Given that this is a shadowed getter, the `opMap` is already lazily initialized and it shouldn't be necessary to *also* use the `getLookupTableFactory` helper function here. Looking at the history of the code, it seems that this is simply a leftover from before JavaScript classes existed.
- Don't attempt to lookup an "SM" entry, since we're only using "SMask" in the `PDFImage` code and I also cannot find any mention in the PDF specification about that being a valid abbreviation for a Soft Mask entry. (There's only a `SM = Smoothness Tolerance` Graphics State parameter, which is obviously something completely different.)
- Don't lookup the /SMask and /Mask entries unless it's actually an inline image, since it's pointless otherwise.
- Last, but most importantly, only check for the *existence* of /SMask and /Mask entries but don't actually fetch the data. Note that if either one exists it'll contain a Stream, and those cannot be cached on the `XRef`-instance, which leads to unnecessary parsing/allocations and in this case we're not using the actual data for anything.
This patch is the result of me going through some old issues regarding non-embedded Wingdings support.
There's a few different things wrong in the referenced PDF document:
- The /BaseFont and /FontName entries don't agree on the name of the fonts, with one font using `/BaseFont /Wingdings-Regular` and `/FontName /wg09np` which obviously makes no sense.
To address this we'll compare the font-names against our lists of known ones and ignore /FontName entries that don't make sense iff the /BaseFont entry is a known font-name.
- The non-embedded Wingdings font also set an incorrect /Encoding, in this case /MacRomanEncoding, which should have been fixed by PR 16465. However this doesn't work since the font has *bogus* font-flags, that fail to categorize the font as Symbolic.
To address this we'll also compare the font-name against the list of known symbol fonts.
Now that font-substitution has been implemented, we should be able to do much a better job at supporting non-embedded Wingdings fonts.
Given that this is a Windows-specific font, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingdings, this is however not guaranteed to work (well) on other platforms.
The affected font is non-embedded ZapfDingbats, however the PDF document for some inexplicable reason specifies the encoding as "WinAnsiEncoding" (which is obviously wrong).
To work-around this bug in the PDF generator, we'll simply ignore any explicitly specified named encoding for non-embedded symbol fonts.
The `fontID` handling is quite old and predates the use of the `idFactory` to generate a unique id for each font, hence we can simplify this code a little bit.
This essentially extends PR 11218 to also apply when looking up the final font-reference, via the XRef-table, fails because the font isn't available.
This patch also changes `PartialEvaluator.fallbackFontDict` to simply use "Helvetica" as the default font-name, since that seems generally reasonable given the now existing font-substitution code.
After PR 12563 we're now free to use optional chaining in the worker-thread as well. (This patch also fixes one previously "missed" case in the `web/` folder.)
For the MOZCENTRAL build-target this patch reduces the total bundle-size by `1.6` kilobytes.
On my computer, it takes few tenths of a second to load a local font.
Since a font can be used several times in a document, the cache will
improve performances.
- Replace FoxitSans with LiberationSans: LiberationSans is already there (for XFA) and we can use
it as a good replacement of FoxitSans.
- For now we just try to substitue standard fonts, the strategy is the following:
* we try to find a font locally from a hardcoded list;
* if it fails then we use Liberation as fallback (only for Helvetica for the moment);
* else we just fallback on the system serif/sansserif/monospace font.
This property was added in PR 12726 specifically for use in the `getFontType` function, indirectly used by the `PDFDocumentProxy.stats` getter in the API.
In PR 15880 that functionality was removed, but I forgot to remove this now unused font-property.
Now that we no longer depend on the old Babel version in SystemJS we can remove the `static get ...` work-arounds used to define constants, which leads to slightly more compact code.
When the `GlobalImageCache` implementation originally landed, back in PR 11912, the image handling was slightly more complex (with e.g. browser-decoding of some JPEG images). At this point it no longer seems necessary to manually handle pageIndexes in this way, and we should be able to simply inline that in the `GlobalImageCache.shouldCache` method.
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.
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.
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 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).
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.
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.
This was deprecated in PR 15758 but it's unfortunately quite difficult to tell if third-party users are depending on this, e.g. to implement custom error reporting, and if so to what extent.
However, thanks to the pre-processor we can limit *most* of this code to GENERIC builds which still seem like a worthwhile change.
These changes reduce the bundle size of the Firefox PDF Viewer by 3.8 kB in total.
This was deprecated in PR 15758 and given that it's quite unlikely that any third-party users are relying on this functionality, since it was only ever added to support telemetry reporting in the Firefox PDF Viewer, it should hopefully be fine to remove this fairly quickly.
These changes reduce the bundle size of the Firefox PDF Viewer by 4.5 kB in total.
