions like Open or OpenAction
* can be tested with issue6106.pdf (auto-print)
* once #12701 is merged, we can add page actions
Similar to other markers that we currently skip, by ignoring the Coding style component (COC) marker we'll at least prevent outright errors (although some JPEG 2000 images may look slightly wrong).
* move set/clear|Timeout/Interval and crackURL code in pdf.js
* remove the "backdoor" in the proxy (used to dispatch event) and so return the dispatch function in the initializer
* remove listeners if an error occured during sandbox initialization
* add support for alert and prompt in the sandbox
* add a function to eval in the global scope
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.
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 simplifies not just this code, but the unit-tests as well, and should be sufficient as far as I can tell.
Note also that currently, in the *built* `pdf.sandbox.js` file, there's even a line reading `testMode = testMode && false;` because of an accidentally flipped pre-processor statement.
Finally, in the `scripting_spec.js` unit-test, defines `sandboxBundleSrc` at the top of the file to make it easier to find and/or change it when necessary.
Each quadrilateral needs to have its own link element, so the first
quadrilateral can use the already created element, but the next
quadrilaterals need to clone that element.
Not only does this reduce boilerplate since the documentation is the
same for all annotation classes, it also wasn't correct for the
annotation types that support quadpoints since they return an array of
section elements instead of a single one.
There's no good reason, as far as I can tell, to use search-and-replace to include the *stringified* `pdf.scripting.js` file in the built `pdf.sandbox.js` file. Instead we could, and even should, utilize the existing `PDFJSDev.eval(...)`-functionality, which is not only simpler but will also be more efficient as well (no need for a regular expression).
The current location feels somewhat strange, and also inconsistent with the existing way that bundling is done.
Finally, add the version/build numbers at the top of the *built* `pdf.sandbox.js` files, since all other built files include that information given that it's often helpful to be able to easily determine the *exact* version.
*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.
In addition to the existing /Root and /Pages validation, also check that the /Pages-entry actually is a dictionary and that it has a valid /Count-entry.
This way we can avoid picking a trailer candidate which e.g. the `Catalog.numPages` getter will just end up rejecting, thus breaking PDF document loading completely.
Given that we already include the "Content-Disposition"-header filename, when it exists, it shouldn't hurt to also include the information from the "Content-Length"-header.
For PDF documents opened via a URL, which should be a very common way for the PDF.js library to be used, this will[1] thus provide a way of getting the PDF filesize without having to wait for the `getDownloadInfo`-promise to resolve[2].
With these API improvements, we can also simplify the filesize handling in the `PDFDocumentProperties` class.

* quickjs-eval.js has been generated using https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js.quickjs/

- Add support for logical assignment operators, i.e. `&&=`, `||=`, and `??=`, with a Babel-plugin. Given that these required incrementing the ECMAScript version in the ESLint and Acorn configurations, and that platform/browser support is still fairly limited, always transpiling them seems appropriate for now.
- Cache the `hasJSActions` promise in the API, similar to the existing `getAnnotations` caching. With this implemented, the lookup should now be cheap enough that it can be called unconditionally in the viewer.
- Slightly improve cleanup of resources when destroying the `WorkerTransport`.
- Remove the `annotationStorage`-property from the `PDFPageView` constructor, since it's not necessary and also brings it more inline with the `BaseViewer`.
- Update the `BaseViewer.createAnnotationLayerBuilder` method to actaually agree with the `IPDFAnnotationLayerFactory` interface.[1]
- Slightly tweak a couple of JSDoc comments.
---
[1] We probably ought to re-factor both the `IPDFTextLayerFactory` and `IPDFAnnotationLayerFactory` interfaces to take parameter objects instead, since especially the `IPDFAnnotationLayerFactory` one is becoming quite unwieldy. Given that that would likely be a breaking change for any custom viewer-components implementation, this probably requires careful deprecation.
* remove 1st param of _createPopup (almost useless for a method)
* prepend popup div to avoid to have them on top of some highlights (and so "disable" partially mouse events)
* add a ref test for issue #12504
* in some pdf, there are actions with "event.source.hidden = ..."
* in order to handle visibility when printing, annotationStorage is extended to store multiple properties (value, hidden, editable, ...)
* When no actions then set it to null instead of empty object
* Even if a field has no actions, it needs to listen to events from the sandbox in order to be updated if an action changes something in it.
By using optional chaining, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining, it's possible to reduce unnecessary code-repetition in many cases.
Note that these changes also reduce the size of the *built* `pdf.js` file, when `SKIP_BABEL == true` is set, and for the `MOZCENTRAL` build-target that result in a `0.1%` filesize reduction from a simple and mostly mechanical code change.
Note that a number of these cases are covered by existing unit-tests, and a few others only matter for the development/build scripts.
Furthermore, I've also tried to the best of my ability to test each case *manually* to hopefully further reduce the likelihood of this patch introducing any bugs.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-useless-escape
The vast majority of the time, unless a Pattern is active, the `strokeColor`-property contains a "simple" colour value represented by a String. Hence it seems somewhat ridiculous to do a `hasOwnProperty` check on a String, and it's should thus be possible to improve things a tiny bit here.
Unfortunately using a simple `instanceof` check would only work for `TilingPattern`s, but not for the `ShadingIRs` given how they are implemented; see `src/display/pattern_helper.js`. (While that file could probably do with some clean-up, given the age of some of its code, that probably shouldn't happen here.)
Finally, the `this.type = "Pattern"`-property of the various Shadings/TilingPatterns were removed, since I cannot see why it's necessary when we can simply check for a `getPattern` method instead. Note that part of this code even pre-dates the main/worker-thread split, which probably in part explains why it looks the way it does.
The `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` method is necessary to determine if there's any blend modes on a page, which unfortunately requires *synchronous* parsing of the /Resources of each page before its rendering can start (see the "StartRenderPage"-message).
In practice it's not uncommon for certain /Resources-entries to be found on more than one page (referenced via the XRef-table), which thus leads to unnecessary re-fetching/re-parsing of data in `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes`.
To improve performance, especially in pathological cases, we can cache /Resources-entries when it's absolutely clear that they do not contain *any* blend modes at all[1]. This way, subsequent `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` calls can be made significantly more efficient.
This patch was tested using the PDF file from issue 6961, i.e. https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/files/121712/test.pdf:
```

which gave the following results when comparing this patch against the `master` branch:
```

[1] In the case where blend modes *are* found, it becomes a lot more difficult to know if it's generally safe to skip /Resources-entries. Hence we don't cache anything in that case, however note that most document/pages do not utilize blend modes anyway.
* it's faster to generate the color code in using a table for components
* it's very likely a way faster to parse (when setting the color in the canvas)
This fixes only those warnings, as reported by https://lgtm.com/projects/g/mozilla/pdf.js?mode=list, that make sense (as far as I'm concerned).
Hence this patch leaves the following things unaddressed:
- The "recommendation"-category, since it only complains about unused variables. However, note that all of those cases are purposely included and that there's thus ESLint-disable comments added to explictly allow them.
- The "warning"-category, which still contains two complaints. However, as far as I can tell, they are both false positives.
Given first of all the false positives of the LGTM static analyzer, and secondly that we'd need to add (essentially duplicated) disable-comments for the unused variable cases, it's not entirely clear to me if we actually want to work towards including LGTM in the PDF.js project (e.g. running alongside Travis) or if we should just close issue 11965.
Given that the `Map`-pattern apparently has undesirable performance characteristics, change this getter back to using an Object instead and check its size before returning it.
Rather than returning an *empty* Object[1] we should be returning `null` instead, since that's consistent with existing API-functionality.
To avoid having to *manually* track if the Object is empty, this patch also introduces a small helper function to check its size.
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 patch removes unnecessary escape-sequence in (mostly) strings, as a first step, since the ones in regular expressions probably requires more careful testing (just in case).
The only exception is a regular expression in `src/core/annotation.js`, since we should have both unit- and reference-tests for this code *and* given [this information on MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions/Character_Classes#Types):
> Inside a character set, the dot loses its special meaning and matches a literal dot.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-useless-escape
Given that `Object.fromEntries` doesn't seem to *guarantee* that a `null` prototype is used, we thus hack around that by using `Object.assign` with `Object.create(null)`.
This provides a work-around to avoid having to conditionally try to initialize the `openAction`-object in multiple places.
Given that `Object.fromEntries` doesn't seem to *guarantee* that a `null` prototype is used, we thus hack around that by using `Object.assign` with `Object.create(null)`.
Different fonts incorrectly end up with *identical* hashes, despite having different /ToUnicode data.
The issue, and it's very interesting that we've apparently not seen it before, appears to be caused by the fact that different /ToUnicode entries share the *same* underlying `ArrayBuffer`, which thus becomes problematic at the `const dataUint32 = new Uint32Array(data.buffer, 0, blockCounts);` line. The simplest solution thus seem to be to just *copy* the input, when it's an `ArrayBuffer`, rather than using it as-is. (Note that if we'd stringified the input, when calling `MurmurHash3_64.update`, the issue would also have been fixed. In this case, we're already creating an unique TypedArray.)
Given that this code is used on the worker-thread, where SystemJS is still used during development, we need to (for now) handle this folder the same way as the `src/core/` one.
Since we no longer use SystemJS to load the unit-tests, there's now nothing that prevents us from using optional chaining and nullish coalescing in the `src/display/` directory.
*Please note:* Once https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687 is implemented, and we've removed SystemJS completely, this entire patch can (and even should) be reverted.
This is similar to the existing `getLookupTableFactory` helper function, but is implemented as outlined in issue 6774.
The re-formatting of the tables were done automatically, by using find-and-replace with regular expressions.
For reasons that I don't even pretend to understand, using this particular structure for these *very* long lookup tables allow SystemJS to process the files correctly/quickly and the development viewer thus works as intended.
While the *built* `pdf.worker.js` file still works correctly with these changes, despite these two files being excluded by Babel[1], the development viewer does not because of issues with SystemJS[2] and/or its Babel-plugin (both of which are old).
Furthermore, note also that excluding these two files from Babel-processing isn't *generally* necessary since e.g. the `gulp mozcentral` command works anyway. The explanation is rather that it's actually the source-map generation which fails for these huge sequences when building the `pdf.worker.js` file.
However, not using standard `import`/`export` statements in all files means we also need to use SystemJS when e.e. running the unit-tests. This is very unfortunate, since SystemJS (or its old Babel-version) doesn't support modern ECMAScript features such as e.g. optional chaining and nullish coalescing.
Unfortunately it also seems that https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687, which tracks the implementation of worker-modules in Firefox, has stalled since there hasn't been any updates for six months now.
To hopefully address all of the above, this patch is the first in a series that attempts to further reduce our reliance on SystemJS.

[1] The only difference being how the dependencies are handled, in the Webpack-bundled file.
[2] Parsing takes way too long and consumes too much memory, thus rendering the development viewer essentially unusable.
This brings the new `pdf.scripting.js` bundling more in-line with the pre-existing handling for the `pdf.js`/`pdf.worker.js` files:
- Add a new `src/pdf.scripting.js` file as the entry-point for the build scripts.
- Add the version/build numbers at the top of the *built* `pdf.scripting.js` files, since all other built files include that information given that it's often helpful to be able to easily determine the *exact* version.
- Tweak the `createScriptingBundle` in the gulp-file, since it looks like a little bit too much copy-and-paste in the variable names.
