This method was added in PR 4938, almost nine years ago, however it doesn't appear to ever have been used.
Given the similarities between the `PDF17` and `PDF20` classes, and how they're used, if the `PDF20.hash` method was actually necessary you'd also expect a similiar method in the `PDF17` class.
The "binary" CMap-format is specific to the PDF.js library, and is used to reduce the size of the built-in CMap data-files.
By moving this code to its own file we can remove the nowadays unnecessary closures, which helps to slightly reduce the size of this code.
Some arabic chars like \ufe94 could be searched in a pdf, hence it must be normalized
when creating the search query. So to avoid to duplicate the normalization code,
everything is moved in the find controller.
The previous code to normalize text was using NFKC but with a hardcoded map, hence it
has been replaced by the use of normalize("NFKC") (it helps to reduce the bundle size
by 30kb).
In playing with this \ufe94 char, I noticed that the bidi algorithm wasn't taking into
account some RTL unicode ranges, the generated font wasn't embedding the mapping this
char and the unicode ranges in the OS/2 table weren't up-to-date.
When normalized some chars can be replaced by several ones and it induced to have
some extra chars in the text layer. To avoid any regression, when copying some text
from the text layer, a copied string is normalized (NFKC) before being put in the
clipboard (it works like this in either Acrobat or Chrome).
This *special* build-target is very old, and was introduced with the first pre-processor that only uses comments to enable/disable code.
When the new pre-processor was added `PRODUCTION` effectively became redundant, at least in JavaScript code, since `typeof PDFJSDev === "undefined"` checks now do the same thing.
This patch proposes that we remove `PRODUCTION` from the JavaScript code, since that simplifies the conditions and thus improves readability in many cases.
*Please note:* There's not, nor has there ever been, any gulp-task that set `PRODUCTION = false` during building.
This method was originally added in PR 1320, eleven years ago, however it doesn't appear to ever have been used (not even from the start).
Furthermore, this method also tries to access a property that doesn't exist (`this.out`) and then call a method that also doesn't exist (`writeByteArray`).
In looking at https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=706451 I noticed that bug2.pdf was pretty
slow to load for such a basic file.
In profiling I noticed that a lot of time is spent in Array.concat, hence this patch use Array.push when
it's possible (it's now ~3 times faster).
The changes in PR 16238 were intended specifically for Node.js environments, however they accidentally applied to older browsers as well.
*Please note:* In up-to-date browsers `Path2D` is available in Workers, which should be connected to the introduction of `OffscreenCanvas`.
Apparently the `structuredClone` polyfill doesn't handle transfers correctly, and `DOMException`s may thus be thrown. This is particularly problematical in Node.js environments, where that exception (obviously) isn't available.
To work-around these issues we'll simply ignore any transfers in `legacy`-builds, since those *may* use the `structuredClone` polyfill. This will obviously lead to slightly higher memory usage in those builds, however this really only affects Node.js environments. (Browsers are only affected if workers are disabled, however that's never been an officially recommended/supported configuration.)
Currently we have two separate image-caches on the worker-thread:
- A local one, which is unique to each `PartialEvaluator.getOperatorList` invocation. This one caches both names *and* references, since image-resources may be accessed in either way.
- A global one, which applies to the entire PDF documents and all its pages. This one only caches references, since nothing else would work.
This patch introduces a third image-cache, which essentially sits "between" the two existing ones. The new `RegionalImageCache`[1] will be usable throughout a `PartialEvaluator` instance, and consequently it *only* caches references, which thus allows us to keep track of repeated image-resources found in e.g. different /Form and /SMask objects.

[1] For lack of a better word, since naming things is hard...
*Please note:* This parameter has never been used within the PDF.js library/viewer itself, and it was only ever added for backwards compatibility reasons.
This parameter was added in PR 7475, over six years ago, to try and optionally maintain the previous *default* text-extraction behaviour.
However as part of the general text-extraction improvements in PR 13257, almost two years ago, the `disableCombineTextItems` functionality was accidentally "broken" in various ways. Note how the only (very basic) unit-test was updated in a way that doesn't really make sense, since generally speaking you'd expect that using the option should result in *more* (or at least the same number of) text-items. Furthermore there's also the recent issue 16209, where the option causes almost all textContent to be concatenated together.
Hence this patch proposes that we simply remove the `disableCombineTextItems` option since it's essentially unused/untested functionality, as evident from the fact that it took almost two years for someone to notice that it's broken.
Originally we used helper functions for checking if something was a Dictionary or Stream, and then having an initial `typeof` check probably made sense.
However, given that we're using `instanceof` nowadays the additional check longer seems necessary.
Currently we're *virtually* duplicating the same code, for validating quotation marks, twice in this helper function.
The size decrease is quite small (107 bytes) and this makes the code slightly harder to reader, hence I completely understand if this patch is rejected.
Given that this functionality only applies in the viewer, when `PDFBug` is being enabled and used, it can't hurt to slightly reduce the size of this code.
Having just reviewed a patch touching this code, I couldn't help noticing that an `Object` isn't really the optimal data-structure for this and nowadays we can do better by using a `Set` instead.
This is something that I completely overlooked in PR 16162, which in some cases cause the default viewer to incorrectly print warnings.
This can be reproduced with the PAGE scrolling-mode, and/or the PresentationMode, and this patch simply work-around it by checking the visibility as well (since the warning is a best-effort solution anyway).
The `pageColors`-option was removed from the `CanvasGraphics`-constructor in PR 16075, hence the code in the API no longer needs to pass in that option; this is something that I missed during review.
The idea is to apply an overall filter on each page: the main advantage
is to have some filtered images which could help to make them visible for
some users.
During review of PR 16151 this method was simplified, however I overlooked the fact that we now can (and really should) improve this by removing duplication.
Unfortunately I don't believe that we can simply add a default `--scale-factor` CSS-variable to the `container`-element, since that might not be entirely appropriate/correct in all cases.[1]
However, we can at least print a console-error to hopefully make this situation more apparent to users. (This is purposely not using the `warn` helper-function, since those messages can be disabled.)
---
[1] One example is in our reference-tests, where we don't need to add it to the `container`-element itself.
With the previous commit this is now completely unused in API, hence it can be removed. This is done in a separate commit to make it easier to re-instate it, would the need ever arise.
This patch extends PR 16115 to work in all browsers, regardless of their `OffscreenCanvas` support, such that transfer functions will be applied to general rendering (and not just image data).
In order to do this we introduce the `BaseFilterFactory` that is then extended in browsers/Node.js environments, similar to all the other factories used in the API, such that we always have the necessary factory available in `src/display/canvas.js`.
These changes help simplify the existing `putBinaryImageData` function, and the new method can easily be stubbed-out in the Firefox PDF Viewer.
*Please note:* This patch removes the old *partial* transfer function support, which only applied to image data, from Node.js environments since the `node-canvas` package currently doesn't support filters. However, this should hopefully be fine given that:
- Transfer functions are not very commonly used in PDF documents.
- Browsers in general, and Firefox in particular, are the *primary* development target for the PDF.js library.
- The FAQ only lists Node.js as *mostly* supported, see https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#faq-support
In the general PDF.js library multiple PDF documents may be opened on the same web-page, which is why we many years ago started using document-specific identifiers to prevent issues with global data such e.g. with fonts.
Hence we need to treat the identifiers generated by the `FilterFactory` in the same way, since the SVG-filters for two separate PDF documents may otherwise get identical ids.
PDF gradients do not have color stops but an arbitrary PDF function of
the type f(t) -> color. CSS gradients are only based on color stops.
Most PDF gradient functions are produced from color stop oriented
gradients.
Take advantage of this by sampling the PDF function at a higher
frequency but not converting any samples which could be interpolated to
color stops. The sampling frequency is chosen to be the least common
multiple of as many values as practical to exactly re-create the common
case of the PDF function implementing equally spaced linearly
interpolated stops in RGB color space. This also allows for better
approximation of other smooth PDF functions (non-linear, or non-equally
spaced, or in different color space).
Fixes: #10572, #14165
The current value originated in PR 2317, and in the decade that have passed the amount of RAM available in (most) devices should have increased a fair bit.
Nowadays we also do a much better job of detecting repeated images at both the page- and document-level, which helps reduce overall memory-usage in many documents.
Finally the constant is also moved into the `src/shared/util.js` file, since it was implicitly used on both the main- and worker-thread previously.
Currently in PDF documents with large images we immediately cleanup once rendering has finished, in order to reduce memory-usage.
Normally that shouldn't be a big problem, however when e.g. repeated zooming happens in the viewer that could easily lead to a lot of wasted resources (and waiting).
Hence this patch, which introduces a new `PDFPageProxy` method that will slightly delay cleanup after rendering.
The dimensions still need to be fixed (from times to times they're in px)
but it doesn't have to be postponed anymore.
To test it: draw something and when resizing look at the dimensions of the div
in devtools, the units must be %.
This simply extends the approach in PR 10727 to also cover Patterns, which shouldn't be a common occurrence in Type3 fonts (since this is the first issue we've seen).
This patch updates the minimum supported environments as follows:
- Node.js 16, which was released on 2021-04-20; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node.js#Releases
Note also that Node.js 14 will very soon reach EOL, and thus no longer receive any security updates.
This was deprecated in PR 15758, which has now been included in three official PDF.js releases.
While PR 15880 did limit the bundle-size impact of this functionality on e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer, it still leads to some unnecessary "bloat" that these changes remove.
Furthermore, with this being deprecated there'd also be no effort put into e.g. extending the `UNSUPPORTED_FEATURES` list when handling future error cases.
The idea is to encode large image in BMP format (which is very simple and doesn't
require to compute any checksums) and then use createImageBitmap with a BMP blob
(which doesn't suffer of the Canvas/ImageData limits).
From a performance point of view, it isn't crazy (generating a large blob + decoding
it on the main thread is really not ideal) but at least we've something to display
which is a way better than a blank page (and one can notice that most of the time is
spent in decoding the image from the pdf stream).
PDF 32000-1:2008 7.10.5.1 "Type 4 (PostScript Calculator) Functions"
defers to the PostScript Language Reference for the description of these
functions. The PostScript Language Reference, third edition chapter 8
"Operators" defines the `angle` type as a "number of degrees". Section
8.1 defines "angle `sin` real", "angle `cos` real", and "num den `atan`
angle". The documentation for `atan` further states that it will return
an angle in degrees between 0 and 360.
Handle these operators correctly in `PostScriptEvaluator.execute`.
Convert the inputs to `sin` and `cos` from degrees to radians for use
with `Math.sin` and `Math.cos`. Correctly pop two values from the stack
for `atan`, use `Math.atan2`, and convert from radians to (positive)
degrees.
This was deprecated in PR 15943, which has now been included in two official PDF.js releases.
Given that `PDFDataRangeTransport` is somewhat unlikely to be used outside of the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer, it doesn't seem necessary to wait longer before removing this.
Also, removes the specific error-message for GENERIC builds to not unnecessarily "advertise" using non-objects when calling the `getDocument`-function.
*Please note:* This patch is written using the GitHub UI, since I'm currently without a dev machine, so hopefully it works correctly.
We introduced the use of OffscreenCanvas in #14754 and this patch aims
to use them for all kind of images.
It'll slightly improve performances (and maybe slightly decrease memory use).
Since an image can be rendered in using some transfer maps but because of
OffscreenCanvas we don't have the underlying pixels array the transfer maps
stuff is re-implemented in using the SVG filter feComponentTransfer.
Rather than repeatedly initializing a `canvasFactory`-instance for every page, move it to the document-level instead.
*Please note:* This patch is written using the GitHub UI, since I'm currently without a dev machine, so hopefully it works correctly.
Currently we repeat the `FeatureTest.isOffscreenCanvasSupported` checks all over the worker-thread code, and with upcoming changes this will become even "worse".
Hence this patch, which changes the *worker-thread* default value for the `isOffscreenCanvasSupported`-parameter to `false` and moves the feature-testing into the `BasePdfManager`-constructor.
*Please note:* This patch is written using the GitHub UI, since I'm currently without a dev machine, so hopefully it works correctly.
Currently some `getCtx` calls will have `isOffscreenCanvasSupported === undefined` set, meaning that `OffscreenCanvas` isn't being used as intended, since no `TextLayerRenderTask._isOffscreenCanvasSupported` property exists.
*Please note:* This patch is written using the GitHub UI, since I'm currently without a dev machine, so hopefully it works correctly.
I noticed several 'Path not found' errors because of a field called #subform[2].
From the XFA specs, the hash is used for a class of elements in the template tree.
When we're looking for a node in the datasets tree, it doesn't make sense to search
for a class. Hence the path element starting with a hash are just skipped.
