PR 6141 changed `CompiledFont.compileGlyph` to, in the general case, return an Array. However, that PR apparenly forgot to update the no-glyph, empty-glyph, and endchar-glyph code-path and a String was still being (incorrectly) returned.
Given the way that `FontFaceObject.getPathGenerator` (on the API side) is implemented, this shouldn't have caused any bugs despite the Worker possible returning unexpected data.
It gives warnings when running `gulp locale`, in a previous patch it was
explicitly asked to remove it and there is quite a bit of discussion
about the validity of the locale at
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418485. In short, let's
remove it to prevent these issues.
Given that the non-default Spread modes (currently) doesn't affect the page layout when horizontal scrolling is enabled, having the Spread buttons appear active when clicking them appears to do *nothing* is probably confusing rather than helpful to users.
If the current viewer is a `PDFSinglePageViewer` instance the Scroll/Spread modes are no-ops, hence displaying buttons that do *nothing* when clicked will probably do very little besides confuse users.
The names 'resetscrollmode'/'resetspreadmode' were probably *not* great choices, given that the only thing being reset are toolbar buttons and not the actual Scroll/Spread modes. Furthermore, there's really no need for two separate events here.
The patch also adds a comment that ought to have been included in PR 9040, to prevent future refactoring/removing of what may appear to be an unnecessary `Promise.resolve` call.
This moves/exposes the `URL` polyfill similarily to the existing `ReadableStream` polyfill, rather than exposing it globally, to avoid interfering with any "outside" code.
Both the `URL` and `ReadableStream` polyfills are now exposed on the `pdfjsLib` object, such that they are accessible to the viewer components.
Furthermore, the `no-restricted-globals` ESLint rule is also enabled to prevent accidental usage of the native `URL`/`ReadableStream` implementations directly in the `src/` and `web/` folders; see also https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-restricted-globals
Addresses the remaining TODO in https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/projects/6
Rather than having to manually call a method on `PDFFindController` instances from `BaseViewer.setDocument`, thus essentially having to resolve the private `_firstPagePromise` from the "outside", this can be done easily with the 'pagesinit' event dispatched on the `eventBus` instead.
Please note this particular `PDFFindController` code pre-dates the `eventBus` by almost three years, which should explain why the code looks the way it does.
Since the Scroll/Spread modes are now document specific, as all other properties such as page/scale/rotation, ensure that the toolbar is always correctly reset.
Since other viewer state, such as the current page/scale/rotation[1], are not available as `BaseViewer` constructor options, this makes the Scroll/Spread modes stand out quite a bit. Hence it probably makes sense to remove/deprecate this, to avoid inconsistent and possibly confusing state in this code.

[1] These properties are *purposely* not available in the constructor, since attempting to set them before a document is loaded has number of issues; please refer to https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/8539#issuecomment-309706629 for additional details.
Since all the other viewer methods use the getter/setter pattern, e.g. for setting page/scale/rotation, the way that the Scroll/Spread modes are set thus stands out. For consistency, this really ought to use the same pattern as the rest of the `BaseViewer`. (To avoid breaking third-party implementations, the old methods are kept around as aliases.)
Note how the other "...OnLoad" preferences will allow a *non-default* value to always override a history entry. To improve overall consistency for the viewer options, and to reduce possibly confusing behaviour, this patch changes the `scrollModeOnLoad`/`spreadModeOnLoad` preferences to behave as all the other ones.
For some reason, these weren't added to `AppOptions` despite actually being set and read from `web/app.js`. Not adding them creates inconsistencies, since all other options *are* present in `web/app_options.js`.
This property isn't accessed anywhere in the `web/app.js` file, and is also not being reset in `PDFViewerApplication.close`. Hence it seems that it can simply be removed, especially since the fingerprint is already synchronously available through `PDFViewerApplication.pdfDocument.fingerprint` (provided that a document is loaded).
Currently if `RenderTask.cancel` is called *immediately* after rendering was started, then by the time that `InternalRenderTask.initializeGraphics` is called rendering will already have been cancelled.
However, we're still inserting the canvas into the `canvasInRendering` map, thus breaking any future attempts at re-rendering using the same canvas. Considering that `InternalRenderTask.cancel` always removes the canvas from the map, I cannot imagine that we'd ever want to re-add it *after* rendering was cancelled (it was likely just a simple oversight in PR 8519).
Fixes 9456.
With the current code, the location in the viewer could change *well* after the user has started to interact with the viewer (for very large and/or slow loading documents). Attempt to reduce the likelyhood of that happening, by adding an upper bound to the time spent waiting before attempting to re-apply the initial position.
Rather than using a "special" property to check if a `ViewHistory` database entry existed on load, it seems that you could just as well check for the existence of one of the actually needed properties instead (here 'page' is used).
This way we can avoid storing what, more of less, amounts to useless state, which will help reduce the size of the `ViewHistory` database. Given that we don't directly, nor need to, validate the `ViewHistory` data but rely on other parts of the code-base to do so, the existance of an 'exists' property doesn't in and of itself really add much utility.
Finally, to simplify the implementation the 'exists' property won't be actively removed from the `ViewHistory` data. Instead we'll simply stop adding 'exists' when writing `ViewHistory` data, and rely on the existing pruning of old entries to eventually remove any remnants of 'exists' from storage.
Note how, in the current code, only *one* old history entry would ever be removed. That would mean that if e.g. the `cacheSize` is reduced, it would potentially require loading of multiple files before the database would be correctly pruned.
Furthermore, in the case where the database was empty on load there's no need to attempt to shrink it, since trying to reduce the size of an *empty* array won't do much :-)
This wasn't included in PR 9245, since all the API options were still global at that time.
Writing the unit-tests also uncovered an issue with `getOperatorList` not starting the "Page Request" timer.
Incomplete path operators, in particular, can result in fairly chaotic rendering artifacts, as can be observed on page four of the referenced PDF file.
The initial (naive) solution that was attempted, was to simply throw a `FormatError` as soon as any invalid (i.e. too short) operator was found and rely on the existing `ignoreErrors` code-paths. However, doing so would have caused regressions in some files; see the existing `issue2391-1` test-case, which was promoted to an `eq` test to help prevent future bugs.
Hence this patch, which adds special handling for invalid path operators since those may cause quite bad rendering artifacts.
You could, in all fairness, argue that the patch is a handwavy solution and I wouldn't object. However, given that this only concerns *corrupt* PDF files, the way that PDF viewers (PDF.js included) try to gracefully deal with those could probably be described as a best-effort solution anyway.
This patch also adjusts the existing `warn`/`info` messages to print the command name according to the PDF specification, rather than an internal PDF.js enumeration value. The former should be much more useful for debugging purposes.
