Having this parameter among a list of DOM-elements seems slightly strange now, however this is very old code hence the explanation for why this was done is for historical reasons (as is often the case).
Hence we can simply move this into `AppOptions` instead, which seems more appropriate overall.
The doorhanger for highlighting has a basic color picker composed of 5 predefined colors
to set the default color to use.
These colors can be changed thanks to a preference for now but it's something which could
be changed in the Firefox settings in the future.
Each highlight has in its own toolbar a color picker to just change its color.
The different color pickers are so similar (modulo few differences in their styles) that
this patch introduces a new class ColorPicker which provides a color picker component
which could be reused in future editors.
All in all, a large part of this patch is dedicated to color picker itself and its style
and the rest is almost a matter of wiring the component.
The `viewerCssTheme`-implementation has always been somewhat hacky, and now it's also *partially* broken ever since we've started using CSS nesting.
Trying to support nested media queries would thus require a lot more parsing of the CSS rules, which seems inefficient and thus generally undesirable.[1]
As discussed on Matrix, let's try to remove the `viewerCssTheme`-option and see if there's any (significant) fallout from this.
---
[1] If this option is brought back, it seems to me that it (in Firefox) should probably be set through the platform-code that handles theming.
With the changes in PR 17208, where browser-preferences are now handled as "regular" viewer-options, we can tweak the definition of `canvasMaxAreaInBytes` to slightly simplify things in the `PDFViewerApplication.open` method.
Given that this branch is only necessary in development mode and *during* building, but is never actually used in the final viewer-bundles, we can utilize the pre-processor to ignore this code.
Currently we *synchronously* fetch a number of browser preferences/options, from the platform code, during the viewer respectively PDF document initialization paths.
This seems unnecessary, and we can re-factor the code to instead include the relevant data when fetching the regular viewer preferences.
*Please note:* This patch contains a couple of micro-optimizations, hence I understand if it's deemed unnecessary.
Move the `AppOptions` initialization into the `Preferences` constructor, since that allows us to remove a couple of function calls, a bit of asynchronicity and one loop that's currently happening in the early stages of the default viewer initialization.
Finally, move the `Preferences` initialization to occur a *tiny* bit earlier since that cannot hurt given that the entire viewer initialization depends on it being available.
At this point in time all browsers, and also Node.js, support standard `import`/`export` statements and we can now finally consider outputting modern JavaScript modules in the builds.[1]
In order for this to work we can *only* use proper `import`/`export` statements throughout the main code-base, and (as expected) our Node.js support made this much more complicated since both the official builds and the GitHub Actions-based tests must keep working.[2]
One remaining issue is that the `pdf.scripting.js` file cannot be built as a JavaScript module, since doing so breaks PDF scripting.
Note that my initial goal was to try and split these changes into a couple of commits, however that unfortunately didn't really work since it turned out to be difficult for smaller patches to work correctly and pass (all) tests that way.[3]
This is a classic case of every change requiring a couple of other changes, with each of those changes requiring further changes in turn and the size/scope quickly increasing as a result.
One possible "issue" with these changes is that we'll now only output JavaScript modules in the builds, which could perhaps be a problem with older tools. However it unfortunately seems far too complicated/time-consuming for us to attempt to support both the old and modern module formats, hence the alternative would be to do "nothing" here and just keep our "old" builds.[4]

[1] The final blocker was module support in workers in Firefox, which was implemented in Firefox 114; please see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/import#browser_compatibility
[2] It's probably possible to further improve/simplify especially the Node.js-specific code, but it does appear to work as-is.
[3] Having partially "broken" patches, that fail tests, as part of the commit history is *really not* a good idea in general.
[4] Outputting JavaScript modules was first requested almost five years ago, see issue 10317, and nowadays there *should* be much better support for JavaScript modules in various tools.
Given that the `useOnlyCssZoom` option is essentially just a special-case of the `maxCanvasPixels` functionality, we can combine the two options in order to simplify the overall implementation.
Note that the `useOnlyCssZoom` functionality was only ever used, by default, in the PDF Viewer for the B2G/FirefoxOS project (which was abandoned years ago).
*Please note:* This only removes the preference itself, however both the viewer-option and the actual implementation is still available.
The `useOnlyCssZoom` functionality was only ever used, by default, in the PDF Viewer for the B2G/FirefoxOS project (which was abandoned years ago). Given that CSS-only zooming can easily make the document look blurry even at low zoom levels, this functionality was only intended for low-powered mobile devices.
Hence it seems reasonable to remove the `useOnlyCssZoom` preference now, since neither the default viewer nor the GeckoView-specific viewer uses this functionality.
- 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.
Now that https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247687 has landed in Firefox, we're able to use worker-modules during development :-)
This removes the final piece of SystemJS usage from the PDF.js library, thus allowing a fair bit of clean-up, and we now use *only* native `import`/`export` statements everywhere in development mode.
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.
For the moment there is no real consensus on how we should download a pdf on Android.
Hence we keep this solution for the moment but behind a pref (which will be true on
nightly only).
The tag <base> is used to resolve relative URIs within the document.
Newly added SVG filters use a relative URI which then use the URI in base
but this one mismatches with the document URI and consequently filters are
not found in the Firefox viewer.
So this patch just removes <base> and replace few relative URLs by absolute
ones.
This patch removes the recently introduced `transferPdfData` API-option, and simply enables transferring of TypedArray data *by default* instead of copying it. This will help reduce main-thread memory usage, however it will take ownership of the TypedArrays. Currently this only applies to the following cases:
- TypedArrays passed to the `getDocument`-function in the API, in order to open PDF documents from binary data.
- TypedArrays passed to a `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance, used to support custom PDF document fetching/loading (see e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer).
*PLEASE NOTE:* To avoid being affected by this, please simply *copy* any TypedArray data before passing it to either of the functions/methods mentioned above.
Now that we transfer TypedArray data that we previously only copied, we need to be more careful with input validation. Given how the `{IPDFStreamReader, IPDFStreamRangeReader}.read` methods will always return ArrayBuffer data, which is then transferred to the worker-thread[1], the actual TypedArray data passed to the API thus need to have the same exact size as its underlying ArrayBuffer to prevent issues.
Hence we'll check for this and only allow transferring of *safe* TypedArray data, and fallback to simply copying the data just as before. This obviously shouldn't be an issue in the Firefox PDF Viewer, but for the general PDF.js library we need to be more careful here.

Also, removes the `initialData`-parameter JSDocs for the `getDocument`-function given that this parameter has been completely unused since PR 8982 (over five years ago). Note that the `initialData`-parameter is, and always was, intended to be provided when initializing a `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance.
This option/preference was disabled in GENERIC builds, see PR 15812, to avoid landing it *just before* a new release. Hence it should be fine to enable this now.
Right now, the visible pages are redrawn for each scale change.
Consequently, zooming with mouse wheel or in pinching can be pretty janky
(even on a desktop machine but with a hdpi screen).
So the main idea in this patch is to draw the visible pages only once zooming
is finished.
This patch first of all makes `isOffscreenCanvasSupported` configurable, defaulting to `true` in browsers and `false` in Node.js environments, with a new `getDocument` parameter. While you normally want to use this, in order to improve performance, it should still be possible for users to control it (similar to e.g. `isEvalSupported`).
The specific problem, as reported in issue 14952, is that the SVG back-end doesn't support the new ImageMask data-format that's introduced in PR 14754. In particular:
- When the SVG back-end is used in Node.js environments, this patch will "just work" without the user needing to make any code changes.
- If the SVG back-end is used in browsers, this patch will require that `isOffscreenCanvasSupported: false` is added to the `getDocument`-call.
This replaces the boolean `annotationEditorEnabled` option/preference with a "proper" `annotationEditorMode` one. This way it's not only possible for the user to control if Editing is enabled/disabled, but also which *specific* Editing-mode should become enabled upon PDF document load.
Given that Editing is not enabled/released yet, I cannot imagine that changing the name and type of the option/preference should be an issue.
For encrypted PDF documents without the required permissions set, this patch adds support for disabling of Annotation-editing. However, please note that it also requires that the `pdfjs.enablePermissions` preference is set to `true` (since PDF document permissions could be seen as user hostile).[1]
As I started looking at the issue, it soon became clear that *only* trying to fix the issue without slightly re-factor the surrounding code would be somewhat difficult.
The following is an overview of the changes in this patch; sorry about the size/scope of this!
- Use a new `AnnotationEditorUIManager`-instance *for each* PDF document opened in the GENERIC viewer, to prevent user-added Annotations from "leaking" from one document into the next.
- Re-factor the `BaseViewer.#initializePermissions`-method, to simplify handling of temporarily disabled modes (e.g. for both Annotation-rendering and Annotation-editing).
- When editing is enabled, let the Editor-buttons be `disabled` until the document has loaded. This way we avoid the buttons becoming clickable temporarily, for PDF documents that use permissions.
- Slightly re-factor how the Editor-buttons are shown/hidden in the viewer, and reset the toolbar-state when a new PDF document is opened.
- Flip the order of the Editor-buttons and the pre-exising toolbarButtons in the "toolbarViewerRight"-div. (To help reduce the size, a little bit, for the PR that adds new Editor-toolbars.)
- Enable editing by default in the development viewer, i.e. `gulp server`, since having to (repeatedly) do that manually becomes annoying after a while.
- Finally, support disabling of editing when `pdfjs.enablePermissions` is set; fixes issue 15049.

[1] Either manually with `about:config`, or using e.g. a [Group Policy](https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates).
This option is not used, nor has it ever been used, in the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer. Hence we can define it only for the environments where it makes sense instead.
Given that the SVG back-end is not defined anywhere except in GENERIC builds, we can remove a little bit of unnecessary code in e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer.
- Approximate the drawn curve by a set of Bezier curves in using
js code from https://github.com/soswow/fit-curves.
The code has been slightly modified in order to make the linter
happy.
Given the differences between XFA documents and "normal" PDF documents, we don't support editing of the former ones. Hence, when a XFA-document is opened, we temporarily disable the editor-buttons.
Given that the new API-option is an Object named `pageColors`, with `background`/`foreground` keys, it occurred to me that it'd be slightly more consistent if the options/preferences names fully reflected that.
- Use Canvas & CanvasText color when they don't have their default value
as background and foreground colors.
- The colors used to draw (stroke/fill) in a pdf are replaced by the bg/fg
ones according to their luminance.
