With these changes, we'll now *always* replace all whitespaces with standard spaces (0x20). This behaviour is already, since many years, the default in both the viewer and the browser-tests.
This patch circumvents the issues seen when trying to update TypeScript to version `4.5`, by "simply" fixing the broken/missing JSDocs and `typedef`s such that `gulp typestest` now passes.
As always, given that I don't really know anything about TypeScript, I cannot tell if this is a "correct" and/or proper way of doing things; we'll need TypeScript users to help out with testing!
*Please note:* I'm sorry about the size of this patch, but given how intertwined all of this unfortunately is it just didn't seem easy to split this into smaller parts.
However, one good thing about this TypeScript update is that it helped uncover a number of pre-existing bugs in our JSDocs comments.
On the main thread call `driver.log` and the message will output in the
terminal with the pdf id and the message.
I've been using this a lot when trying to find certain PDFs or logging
stats.
- First step to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1737260;
- several interactive pdfs use the possibility to hide/show buttons to show different icons;
- render pushbuttons on their own canvas and then insert it the annotation_layer;
- update test/driver.js in order to convert canvases for pushbuttons into images.
There were some links not working in some XFA files,I realized that the anchor tag that contains the link has an inline display and couldn't receive any height, solved this by adding a "position: absolute". Tested with two different files in Firefox Nightly and Chrome and now all links are working perfectly fine. Added reftest to avoid future regressions
Note how both the annotationLayer and the document outline will apply various URL-related options when creating the link-elements.
For consistency the `xfaLayer`-rendering should obviously use the same options, to ensure that the existing options are indeed applied to all URLs regardless of where they originate.
Rather than re-computing this value in a number of different places throughout the code-base[1], we can expose this in the API via the existing `PixelsPerInch`-structure instead.
There's also been feature requests asking for the old `CSS_UNITS` viewer constant to be made accessible, such that it could be used in third-party implementations.
I suppose that it could be argued that it's somewhat confusing to place a unitless property in `PixelsPerInch`, however given that the `PDF_TO_CSS_UNITS`-property is defined strictly in terms of the existing properties this is hopefully deemed reasonable.

[1] These include:
- The viewer, with the `CSS_UNITS` name.
- The reference-tests.
- The display-layer, when rendering images; see PR 13991.
While some of the output looks worse to my eye, this behavior more
closely matches what I see when I open the PDFs in Adobe acrobat.

*This is a follow-up to PRs 13867 and 13899.*
This patch is tagged `api-minor` for the following reasons:
- It replaces the `renderInteractiveForms`/`includeAnnotationStorage`-options, in the `PDFPageProxy.render`-method, with the single `annotationMode`-option that controls which annotations are being rendered and how. Note that the old options were mutually exclusive, and setting both to `true` would result in undefined behaviour.
- For improved consistency in the API, the `annotationMode`-option will also work together with the `PDFPageProxy.getOperatorList`-method.
- It's now also possible to disable *all* annotation rendering in both the API and the Viewer, since the other changes meant that this could now be supported with a single added line on the worker-thread[1]; fixes 7282.
---
[1] Please note that in order to simplify the overall implementation, we'll purposely only support disabling of *all* annotations and that the option is being shared between the API and the Viewer. For any more "specialized" use-cases, where e.g. only some annotation-types are being rendered and/or the API and Viewer render different sets of annotations, that'll have to be handled in third-party implementations/forks of the PDF.js code-base.
The new command is a *variation* of the standard `gulp test` command and will run all unit/font/integration-tests just as normal, while *only* running ref-tests for XFA-documents to speed up development.
Given that we currently have (some) unit-tests for XFA-documents, and that we may also (in the future) want to add integration-tests, it thus makes sense to run all test-suites in my opinion.
*Please note:* Once this patch has landed, I'll submit a follow-up patch to https://github.com/mozilla/botio-files-pdfjs such that we can also run the new command on the bots.
*While I cannot guarantee that this will fix the recent intermittents, this patch really shouldn't hurt.*
By setting the Image `src` first, there's a small possibility that the Image is loaded *before* we've had a change to attach the `onload`/`onerror` callbacks which may cause the Promise to remain in a pending state.
Note that prior to PR 13641 we didn't correctly await all image resources to actually load, which could explain the very recent intermittent test-failures.
This patch uses the new option added in PR 12726 to *also* allow fetching binary CMap data directly in the worker-thread in browsers.
Given that these changes remove the need to transfer data between threads for the default (browser) use-case, we can also revert the changes in PR 11118 since that simplifies the overall implementation.
When a PDF is "marked" we now generate a separate DOM that represents
the structure tree from the PDF. This DOM is inserted into the <canvas>
element and allows screen readers to walk the tree and have more
information about headings, images, links, etc. To link the structure
tree DOM (which is empty) to the text layer aria-owns is used. This
required modifying the text layer creation so that marked items are
now tracked.
Note how we purposely don't expose the `AnnotationStorage`-class directly in the official API (see `src/pdf.js`), since trying to use *multiple* ones simultaneously doesn't really make sense (e.g. in the viewer).
Instead we lazily initialize, and cache, just *one* instance via `PDFDocumentProxy.annotationStorage` which should thus be available internally in the API itself without having to be manually passed to various methods.
To support these changes, the `AnnotationStorage`-instance initialization is moved into the `WorkerTransport`-class to allow both `PDFDocumentProxy` and `PDFPageProxy` to access it.
This patch implements the following simplifications:
- Remove the `annotationStorage`-parameter from `PDFDocumentProxy.saveDocument`, since it's already available internally.
Furthermore, while it's currently possible to call that method without an `AnnotationStorage`-instance, that really does *not* make any sense at all. In this case you're effectively reducing `PDFDocumentProxy.saveDocument` to a "regular" `PDFDocumentProxy.getData` call, but with *a lot* more overhead, which was obviously not the intention of the `PDFDocumentProxy.saveDocument`-method.
- Try to discourage third-party users from calling `PDFDocumentProxy.saveDocument` unconditionally, as a replacement for `PDFDocumentProxy.getData` (note the previous point).
- Replace the `annotationStorage`-parameter, in `PDFPageProxy.render`, with a boolean `includeAnnotationStorage`-parameter which simply indicates if the (internally available) `AnnotationStorage`-instance should be used during rendering (e.g. for printing).
- By removing the need to *manually* provide `annotationStorage`-parameters to various API-methods, using the API should become simpler (e.g. for third-parties) since you no longer need to worry about manually fetching and passing around this data.
- Actually support *linked* test-cases in the integration-tests (in the same way as the unit-tests).
- Add a new `"type": "other"`-kind to the test-manifest, to support *linked* test-cases in the unit/integration-tests without requiring the PDF document in question to also be a reference-test.
A significant portion of the code-base has now been converted to use `let`/`const`, rather than `var`, hence it should be possible to simply enable the ESLint `no-var` rule globally.
This way we can ensure that new code won't accidentally use `var`, and it also removes the need to manually enable the rule in various folders.
Obviously it makes sense to continue the efforts to replace `var`, but that should probably happen on a file and/or folder basis.
Please note that this patch excludes the following code:
- The `extensions/` folder, since that seemed easiest for now (and I don't know exactly what the support situation is for the Chromium-extension).
- The entire `external/` folder is ignored, since most of it's currently excluded from linting.
For the code that isn't imported from elsewhere (and should be ignored), we should probably (at some point) bring the code up to the same linting/formatting standard as the rest of the code-base.
- Various files in the `test/` folder are ignored, as necessary, since the way that a lot of this code is loaded will require some care (or perhaps larger re-factoring) when removing `var` usage.
Currently errors occurring within the `src/display/{text_layer, annotation_layer}.js` files are not being handled properly by the test-suite, and the tests simply time out rather than failing as intended.
This makes it *very* easy to accidentally overlook a certain type of errors, see e.g. https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/13055#discussion_r589005041, which this patch will thus prevent.
This commit includes support for rendering pages in printing mode,
which, when combined with annotation storage data, is useful for testing
if form data is correctly rendered onto the printed canvas.
*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).
The f1040-annotations reftest started hanging after #12107. We traced
this to `TypeError: can't access property "getOrCreateValue", storage is
undefined`.
We essentially need to add `annotationStorage` to the parameters in
test/driver.js.
The default viewer, and thus Firefox, depends on the `RenderTask.onContinue` functionality to pause/continue rendering (such that the most visible page always renders first).
Despite this functionality thus being very important, it has however never actually been tested *at all* as far as I can tell. Hence this patch which adds a new boolean `renderTaskOnContinue` parameter (`false` by default), that can be used to force a reference-test to use the `RenderTask.onContinue` code-path in the `InternalRenderTask` class.
Note that I purposely made this new reference-test behaviour *optional*, since I didn't want to negatively affect the general runtime of the tests (given that there's a slight delay added to the rendering). Also, for e.g. benchmarking you'd most likely want to stay away from the `RenderTask.onContinue` functionality for similar reasons.
Currently some JPEG images are decoded by the built-in PDF.js decoder in `src/core/jpg.js`, while others attempt to use the browser JPEG decoder. This inconsistency seem unfortunate for a number of reasons:
- It adds, compared to the other image formats supported in the PDF specification, a fair amount of code/complexity to the image handling in the PDF.js library.
- The PDF specification support JPEG images with features, e.g. certain ColorSpaces, that browsers are unable to decode natively. Hence, determining if a JPEG image is possible to decode natively in the browser require a non-trivial amount of parsing. In particular, we're parsing (part of) the raw JPEG data to extract certain marker data and we also need to parse the ColorSpace for the JPEG image.
- While some JPEG images may, for all intents and purposes, appear to be natively supported there's still cases where the browser may fail to decode some JPEG images. In order to support those cases, we've had to implement a fallback to the PDF.js JPEG decoder if there's any issues during the native decoding. This also means that it's no longer possible to simply send the JPEG image to the main-thread and continue parsing, but you now need to actually wait for the main-thread to indicate success/failure first.
In practice this means that there's a code-path where the worker-thread is forced to wait for the main-thread, while the reverse should *always* be the case.
- The native decoding, for anything except the *simplest* of JPEG images, result in increased peak memory usage because there's a handful of short-lived copies of the JPEG data (see PR 11707).
Furthermore this also leads to data being *parsed* on the main-thread, rather than the worker-thread, which you usually want to avoid for e.g. performance and UI-reponsiveness reasons.
- Not all environments, e.g. Node.js, fully support native JPEG decoding. This has, historically, lead to some issues and support requests.
- Different browsers may use different JPEG decoders, possibly leading to images being rendered slightly differently depending on the platform/browser where the PDF.js library is used.
Originally the implementation in `src/core/jpg.js` were unable to handle all of the JPEG images in the test-suite, but over the last couple of years I've fixed (hopefully) all of those issues.
At this point in time, there's two kinds of failure with this patch:
- Changes which are basically imperceivable to the naked eye, where some pixels in the images are essentially off-by-one (in all components), which could probably be attributed to things such as different rounding behaviour in the browser/PDF.js JPEG decoder.
This type of "failure" accounts for the *vast* majority of the total number of changes in the reference tests.
- Changes where the JPEG images now looks *ever so slightly* blurrier than with the native browser decoder. For quite some time I've just assumed that this pointed to a general deficiency in the `src/core/jpg.js` implementation, however I've discovered when comparing two viewers side-by-side that the differences vanish at higher zoom levels (usually around 200% is enough).
Basically if you disable [this downscaling in canvas.js](8fb82e939c/src/display/canvas.js (L2356-L2395)), which is what happens when zooming in, the differences simply vanish!
Hence I'm pretty satisfied that there's no significant problems with the `src/core/jpg.js` implementation, and the problems are rather tied to the general quality of the downscaling algorithm used. It could even be seen as a positive that *all* images now share the same downscaling behaviour, since this actually fixes one old bug; see issue 7041.
The other testing code already uses the name of the browser as the
unique identifier, so I don't see a good reason to not use that for
identifying browsers to quit as well. Doing so simplifies the (already
somewhat complex) testing logic and ensures that we can use existing
functionality (such as the `getSession` function) to retrieve sessions.
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).
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).
This rule is *not* currently enabled in mozilla-central, but it appears commented out[1] in the ESLint definition file; see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/c80fa7258c935223fe319c5345b58eae85d4c6ae/tools/lint/eslint/eslint-plugin-mozilla/lib/configs/recommended.js#238-239
Unfortunately this rule is, for fairly obvious reasons, impossible to `--fix` automatically (even partially) and each case thus required careful manual analysis.
Hence this ESLint rule is, by some margin, probably the most difficult one that we've enabled thus far. However, using this rule does seem like a good idea in general since allowing variable shadowing could lead to subtle (and difficult to find) bugs or at the very least confusing code.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-shadow
---
[1] Most likely, a very large number of lint errors have prevented this rule from being enabled thus far.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
With the recent introduction of Prettier this sort of mass enabling of ESLint rules becomes a lot easier, since the code will be automatically reformatted as necessary to account for e.g. changed line lengths.
Note that this patch is generated automatically, by using the ESLint `--fix` argument, and will thus require some additional clean-up (which is done separately).
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
