Since the `close` method has become quite large, this small re-factoring shouldn't hurt (and may also be useful with future changes to the `_initializeJavaScript` method).
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 patch *attempts* to actually implement what's described for the `Count`-entry in the PDF specification, see https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G11.2095911, which I mostly ignored back in PR 10890 since it seemed unnecessarily complicated[1].
Besides issue 12704, I've also tested a couple of other documents (e.g. the PDF specification) and these changes don't *seem* to break anything else; additional testing would be helpful though!
---
[1] At the time, all PDF documents that I tested worked even with a very simple approach and I thus hoped that it'd would suffice.
Similar to the previous patch, the GENERIC default viewer is capable of opening more than *one* PDF document and we should ensure that we handle that case correctly.
I was actually quite surprised to find that, despite the various `scripting`-getters implementing `destroySandbox` methods, there were no attempts at actually cleaning-up either the "sandbox" or removing the globally registered event listeners.
This patch also changes the method to skip *all* data fetching when "enableScripting" isn't active. Finally, simplifies some event-data accesses in the "updateFromSandbox" listener.
Another possible option here could be to use the `contentLength`, when it exists, and then using e.g. a custom event to always update the "filesize" in the sandbox "after the fact" with the result of the `getDownloadInfo`-call.
We can easily avoid unnecessary API-calls here, since most of the time the `metadata` will already be available here. In the *rare* case that it's not available, we can simply wait for the existing `getMetadata`-call to resolve.
This will be useful in the following patch, and note that there's also an old issue (see 5765) which asked for such an event. However, given that the use-case wasn't *clearly* specified, and that we didn't have an internal use for it at the time it wasn't implemented.
Also, ensure that all of the metadata-related properties are actually reset when the document is closed.
Compared to the, previously removed, `sandbox`/`watch-sandbox` gulp-tasks, these ones should work even when run against an non-existent/empty `build`-folder.
Also, to ensure that the development viewer actually works out-of-the-box, `gulp server` will now also include `gulp watch-dev-sandbox` to remove the need to *manually* invoke the build-tasks.
Finally, this patch also removes the `web/devcom.js` file since it shouldn't actually be needed, assuming that the "sandbox"-loading code in the `web/genericcom.js` file is actually *correctly* implemented.
Rather than having two slightly different ways of setting the pending/notFound appearance on the "findInput", we can simply use "data-status" in both cases since they're obviously mutually exclusive.
As mentioned in https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#faq-support, PDF.js version `2.6.347` is the last release with IE 11/Edge support.
Hence we should now be able to reduce unnecessary duplication in the default viewer image resources, note the files in the `web/images/` folder with a `-dark` suffix, by using only *one* SVG-image for each icon and letting the `background-color` depend on the CSS theme instead.
For the `gulp mozcentral` build-target, the resulting `web/images/` folder is reduced from `43 997` to `28 566` bytes (~35 percent).
*Please note:* I don't really know if this implementation is necessarily the *best* solution, but it seems to work well enough in e.g. Firefox Nightly and Google Chrome Beta as far as my testing goes.
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.
---
[1] Assuming that the server is correctly configured, of course.
[2] Since that's not *guaranteed* to happen in general, with e.g. `disableAutoFetch = true` set.
* quickjs-eval.js has been generated using https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js.quickjs/
* lazy load of sandbox code
* Rewrite tests to use the sandbox
* Add a task `watch-sandbox` which update bundle pdf.sandbox.js on change in the sandbox code
Given that it's generally faster to call *one* function and have it loop through an object, rather than looping through an object and calling a function for every iteration, this patch will reduce the total time spent in `PDFViewerApplication._readPreferences` ever so slightly.
Also, over time we've been adding more and more preferences, rather than removing them, so using the new `AppOptions.setAll` method should be generally beneficial as well.
While the effect of these changes is quite small, it does reduces the time it takes for the preferences to be fully initialized. Given the amount of asynchronous code during viewer initialization, every bit of time that we can save should thus help.
Especially considering the recently added `viewerCssTheme` preference, which needs to be read very early to reduce the risk of the viewer UI "flashing" visibly as the theme changes, I figured that a couple of small patches reducing the time spend reading preferences cannot hurt.
Given that only two debugging hash parameters (i.e. `disableWorker` and `pdfBug`) will make this method asynchronous, we can avoid what's most of the time is an unnecessary `Promise.all` invocation.
While this does work pretty well in my quick testing, it's *very much* a hack since as far as I can tell there's no support in the CSS specification for using e.g. a CSS variable to override a `@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {...}` block.
The solution implemented here is thus to *edit* the viewer CSS, by either removing the entire `@media ...` block in light-mode or by ensuring that its rules become *unconditionally* applied in dark-mode.
To simplify the overall implementation, since all of this does seem like somewhat of an edge-case, the `viewerCssTheme` preference will *only* be read during viewer initialization. (Similar to many other existing preferences, a reload is thus required when changing it.)
Originally the default preferences were defined in a JSON-file checked into the repository, which was loaded using SystemJS in development mode.
Over the years a number of changes have been made to this code, most notably:
- The preferences JSON-file is now generated automatically, during building, from the `AppOptions` abstraction.
- All SystemJS usage has been removed from the development viewer.
Hence the default preferences are now available *synchronously* even in the development viewer, and it's thus no longer necessary to defer to the microtask queue (since `getDefaultPreferences` is async) just to get the default preferences.
While the effect of these changes is quite small, it *does* reduces the time it takes for the preferences to be fully initialized. Given the amount of asynchronous code during viewer initialization, every bit of time that we can save should thus help.
- 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.
*Note that I wasn't able to reproduce the issue in Firefox, but only in Chromium-browsers.*
The bug, and it's feels almost trivial once you've found it, is that we're not passing the `transform` parameter as intended to `PDFPageProxy.render` when drawing thumbnails on HiDPI displays. Instead the canvas context is, for reasons that I don't even pretent to understand, *manually* scaled in `PDFThumbnailView._getPageDrawContext`, which thus doesn't guarantee that the `baseTransform` property on the `CanvasGraphics`-instances becomes correct.
The solution is really simple though, just handle the `transform` the same way in `PDFThumbnailView.draw` as in `PDFPageView.paintOnCanvas` and things should just work.
*This is a pre-existing issue that I noticed while working on PR 12613, and fixing this also brings the thumbnail code inline with the page code.*
Given the intermittent nature of all of this, it's somewhat difficult to reproduce it consistently; however the following steps should at least provide an outline:
1. Open the sidebar, and the thumbnailView, and start scrolling around.
2. *Quickly* close the sidebar, so that all thumbnails won't have time to finish rendering.
3. Either wait for the cleanup-timeout to occur, or simply run `PDFViewerApplication.cleanup()` in the console.
What *intermittently* happens here is that `WorkerTransport.startCleanup` rejects, and consequently that cleanup doesn't complete as intended, since some of the thumbnails are left in a *pending* renderingState[1].
Fixing this is simple though, and only requires updating `PDFThumbnailViewer.cleanup` along the lines of `BaseViewer.cleanup`.
---
[1] Keep in mind that thumbnails will *only* render when the thumbnailView is visible, to reduce resource usage.
This patch will help reduce memory usage, especially for longer documents, when the user scrolls around in the thumbnailView (in the sidebar).
Note how the `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` method will, assuming it's safe to do so, release main-thread resources associated with the page. These include things such as e.g. image data (which can be arbitrarily large), and also the operatorList (which can also be quite large).
Hence when pages are evicted from the `PDFPageViewBuffer`, on the `BaseViewer`-instance, the `PDFPageView.destroy` method is invoked which will (among other things) call `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` in the API.
However, looking at the `PDFThumbnailViewer`/`PDFThumbnailView` classes you'll notice that there's no attempt to ever call `PDFPageProxy.cleanup`, which implies that in certain circumstances we'll essentially keep all resources allocated permanently on the `PDFPageProxy`-instances in the API.
In particular, this happens when the users opens the sidebar and starts scrolling around in the thumbnails. Generally speaking you obviously need to keep all thumbnail *images* around, since otherwise the thumbnailView is useless, but there's still room for improvement here.
Please note that the case where a *rendered page* is used to create the thumbnail is (obviously) completely unaffected by the issues described above, and this rather only applies to thumbnails being explicitly rendered by the `PDFThumbnailView.draw` method.
For the latter case, we can fix these issues simply by calling `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` once rendering has finished. To prevent *accidentally* pulling the rug out from under `PDFPageViewBuffer` in the viewer, which expects data to be available, this required adding a couple of new methods[1] to enable checking that it's indeed safe to call `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` from the `PDFThumbnailView.draw` method.
It's really quite fascinating that no one has noticed this issue before, since it's been around since basically "forever".
---
[1] While it should be *very* rare for `PDFThumbnailView.draw` to be called for a pageView that's also in the `PDFPageViewBuffer`, given that pages are rendered before thumbnails and that the *rendered page* is used to create the thumbnail, it can still happen since rendering is asynchronous.
Furthermore, it's also possible for `PDFThumbnailView.setImage` to be disabled, in which case checking the `PDFPageViewBuffer` for active pageViews *really* matters.
* 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.
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
Given the number of parameters, and the fact that many of them are booleans, the call-sites are no longer particularly easy to read and understand. Furthermore, this slightly improves the formatting of the JSDoc-comment, since it needed updating as part of these changes anyway.
Finally, this removes an unnecessary `numViews === 0` check from `getVisibleElements`, since that should be *very* rare and more importantly that the `binarySearchFirstItem` function already has a fast-path for that particular case.
This patch addresses a review comment, which pointed out that we should *also* handle the pageNumber-input, from PR 12493.
Given that a user *manually* changing pages using the pageNumber-input, on the toolbar, could be regarded as a pretty strong indication of user-intent w.r.t. navigation in the document, hence I suppose that updating the browser history in this case as well probably won't hurt.
All of these methods will, in one way or another, cause e.g. scrolling or zooming to occur and consequently they don't really make sense unless there's an active PDF document. Especially since all of these methods end up calling into a `BaseViewer`-instance, which already contains similar early returns in essentially all of it's methods and setters.
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 we're now accessing certain API-functionality *directly* in this file, e.g. the AnnotationStorage and Optional Content configuration, ensuring that there's not a version mismatch definitely seem like a good idea to prevent any *subtle* future bugs.
Ensure that these tooltip-only Annotations are handled as "internalLink"s, to ensure that they behave as expected in PresentationMode (e.g. they should still use a `pointer`-cursor).
Ensure that `PDFLinkService.getDestinationHash` won't create links with empty hashes, since those don't really make a lot of sense in general (this improves things for tooltip-only Annotations).
This PDF file can be used for testing: http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment/doc/pdfcomment.pdf#page=14
- Return early in `PDFViewerApplication._initializeJavaScript` for PDF documents without any `fieldObjects`, which is the vast majority of all documents, to prevent errors when trying to parse a non-existent object.
- Similar to the other `PDFViewerApplication._initialize*` methods, ignore the `fieldObjects` if the document was closed before the data resolved.
- Fix the JSDoc comment for the `generateRandomStringForSandbox` helper function, since there's currently a bit too much copy-and-paste going on :-)
- Change `FirefoxScripting` to a class with static methods, which is consistent with the surrounding code in `web/firefoxcom.js`.
There's no compelling reason to update this property *manually* in multiple places, since that's error-prone with any future code changes, given that `_updateInternalState` is always called just before anyway.
While the referenced issue could very well be seen as an edge-case, this patch adds support for updating of the browser history when interacting with the thumbnails in the sidebar (assuming we want to do this).
The main reason for adding the history implementation in the first place, was to simplify navigating back to a previous position in the document when named/explicit destinations are used (e.g. when clicking on "links" or when using the outline in the sidebar).
As such, it never really crossed by mind to update the browser history when the thumbnails are used. However, a user clicking on thumbnails could be regarded as a pretty strong indication of user-intent w.r.t. navigation in the document, hence I suppose that updating the browser history in this particular case probably won't hurt.
This modernizes and improves the code, by using `async`/`await` and by extracting the helper function to its own method.
To hopefully avoid confusion, given the next patch, the method is also re-named to `goToDestination` to make is slightly clearer what it actually does.
Given that we're no longer using SystemJS to load the `web/` files, see PR 11919, there's nothing that prevents us from using standard `ìmport` statements in this file.
Obviously it's still necessary to load part of the code conditionally on the build type, however this still allows us to clean-up and simplify at least some of this file.
The `debugger`-statement would only, potentially, make sense during development and we thus want to prevent it from being accidentally included when landing code.
The `alert`, `confirm`, and `prompt` functions should generally be avoided, with the few intended cases manually allowed.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rules at:
- https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-debugger
- https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-alert
In the rest of the viewer code-base, we purposely don't treat `RenderingCancelledException`s as actual errors (since they aren't) and consequently we never log them.
Hence it makes sense, as far as I'm concerned, to simply treat `RenderingCancelledException`s the same way when printing in Firefox.
While I don't print a whole lot, I cannot remember seeing these "errors" logged when printing until *very* recently[1]. Given that the browser print functionality and UI, in Firefox, is under active development it's certainly possible that there's some recent changes to the related timings which make `RenderingCancelledException`s more likely now.
---
[1] Interestingly, only some PDF documents seem to be affected as well; I'm able to reproduce this pretty consistently by opening https://www.uni-muenster.de/imperia/md/content/ziv/pdf/printpay_flyer.pdf in Firefox and then repeating the following sequence:
Clicking on the PDF.js print button, and then cancelling printing.
This should be helpful to easily determine the *exact* version of the viewer itself, when looking at a *built* `web/viewer.js` file.
Note that we're already including this information in other built files, such as e.g. `pdf.js`, `pdf.worker.js`, `pdf_viewer.js`, and `pdf.image_decoders.js`.
This adds a new `PDFViewerApplication.triggerPrinting` method, which takes care of checking that printing is actually supported before calling `window.print`, to remove the need to duplicate that code in multiple places.
Also, removes the `PDFViewerApplication.printing` getter since it's not really necessary any more.
For now we need to use a Babel-plugin, since part of our build system doesn't support this fully (e.g. Babel-loader, Webpack 4.x, and SystemJS).
While the `?.` operator will thus always be transpiled by Babel, even in modern builds, simply supporting it for development purposes seems like a step in the right direction.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining
Given how those are used, there *should* not be any situation in which e.g. `undefined` is ever returned. However, actually checking that the pageView/thumbnail is defined cannot hurt.
Also, re-factor `webViewerPageRendered` slightly since the `pageView` is no longer unconditionally necessary after the previous patches; note in particular that the thumbnails will only be updated when the sidebar *and* the thumbnailView is visible.
Finally, fixes a bug in `webViewerPageChanging` whereby an empty string would not be treated as a valid pageLabel and instead be replaced by `null`.
Given that the default viewer only uses the "page stats" when debugging is enabled, it seems much simpler and more straightforward to simply query the API *directly* when this information is actually required. That way, there's a bit less information that needs to be stored/updated on each `PDFPageView`-instance.
Finally, since the `EventBus` now exists, we no longer need to handle the "page stats"-case in the regular listeners in `web/app.js`, but can instead add special "page stats"-listeners only when debugging is enabled.
The way that rendering errors are handled in `PDFPageView` is *very* old, and predates e.g. the introduction of the `EventBus` by several years.
Hence we should be able to simplify things a bit here, by including the Error (when it exists) in the "pagerendered" event and thus avoid having to reach into `PDFPageView` for it.
Note that a `RenderingCancelledException` *should* never actually reach this method, but better safe than sorry I suppose, considering that both `PDFPageView` and `PDFThumbnailView` are already catching `RenderingCancelledException`s since those are *not* Errors in the normal sense of the word.
For years the loadingBar and sidebarContainer has had a slightly annoying and unfortunate dependency, since the loadingBar width follows the main toolbar width[1].
To prevent the loadingBar from obscuring part of the sidebarContainer, especially the buttons, the sidebarContainer is thus moved down when the loadingBar is visible. This has always annoyed me[2], since it means that the buttons in the sidebar may thus move vertically which seems bad from a UX perspective.
Now that CSS variables are available in all supported browsers[3] however, fixing the loadingBar/sidebarContainer overlap issues are finally easy. The solution is simply to let the sidebarContainer, when visible, control the loadingBar left position (right in RTL locales) in the same way that the viewerContainer is handled. Hence the sidebarContainer can now have a *consistent* vertical postition, without the loadingBar overlapping it.
---
[1] Obviously the right position (left in RTL locales) of the loadingBar is, potentially, reduced to account for a scrollbar.
[2] I've tried to fix this a few times, but it always seemed like more trouble than it's worth.
[3] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Using_CSS_custom_properties#Browser_compatibility
The `getVisibleElements` helper function currently requires the viewerContainer to be absolutely positioned; possibly fixing this is tracked in issue 11626.
Without `position: absolute;` set, in the CSS, there's a number of things that won't work correctly such as e.g.
- Determining which pages are currently visible, thus forcing all of them to render on load and increasing resource usage significantly; note https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#allthepages
- Scrolling pages into view, by using the `BaseViewer.currentPageNumber` setter or similar.
Based on the number of opened issues over the years, the fact that `position: absolute;` is required has shown to be something that users can very easily overlook unless they follow e.g. the `simpleviewer` example to the letter.
Hence, to improve things until such a time that issue 11626 is fixed, we'll now refuse to initialize a `BaseViewer` instance unless the `container` has the required CSS set. (Forcibly setting `position: absolute;` on the viewerContainer element is bound to cause significantly more issues/confusion, hence the current approach of throwing an Error.)
This reverts commit 9e4552d792 for causing the sidebar to become too narrow when the entire viewer is resized.
**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Load the viewer.
2. Open the sidebar.
3. Resize the sidebar, making it wider.
4. Resize the entire viewer, i.e. the browser window, making it *narrower* than 400 pixels.
**Expected result:**
The sidebar width is clamped at 200 pixels.
**Actual result:**
The sidebar becomes too narrow.
The cause of this bug is, in hindsight, quite obvious since the `clamp` helper function implicitly assumes that the `min`/`max` arguments are correctly sorted. At viewer widths *below* 400 pixels, that assumption is broken which explains the bug.
Given that the outlineView/attachmentsView/layersView all share a common base-class and CSS rules, see PRs 12169 and 12170, the names of the CSS variables in question feels slightly strange now.
This patch purposely starts small, by removing IE-specific code from various JS/CSS files in the `web/` folder.
There's obviously lots of potential for additional clean-up, especially the removal of no longer necessary polyfills in `src/shared/compatibility.js`, however that will require some care considering that certain polyfills may also be necessary for e.g. Node.js or the Chromium-extension as well.
Generally speaking, once we start removing polyfills it's probably a good idea to consult the compatibility information on https://developer.mozilla.org/ and also https://caniuse.com/ first. (Deciding on the lowest supported Chromium version, for the extension, would also seem like a good idea.)
This reverts commit 2a0de0b66b.
I can no longer reproduce these issues locally, and if ad blockers are still interfering with this functionality we really ought to pursue a mozilla-central solution to the problem instead. (Also, I'm no longer getting an "Open with Firefox"-option in the "Open with"-dialog making the PDF attachments experience worse for all users.)
This should help prevent future issues, caused by the user omitting the `viewer` option and/or providing an incorrect `container` option, when initializing a `BaseViewer`-instance.
This fixes a set of issues described in Mozilla bug 1662426[1].
In particular, once the print callback fails once (because the printing
operation has been canceled in Gecko / replaced by a newer one, for example) it
can't be re-invoked.
This patch fixes it by properly cancelling the render task if it throws, or if
the print callback is called again while ongoing.
[1]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1662426
All of the core/display functionality needed to support this already exists, we simply need to handle these named actions in the viewer and the buttons will "just" work.
Unfortunately there's not really any good way of testing this, but given the size and scope of the patch that's hopefully OK.
This is *similar* to the existing linting for JavaScript files, but covers CSS files instead.
While there's a lot of rules that could potentially be used, the main advantage of using Stylelint is that it has Prettier integration which means that we can automatically enforce a *consistent* style for our CSS files as well.
As a proof of concept, this patch is purposely limited to:
- Adding a simple rule, here `block-no-empty` is chosen; see https://stylelint.io/user-guide/rules/block-no-empty
- Adding Prettier integration, to unify the style of our CSS files.
Please find additional information at https://stylelint.io/
*Besides, obviously, adding viewer support:* This patch attempts to improve the general API for Optional Content Groups slightly, by adding a couple of new methods for interacting with the (more complex) data structures of `OptionalContentConfig`-instances. (Thus allowing us to mark some of the data as "private", given that it probably shouldn't be manipulated directly.)
By utilizing not just the "raw" Optional Content Groups, but the data from the `/Order` array when available, we can thus display the Layers in a proper tree-structure with collapsible headings for PDF documents that utilizes that feature.
Note that it's possible to reset all Optional Content Groups to their default visibility state, simply by double-clicking on the Layers-button in the sidebar.
(Currently that's indicated in the Layers-button tooltip, which is obviously easy to overlook, however it's probably the best we can do for now without adding more buttons, or even a dropdown-toolbar, to the sidebar.)
Also, the current Layers-button icons are a little rough around the edges, quite literally, but given that the viewer will soon have its UI modernized anyway they hopefully suffice in the meantime.
To give users *full* control of the visibility of the various Optional Content Groups, even those which according to the `/Order` array should not (by default) be toggleable in the UI, this patch will place those under a *custom* heading which:
- Is collapsed by default, and placed at the bottom of the Layers-tree, to be a bit less obtrusive.
- Uses a slightly different formatting, compared to the "regular" headings.
- Is localizable.
Finally, note that the thumbnails are *purposely* always rendered with all Optional Content Groups at their default visibility state, since that seems the most useful and it's also consistent with other viewers.
To ensure that this works as intended, we'll thus disable the `PDFThumbnailView.setImage` functionality when the Optional Content Groups have been changed in the viewer. (This obviously means that we'll re-render thumbnails instead of using the rendered pages. However, this situation ought to be rare enough for this to not really be a problem.)
This patch:
- Removes the :hover effect from the `findMsg` element, since it's a simple span and clicking it *obviously* does nothing.
- Given the way that the checkboxes are visually hidden, with `opacity: 0;` and absolute positioning, they are unfortunately still focusable (fixed by adding `pointer-events: none;`). To reproduce this, in `master`: Place the mouse pointer over the upper left-hand corner of the "Highlight all"-option, and notice that the :hover effect vanishes and clicking toggles the "Match case"-option instead.
This special progressBar is only used in the (fortunately) rare case when a server doesn't provide a valid `Content-Length` header. Since this progressBar isn't normally seen, when testing the default viewer, it's certainly very easy to see why these CSS rules were missed during review.
Furthermore, this patch also makes a couple of *small* progressBar CSS tweaks not related to the colours.
With the changes in PR 11077, these panels are no longer aligned exactly with the *center* of the corresponding toolbar buttons. This is especially noticeable for the `findbar` at narrow viewer width.
Unfortunately the work-around implemented in PR 12286 didn't actually work in all cases, please refer to the previous commit messages.
To prevent opening of PDF attachments from being completely broken for some users, we'll simply force-download them for now in MOZCENTRAL-builds to unbreak things. (Given that the "Open with" dialog now features a "Open with Firefox"-option, this is less bad than it previously would've been.)
This should provide better filetype detection when downloading PDF attachments in the viewer.
Also, to avoid creating the "is PDF file" regular expression more than once it's extracted into a global constant instead.
This reverts commit 1e5d4b6a80, since it unfortunately doesn't work in all situations.
Please note that I did *successfully* test the patch in a local Firefox build, obviously with an ad blocker installed.
However, I've now tested the *latest* Nightly-build with my default profile, and unfortunately I can still reproduce the bug there!?
Unfortunately e.g. ad blockers can interfere with `window.open` calls, thus preventing PDF attachments from being opened/viewed. For the MOZCENTRAL-build, we can work-around this problem by using a (hidden) link instead.
Without these changes, clicking on the "Open With Different Viewer"-button on the Firefox fallback bar won't actually do anything and the following is printed in the web-console:
```
Uncaught TypeError: (destructured parameter) is undefined
download resource://pdf.js/web/viewer.js:956
response resource://pdf.js/web/viewer.js:1054
listener resource://pdf.js/web/viewer.js:11891
viewer.js:956:1

Furthermore, this patch also fixes `PDFViewerApplication.fallback` to pass in an explicit `sourceEventType` when triggering downloading. While this, on its own, would obviously have been sufficient to fix the bug described above, it seems wrong to outright break backwards compatibility of any older `PDFViewerApplication.download` calls.
Good form type detection is important to get reliable telemetry and to
only show the fallback bar if a form cannot be filled out by the user.
PDF.js only supports AcroForm data, so XFA data is explicitly unsupported
(tracked in issue #2373). However, the previous form type detection
couldn't separate AcroForm and XFA well enough, causing form type
telemetry to be incorrect sometimes and the fallback bar to be shown for
forms that could in fact be filled out by the user.
The solution in this commit is found by studying the specification and
the form documents that are available to us. In a nutshell the rules are:
- There is XFA data if the `XFA` entry is a non-empty array or stream.
- There is AcroForm data if the `Fields` entry is a non-empty array and
it doesn't consist of only document signatures.
The document signatures part was not handled in the old code, causing a
document with only XFA data to also be marked as having AcroForm data.
Moreover, the old code didn't check all the data types.
Now that AcroForm and XFA can be distinguished, the viewer is configured
to only show the fallback bar for documents that only have XFA data. If
a document also has AcroForm data, the viewer can use that to render the
form. We have not found documents where the XFA data was necessary in
that case.
Finally, we include unit tests to ensure that all cases are covered and
move the form type detection out of the `parse` function so that it's
only executed if the document information is actually requested
(potentially making initial parsing a tiny bit faster).
Currently there's enough leading padding that the `numPages` span feels somewhat "disconnected" from the `pageNumber` input, which seems unfortunate when they contain related state.
This solution is obviously *not* perfect, since printing being cancelled will thus remove the warning as well. However, a similar problem already exists for saving, since the user may cancel that one as well.
All-in-all, since way cannot really detect with absolute certainty that either saving or printing actually finished, this seems good enough for now.
Given that `renderInteractiveForms` is now enabled by default in "full" viewer, it seems reasonable to enable it by default in the viewer components as well.
Especially considering that it's simple to disable, when creating the affected components, for anyone implementing their own viewer.

This allows Firefox trigger a "save" event from ctrl/cmd+s or the "Save
Page As" context menu, which in turn lets pdf.js generate a new PDF if
there is form data to save.
I also now use `sourceEventType` on downloads so Firefox can determine if
it should launch the "open with" dialog or "save as" dialog.
With the changes in PR 11077, the zoom dropdown now looks "squashed" in locales with longer than average zoom-strings[1]. The reason is that the zoom-value and the dropdown-icon are too close together, which doesn't look good in affected locales.
To fix this, the following changes are made:
- Increase the calculated dropdown width, in `Toolbar._adjustScaleWidth`, to account for the much wider icon (7 px -> 16 px) and the increased padding.
- Move the dropdown-icon *slightly* outwards, and also *slightly* reduce the left (right in RTL locales) padding of the dropdown-contents.
- Finally, remove the right (left in RTL locales) padding to reduce the chance of the *default* browser dropdown-icon being visible.

[1] This affects e.g. the `de` and `nl` locales, but there's probably other examples as well.
This is needed for some smoke tests in mozilla central for testing forms
in pdf.js.
Note: AnnotationLayerBuilder.render() doesn't really need to be async, but
we're talking of making the annotation's render functions async, so this
will make that switch easier.
Currently using a touchscreen with pdf.js doesn't work so well. In Firefox,
with apz.allow_zooming = false (default on current release/beta), it does a
reflow zoom which makes the UI elements bigger. And with apz.allow_zooming = true
(default on current Firefox nightly), or in Chrome, it does a smooth pinch-zoom
but that also scales up the entire UI. Neither of these is a particularly good
experience, so this patch just disables any multi-touch gestures. Touch-based
panning (which involves a single touch point) is left unaffected.
I obviously missed this during review, but currently `PDFViewerApplication._saveInProgress` is reset *synchronously* in `PDFViewerApplication.save`.
That was probably not intended, since it essentially renders the `PDFViewerApplication._saveInProgress` check pointless given that the actual saving is an *asynchronous* operation.
The original code would get a long sequence of miniscule "tick" values while
pinch-zooming, and each tick value would cause a 1.1x zoom. So even the smallest
pinch gesture on a trackpad would cause high amounts of zoom. This patch
accumulates the wheel deltas until they reach an integer threshold (with a
tweak of the scaling factor to make it feel more natural) at which point it
triggers the zoom based on the integer component of the accumulated delta. The
fractional part is retained in the accumulator.
Prior to PR 11601, the `disableCreateObjectURL` option was present on `getDocument` in the API, since it was (potentially) used when decoding JPEG images natively in the browser. Hence setting this option, which was done automatically using compatibility-code, were in some browsers necessary in order for e.g. JPEG images to be correctly rendered.
The downside of the `disableCreateObjectURL` option is that memory usage increases significantly, since we're forced to build and use `data:` URIs (rather than `blob:` URLs).
However, at this point in time the `disableCreateObjectURL` option is only necessary for *some* (non-essential) functionality in the default viewer; in particular:
- The openfile functionality, used only when manually opening a new file in the default viewer.
- The download functionality, used when downloading either the PDF document itself or its attached files (if such exists).
- The print functionality, in the generic `PDFPrintService` implementation.
Hence neither the general PDF.js library, nor the *basic* functionality of the default viewer, depends on the `disableCreateObjectURL` option any more; which is why I'm thus proposing that we remove the option since using it is a performance footgun.
*Please note:* To not outright break currently "supported" browsers, which lack proper `URL.createObjectURL` support, this patch purposely keeps the compatibility-code to explicitly disable `URL.createObjectURL` usage *only* for browsers which are known to not work correctly.[1]
While it's certainly possible that there's additional, likely older, browsers with broken `URL.createObjectURL` support, the last time that these types of problems were reported was over *three* years ago.[2]
Hence in the *very* unlikely event that additional problems occur, as a result of these changes, we can either add a new case in the compatibility-code or simply declare the affected browser as unsupported.
---
[1] Which are IE11 (see issue 3977), and Google Chrome on iOS (see PR 8081).
[2] Given that `URL.createObjectURL` is used by default, you'd really expect more reports if these problems were widespread.
With recent changes, these event handlers are now essentially identical. Hence a new helper function is added, to reduce unnecessary duplication (will also be helpful with upcoming changes).
These two classes are unsurprisingly quite similar, and with upcoming changes[1] the amount of (essentially) duplicated code will increase even further.
Notable changes:
- Collect shared functionality in the `BaseTreeViewer` class, reducing both current and future code-duplication.
- Reduce unnecessary duplication in the CSS rules, which will be particularly useful with upcoming changes.
- Tweak the attachmentsView to use links, rather than buttons, to simplify (primarily) the CSS rules.
---
[1] Once API support for "Optional Content" lands, I've got more-or-less finished patches to add viewer support as well.
While the parameter name (clearly) suggests that an `AnnotationStorage`-instance is expected, looking at the only call-sites that include the parameter (i.e. the `PDFPrintServiceFactory` instances) it actually contains just a normal Object.
Hence it seems much more reasonable to actually pass a valid `AnnotationStorage`-instance, as the name suggests, and simply have `PDFPageProxy.render` do the `annotationStorage.getAll()` call. (Since we cannot send an `AnnotationStorage`-instance as-is to the worker-thread, given the "structured clone algorithm".)
Since the attachment fetching/parsing is already asynchronous, possibly delaying the dispatching of an "attachmentsloaded" event should thus not be a problem in general.
Note that in some cases, i.e. PDF documents with no "regular" attachments and only FileAttachment annotations, we'll thus no longer dispatch an "attachmentsloaded" event when `attachmentsCount === 0` and instead wait for the FileAttachment parsing to finish. (The use of a timeout still guarantees that an "attachmentsloaded" event is *eventually* dispatched though.)
This patch *considerably* simplifies the "attachmentsloaded" event handler, in `PDFSidebar`, since the details are now abstracted away from the consumer.
Finally, add a check in `_appendAttachment` to ensure (indirectly) that the FileAttachment annotation is actually relevant for the active document.
This approach is already used in other parts of the code-base, see e.g. `PDFOutlineViewer`, and has the advantage of only invalidating the DOM once rather than for every attachment item.
This reverts commit 50f73092e1. This
causes an inconsistency with the integrated find bar that should be
discussed more before moving on with this (refer to PR #12141).
*The [api-minor] label probably ought to have been added to the original PR, given the changes to the `createAnnotationLayerBuilder` signature (if nothing else).*
This patch fixes the following things:
- Let the `AnnotationLayer.render` method create an `AnnotationStorage`-instance if none was provided, thus making the parameter *properly* optional. This not only fixes the reference tests, it also prevents issues when the viewer components are used.
- Stop exporting `AnnotationStorage` in the official API, i.e. the `src/pdf.js` file, since it's no longer necessary given the change above. Generally speaking, unless absolutely necessary we probably shouldn't export unused things in the API.
- Fix a number of JSDocs `typedef`s, in `src/display/` and `web/` code, to actually account for the new `annotationStorage` parameter.
- Update `web/interfaces.js` to account for the changes in `createAnnotationLayerBuilder`.
- Initialize the storage, in `AnnotationStorage`, using `Object.create(null)` rather than `{}` (which is the PDF.js default).
These changes improves the existing search functionality triggered when
the URL contains a `#search` hash.
In addition to performing the actual search immediately like before,
this will ensure the search text field inside the find bar gets
populated with the text currently being searched for.
- Given the `DefaultExternalServices` implementation, the `PDFViewerApplication.supportsDocumentFonts` getter is guaranteed to be defined and we can thus remove some (now) unnecessary `PDFJSDev` checks from the `webViewerInitialized` function.
- By slightly tweaking the "pdfBugEnabled" definition in `web/app_options`, similar to the existing ones for "workerSrc" and "cMapUrl", we can remove some `PDFJSDev` checks from the `PDFViewerApplication._parseHashParameters` method.
The current behavior for `getPagesOverview` assumes we want to only
auto-rotate if:
- `enablePrintAutoRotate` is `true`
- `isFirstPagePortrait !== isPortraitOrientation(size)`
This second check is what is breaking #9297. The two PDFs linked have a
landscape orientation first page, as well as subsequent pages. Since
`false === false`, we print portrait.
Let's drop the comparison with `isFirstPagePortrait`, and print
landscape if `!isPortraitOrientation(size)`.
Fixes#9297.
Given the dummy-methods on `DefaultExternalServices`, there's no longer any compelling reason not to (attempt to) report telemetry unconditionally.
The only larger change consists of moving the `KNOWN_VERSIONS` and `KNOWN_GENERATORS` arrays ouf of the `PDFViewerApplication._initializeMetadata` method.
*Please note:* Most of this patch consists of whitespace-only changes.
There's a few things that could be improved in the current implementation, such as:
- It's currently necessary to *both* manually track the `featureId`s which should trigger delayed fallback, as well as manually report telemetry in affected cases.
Obviously there's only two call-sites as of now (forms and javaScript), but it still feels somewhat error-prone especially if more cases were to be added in the future. To address this, this patch adds a new (private) method which abstracts away these details from the call-sites.
- Generally, it also seems nice to reduce *and* simplify the amount of state we need to store on `PDFViewerApplication` in order to support the "delayedFallback" functionality.
Also, having to *manually* work with the "delayedFallback"-array in multiple places feels cumbersome and makes e.g. the `PDFViewerApplication.fallback` method less clear as to its behaviour.
- Having code *outside* of `PDFViewerApplication`, i.e. in the event handlers, directly access properties which are marked as "private" via a leading underscore doesn't seem that great in general.
Furthermore, having the event handlers directly deal with that should be internal state also seem unfortunate. To address this, the patch will instead make use of a new `PDFViewerApplication.triggerDelayedFallback` callback.
- There's at least one code-path in the viewer, see `PDFViewerApplication.error`, where `fallback` can be called without an argument.
It's currently possible (although maybe somewhat unlikely) that such a call *could* be overridden by the `featureId` of a pending "delayedFallback" call, thus not reporting the *correct* fallback reason.
- The "delayedFallback"-state weren't being reset on document close (which shouldn't affect Firefox, but nonetheless it ought to be fixed).
For now we need to use a Babel-plugin, since Webpack 4.x doesn't seem to support it yet. (Most likely we'll have to update to Webpack 5, once that becomes available, in order for this to be directly supported. This is thus also blocked on removing the `webpack-stream` package.)
While the `??` operator will thus always be transpiled by Babel, even in modern builds, simply supporting it for development purposes seems like a step in the right direction.

With the changes in previous patches, the `disableCreateObjectURL` option/functionality is no longer used for anything in the API and/or in the Worker code.
Note however that there's some functionality, mainly related to file loading/downloading, in the GENERIC version of the default viewer which still depends on this option.
Hence the `disableCreateObjectURL` option (and related compatibility code) is moved into the viewer, see e.g. `web/app_options.js`, such that it's still available in the default viewer.
With these changes SystemJS is now only used, during development, on the worker-thread and in the unit/font-tests, since Firefox is currently missing support for worker modules; please see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687
Hence all the JavaScript files in the `web/` and `src/display/` folders are now loaded *natively* by the browser (during development) using standard `import` statements/calls, thanks to a nice `import-maps` polyfill.
*Please note:* As soon as https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687 is fixed in Firefox, we should be able to remove all traces of SystemJS and thus finally be able to use every possible modern JavaScript feature.
Given that the `getPDFFileNameFromURL` helper function has a specific code-path for handling non-string inputs, this empty string fallback really isn't necessary at the call-site in `web/pdf_document_properties.js`.
Apparently the old link format used in MOZCENTRAL-builds, with the blob URL separated from the filename with a `?` character violates the specification; see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1632644#c5
Obviously just removing the `?`-part of the URL would have worked, but that would also have meant that we'd no longer be able to provide the correct filename when the user attempts to download the opened PDF attachment.
To fix this we'll instead append the filename in the hash-part of the URL, which however required using a *custom* hash-parameter to avoid triggering the fallback "named destination" code-paths in the viewer.
Note that only changing the `web/pdf_attachment_viewer.js` file wasn't sufficient to fix the bug, and we also need to tweak the `webViewerInitialized` function in `web/app.js` since MOZCENTRAL-builds used to ignore *everything* in the URL hash.
This particular code is very old, but changing it *should* be completely safe given that the `PDFViewerApplication.setTitleUsingUrl` method since some time now stores both the original URL (in `this.url`) as well as one without the hash (in `this.baseUrl`). The latter one is already used everywhere where it matters, so this change seem fine to me.
This patch thus restores the original behaviour for PDF attachments in the MOZCENTRAL-build, by once again allowing them to be opened *directly* in the browser without downloading. (The fallback added in PR 11845 is obviously kept, since it seems generally useful to have.)
Originally the `default_preferences.json` file was checked into the repository, and we thus needed to load it in non-PRODUCTION mode (which was originally done asynchronously using `XMLHttpRequest`). Over the years a lot has changed and the `default_preferences.json` file is now built, by the `gulp default_preferences` task, from the `web/app_options.js` file. Hence it's no longer necessary, in non-PRODUCTION mode, to use SystemJS here since we can simply use a standard `import` statement instead.
Note how e.g. `web/app.js` already imports from `web/app_options.js` in the same exact way that `web/preferences.js` now does, hence this patch will *not* result in any significant changes in the built/bundled viewer file.
This is another (small) part in trying to reduce usage of SystemJS, with the goal of hopefully getting rid of it completely. (I've started working on this, and doing so has identified a number of problem areas; this patch addresses one of them.)
This replaces some additional `require`/`exports` usage with standard `import`/`export` statements instead.
Hence another, small, part in the effort to reduce the reliance on SystemJS-specific functionality in the development viewer.
Given that the `PDFLinkService.setHash` method itself if completely synchronous, moving the handling of "nameddest" to occur last *shouldn't* cause any problems (famous last words).
This way the destination will still override any previous parameter, such as e.g. the "page", as expected. Furthermore, given that the `PDFLinkService.navigateTo` method is asynchronous that should provide additional guarantees that the "nameddest" parameter is always respected.
As sort-of expected, this fairly innocent looking change also required some tweaks in the `PDFHistory` to prevent dummy history entires upon document load (only an issue when both "page" *and* "nameddest" parameters are provided in the hash).
This rule complements the existing `accessor-pairs` nicely, and ensures that a getter/setter pair is always consistently ordered.
Please find additional details about this rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/grouped-accessor-pairs
By preserving the exception type, more fine-grained error handling can be performed via client-side logic (e.g. redirect to a search page if a PDF is not found, or to a ticket system in case of invalid PDF files).
The original exception is now re-thrown.
Fixes#11658
This is a simple work-around for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1632644 which was caused by platform changes in Firefox. Ideally the Firefox bug should still be fixed, but these PDF.js changes seem generally useful to prevent both current and future issues here.
There's no particular reason for using the PDF.js helper function `createObjectURL` here, given that the relevant code-path is already guarded by multiple "disableCreateObjectURL" option checks.
Given that `URL.createObjectURL` is assumed to always be available in MOZCENTRAL builds, note the existing usage in the file, there's no reason to depend on the PDF.js helper function `createObjectURL` at all here.
Furthermore this patch also changes `DownloadManager.downloadData` to actually revoke the `blobUrl` after downloading has completed, which is similar to the existing code in `DownloadManager.download`.
This is necessary in order to support cases where the default viewer is embedded in a *dynamically* created <iframe> element.
In order to also support a use-case where there's *multiple* <iframe> elements (containing default viewers) on the same page, the "webviewerloaded" event now includes a `source` detail parameter such that it's possible to associate an event with the relevant DOM element.
Somewhat surprisingly, despite the GENERIC viewer implementing "openfile" support, there's never been a keyboard shortcut available. Similar to the previous patch, this utilizes the `EventBus` for consistency with the `Toolbar`/`SecondaryToolbar` buttons.
*Please note:* This patch should NOT be construed as carte blanche to simply convert all of the code in `webViewerKeyDown`, or elsewhere, to make use of the `EventBus` instead of direct function calls.
Any further changes, along the lines in this patch, would need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if they are actually wanted, given that many/most existing cases in `webViewerKeyDown` should already be *indirectly* observable through the `EventBus` instance.
This improves the consistency of the "download" handling, in the default viewer, such that the `Toolbar`/`SecondaryToolbar` buttons *and* the keyboard shortcut are now handled in the same way (using the `EventBus`).
Given that the "download" keyboard shortcut handling is limited to GENERIC/CHROME builds and that the issue does raise a valid point about only being able to observe *some* downloads, these changes seem acceptable in this particular case.
Finally the pre-processor condition is adjusted to *explicitly*, rather than implicitly, list the affected build targets.
*Please note:* This patch should NOT be construed as carte blanche to simply convert all of the code in `webViewerKeyDown`, or elsewhere, to make use of the `EventBus` instead of direct function calls.
Any further changes, along the lines in this patch, would need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if they are actually wanted, given that many/most existing cases in `webViewerKeyDown` should already be *indirectly* observable through the `EventBus` instance.
These two `AppOptions` are only defined in GENERIC builds, hence it's completely unnecessary to check them in the extension builds (e.g. MOZCENTRAL and CHROME).
Also, simply let the "printResolution" option be defined in all builds since it's being accessed in `web/firefox_print_service.js` as well.
*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
What the user did:

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).
*Please note:* Most of the necessary API work was done in PR 10033, and the only remaining thing to do here was to implement it in the viewer.
The new preference should thus allow e.g. enterprise users to disable copying in the viewer, for PDF documents whose permissions specify that.
In order to simplify things the "copy"-permission was implemented using CSS, as suggested in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792816#c55, which should hopefully suffice.[1]
The advantage of this approach, as opposed to e.g. disabling the `textLayer` completely, is first of all that it ensures that searching still works correctly even in copy-protected documents. Secondly this also greatly simplifies the overall implementation, since it doesn't require a lot of code for something that's disabled by default.
---
[1] As the discussion in the bug shows, this kind of copy-protection is not very strong and is also generally easy to remove/circumvent in various ways. Hence a simple solution, targeting "regular"-users rather than "power"-users is hopefully deemed acceptable 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.
- Use template strings when printing document/viewer information in `_initializeMetadata`, since the old format feels overly verbose.
Also, get the WebGL state from the `BaseViewer` instance[1] rather than the `AppOptions`. Since the `AppOptions` value could theoretically have been changed (by the user) after the viewer components were initialized, it seems much more useful to print the *actual* value that'll be used during rendering.
- Change `_initializePdfHistory` to actually do the "is embedded"-check first, in accordance with the comment and given that the "disableHistory" option usually shouldn't be set.
---
[1] Admittedly reaching into the `BaseViewer` instance and just grabbing the value perhaps isn't a great approach overall, but given that the WebGL-backend isn't even on by default this probably doesn't matter too much.
Over time, with more and more API-functionality added, the `PDFViewerApplication.load` method has become quite large and complex. In an attempt to improve the current situation somewhat, this patch moves the fetching and initialization of "auto print" out into its own (private) helper method instead.

Over time, with more and more API-functionality added, the `PDFViewerApplication.load` method has become quite large and complex. In an attempt to improve the current situation somewhat, this patch moves the fetching and initialization of "page labels" out into its own (private) helper method instead.
This avoids unnecessary duplication of many images, thus reducing the size of PDF.js image resources slightly.
Note that since the images should only be flipped horizontally, this required specifying the horizontal/vertical scaling separately for the hiDPI-images.
This functionality was only added to the default viewer for backwards compatibility and to support the various PDF viewer tests in mozilla-central, with the intention to eventually remove it completely.
While the different mozilla-central tests cannot be *easily* converted from DOM events, it's however possible to limit that functionality to only MOZCENTRAL builds *and* when tests are running.
Rather than depending of the re-dispatching of internal events to the DOM, the default viewer can instead be used in e.g. the following way:
```javascript
document.addEventListener("webviewerloaded", function() {
PDFViewerApplication.initializedPromise.then(function() {
// The viewer has now been initialized, and its properties can be accessed.
PDFViewerApplication.eventBus.on("pagerendered", function(event) {
console.log("Has rendered page number: " + event.pageNumber);
});
});
});
```
The correct/intended way of working with the "viewer components" is by providing an `EventBus` instance upon initialization, and the `getGlobalEventBus` was only added for backwards compatibility.
Note, for example, that using `getGlobalEventBus` doesn't really work at all well with a use-case where there's *multiple* `PDFViewer` instances on a one page, since it may then be difficult/impossible to tell which viewer a particular event originated from.
All of the "viewer components" examples have been previously updated, such that there's no longer any code/examples which relies on the now removed `getGlobalEventBus` functionality.
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).
Given that none of the relevant options are marked as optional in the code/JSDocs, and that the `PDFDocumentProperties` class is specific to the default viewer (and not exposed as part of the viewer components), there's no good reason as far as I can tell for these checks.
The `BaseViewer.setDocument` method in particular is necessary for rendering to start when the viewer loads, hence you obviously want that to happen as soon as possible and without any unnecessary delays.
Unfortunately *some* API calls need to be done before that, note existing comments, however the `ViewHistory` initialization (and subsequent fetching of data) in particular can be moved slightly without any adverse effects.
As part of testing I've used logging with `performance.now()` inserted in various parts of this code, and there's *obviously* no discernible changes between `master` and this patch for e.g. rendering starting in the viewer.
*Note:* The vast majority of this patch is simple indentation changes, which were forced by Prettier (and done automatically with `gulp lint --fix`).
- Ensure that `database.files` actually contains an Array, rather than some arbitrary data.
- Only try to lookup an existing entry when the `database` existed on load, since there's obviously nothing to find when `database.files = []` was set (this case is very common in the MOZCENTRAL build since `sessionStorage` is being used there).
This property has never been documented and/or *intentionally* exposed through the API, instead the `PDFPageProxy.pageNumber` property is the documented/intended API to use here.
Hence pageIndex is changed to a "private" property on `PDFPageProxy` instances, and internal API functionality is also updated to *consistently* use `this._pageIndex` rather than a mix of formats.
The viewer doesn't currently support executing of any JavaScript, as found in some PDF documents, for security reasons. (Although there's a small hack to at least provide basic support for automatic printing on document load, without running scripts.)
However, in the event that the browser doesn't support printing we're not run *any* of this code. In particular that means that we're also not displaying the "Warning: JavaScript is not supported" message, which seems strange since JavaScript found in a PDF document can really contain *anything* (and not only printing instructions).
It thus seem reasonable, as far as I'm concerned, to always display the JavaScript-warning *even* if printing happens to be unsupported.
*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
While Firefox originally used transition effects for browser UI toolbar buttons, that was removed years ago in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1393057
Since the PDF.js viewer toolbar transitions were likely based on the Firefox ones, it seems reasonable that these transition effects are removed from PDF.js as well. Besides removing a bunch of CSS, this also makes the toolbar feel ever so slightly more "snappy" without these delays on mouse interaction.
(In order to make it more feasible to modernize/improve the viewer UI, trying to clean-up/simplify existing rules iteratively seems like the most reasonble way to make any progress here w.r.t. being able to test/review things.)
For reasons that I don't even pretend to understand, the `textLayerFactory` property is determined for *every single* page in the PDF document.
Given that the `TextLayerMode` should be consistent for *all* pages in a document, we obviously could/should define `textLayerFactory` just once instead.
There's a couple of issues with this functionality:
- The respective `PromiseCapability` instances are not being reset, in `BaseViewer._resetView`, when the document is closed which is inconsistent with all other state.
- While the default viewer depends on these promises, and they thus ought to be considered part of e.g. the `PDFViewer` API-surface, they're not really defined in a particularily user-visible way (being that they're attached to the `BaseViewer` instance *inline* in `BaseViewer.setDocument`).
- There's some internal `BaseViewer` state, e.g. `BaseViewer._pageViewsReady`, which is tracked manually and could instead be tracked indirectly via the relevant `PromiseCapability`, thus reducing the need to track state *twice* since that's always best to avoid.
*Please note:* In the existing implementation, these promises are not defined *until* the `BaseViewer.setDocument` method has been called.
While it would've been simple to lift that restriction in this patch, I'm purposely choosing *not* to do so since this ensures that any Promise handlers added inside of `BaseViewer.setDocument` are always invoked *before* any external ones (and keeping that behaviour seems generally reasonable).
