This method is very old, however with the exception of the auto-print hack (when scripting is disabled) in the viewer it's never actually been used.
Most likely the idea with `PDFDocumentProxy.getJavaScript` was that it'd be useful if scripting support was added, however it turned out that it was a bit too simplistic and instead a number of new methods were added for the scripting use-cases.
When searching for "endobj"-operators, make sure that we don't accidentally match a "trailer"-string in /Content-streams without /Filter-entries (i.e. streams that contain "raw" and thus human-readable data).
When the flag is set, the appearance has to be generated from the value so it's
useless/meaningless to extract the content from the existing appearance.
When a pdf has /NeedAppearances set to true, the annotation appearance must be
generated from its value and we must take into account the hasOwnCanvas property.
*Please note:* I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this, however that might be more luck than anything else.
In PR 16392 the `incrementalUpdate` function, and all of its various helpers, were made asynchronous. However the call-site in `src/core/worker.js` wasn't updated, which means that we currently reset temporary XRef-entries while saving is ongoing.
With the changes in the previous patch the `isNodeJS`-helper no longer needs to live in its own file, which helps get rid of a closure in the *built* files.
- Take into account the page translation,
- Take into account the correct translation for the editor border,
- Take into account the position of the first glyph in the annotation,
- Take into account the rotation of the editor.
Close#16633.
- Do the /Filter and /DecodeParms lookup in parallel, since that ought to be a *tiny* bit more efficient.
- Avoid code-duplication when `CompressionStream` isn't supported, since we already have a fallback code-path at the end of the function.
The existing code is unable to *correctly* extract the color from the appearance-stream when the ColorSpace-data is "complex". To reproduce this:
- Open `freetexts.pdf` in the viewer.
- Note the purple color of the "Hello World from Preview" annotation.
- Enable any of the Editors.
- Note how the relevant annotation is now black.
Note how we're accidentally using the wrong operator when trying to parse CMYK colors. I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this, since it seems uncommon in practice for annotations to specify text-colors in CMYK format.
When there was a rotation, the generated bbox was wrong because of an inversion
between width and height.
This patch aims to fix this issue in re-writing the FreeText code generation
to have something similar to what Acrobat does.
And fix the name of the font which wasn't the correct one when calling the
evaluator.
In order to minimize the size the of a saved pdf, we generate only one
image and use a reference in each annotation using it.
When printing, it's slightly different since we have to render each page
independantly but we use the same image within a page.
- it'll help to be able to move popups on screen to let the user read the text
- popups won't inherit some properties from their parent:
- the popup can be misrendered if for example the parent has a clip-path property.
- add an outline to the popup when the parent is focused.
- hide a popup when it's clicked.
Fix handling of /Filter-entries, since the current implementation could potentially corrupt the data if there's multiple filters present.
Please note that filters are applied *sequentially* during decoding, starting from the first one in the Array, hence the first Array-entry needs to be /FlateDecode in order for things to actually work correctly.
To prevent a future bug, if we want to save more "complex" data such as images, also ensure that we include any existing /DecodeParms-entries when updating the /Filter-entry.
- 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.
