According to the PDF spec 5.3.2, a positive value means in horizontal,
that the next glyph is further to the left (so narrower), and in
vertical that it is further down (so wider).
This change fixes the way PDF.js has interpreted the value.
CMaps may be sparse. Array.prototype.forEach is terribly slow in Chrome
(and also in Firefox) when the sparse array contains a key with a high
value. E.g.
console.time('forEach sparse')
var a = [];
a[0xFFFFFF] = 1;
a.forEach(function(){});
console.timeEnd('forEach sparse');
// Chrome: 2890ms
// Firefox: 1345ms
Switching to CMap.prototype.forEach, which is optimized for such
scenarios fixes the problem.
Currently if a font contains a `toUnicode` entry, we always create a new `ToUnicodeMap` in evaluator.js. This is done even for `IdentityV/IdentityH`, despite to possibility to use the much more compact `IdentityToUnicodeMap` representation.
This patch refactors the `IdentityH/IdentityV` cases, to:
- Avoid calling `IdentityCMap.getMap`, since this prevents allocating and iterating through an array with 65536 elements.
- Ensure that the handling of `toUnicode` is actually correct in fonts.js.
We rely on `toUnicode instanceof IdentityToUnicodeMap` in a few places, and currently this does not work correctly for `IdentityH/IdentityV`.
As described in #5444, the evaluator will perform identity checking of
paintImageMaskXObjects to decide if it can use
paintImageMaskXObjectRepeat instead of paintImageMaskXObjectGroup.
This can only ever work if the entry is a cache hit. However the
previous caching implementation was doing a lazy caching, which would
only consider a image cache worthy if it is repeated.
Only then the repeated instance would be cached.
As a result of this the sequence of identical images A1 A2 A3 A4 would
be seen as A1 A2 A2 A2 by the evaluator, which prevents using the
"repeat" optimization. Also only the last encountered image is cached,
so A1 B1 A2 B2, would stay A1 B1 A2 B2.
The new implementation drops the "lazy" init of the cache. The threshold
for enabling an image to be cached is rather small, so the potential waste
in storage and adler32 calculation is rather low. It also caches any
eligible image by its adler32.
The two example from above would now be A1 A1 A1 A1 and A1 B1 A1 B1
which not only saves temporary storage, but also prevents computing
identical masks over and over again (which is the main performance impact
of #2618)
setGStateForKey() is a closure that serves no particularly useful
purpose. This change inlines it at the single call site. This avoids 1.7
MiB of allocations (because closures are objects) for the MTA map
mentioned in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=835380#c17.
For the document in #2504, 11% of the ops are `setGState` with a
`gStateObj` that is an empty array, which is a no-op. This is possible
because we ignore various setGState keys (OP, OPM, BG, etc).
This change prevents these ops from being inserted into the operator
list.
EvaluatorPreprocessor_read() is called in two cases. For the normal
layer, the args array it produces is used beyond the bounds of the loop
in which EvaluatorPreprocessor_read() is called.
But for the text layer, the args array is used in a very short-term
fashion. This change reworks things so that a single array is repeatedly
used for the text layer. This reduces total JS allocations for the
Spoorkaart map by 11%, and has similar effects on many other PDFs.
After PR 4982, the rendering of the first two pages of http://www.openmagazin.cz/pdf/2011/openMagazin-2011-04.pdf (from issue 215) no longer completes.
The issue is that we cannot have `args === null` in `PartialEvaluator_buildPath`, but *must* use an empty array instead.
In this patch I've also moved the `argsLength` variable definition in `EvaluatorPreprocessor_read`, to make sure that it's always defined.
QueueOptimizer is really hard to read. Enough so that it's blocking my
efforts to streamline the representation used for operator lists.
This patch improves its readability in the following ways.
- More descriptive variable names make the sequence checking much clearer,
as do additional comments.
- The addState() functions now return the index of the first op past the
sequence, instead of setting context.currentOperation to the last op of
the sequence.
- The loop in optimize() is clearer.
- The array modification in the fourth addState() function is much clearer
-- we're just removing trios of ops.
- All four |addState| functions are now more consistent with each other.
I used some debug printfs to find documents where these optimizations are
used and then checked that the number of optimized ops was the same before
and after my changes.
This function can be called 100s of 1000s or even millions of times, and the
allocated return object accounts for 10% of all GC thing allocations for some
documents. It's easy to avoid, which reduces stress on the garbage collector,
and this patch does that.
PartialEvaluator.getTextContent() builds up textChunk strings 1 char at a time,
creating many 100s of 1000s of intermediate strings along the way. This patch
make it instead push chars to an array and then join them at the end, as we
have done in numerous other places.
