When the text of an annotation is extracted in using getTextContent, consecutive white spaces
are just replaced by one space and. So this patch add an option to make sure that white
spaces are preserved when appearance is parsed.
For the case where there's no appearance, we can have a fast path to get the correct string
from the Content entry.
When an existing FreeText is edited, space (0x20) are replaced by non-breakable (0xa0) ones
to make to see all of them on screen.
- For the generic viewer we use @fluent/dom and @fluent/bundle
- For the builtin pdf viewer in Firefox, we set a localization url
and then we rely on document.l10n which is a DOMLocalization object.
The main stamp button will be used to just enter in a add/edit image mode:
- the user can add a new image in using the new button.
- the user can edit an image in resizing, moving it.
In image mode, when the user clicks outside on the page but not on an editor,
then all the selected editors will be unselected.
When moving an element in the DOM, the focus is potentially lost, so we need to make sure
that the focused element before the translation will get back its focus after it.
But we must take care to not execute any focus/blur callbacks because the user didn't
do anything which should trigger such events: it's a detail of implementation. For example,
when several editors are selected and moved, then at the end the same must be selected, so
no element receive a focus event which will set it as selected.
The way that the callback-methods are specified feels unnecessarily verbose, however we can introduce a short-hand to improve this.
Also, adds a couple of new-lines to improve overall readability.
Selected editors can be moved in using the arrows:
- up/down/left/right will move the editors of 1 in page unit;
- ctrl (or meta)+up/down/left/right will move them of 10 in page unit.
- 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.
- 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.
As far as I can tell there's no particular reason for initializing `KeyboardManager`-instances eagerly, since the user may never use editing, and we can easily do this lazily instead by utilizing shadowed getters.
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.
An annotation editor layer can be destroyed when it's invisible, hence some
annotations can have a null parent but when printing/saving or when changing
font size, color, ... of all added annotations (when selected with ctrl+a) we
still need to have some parent properties especially the page dimensions, global
scale factor and global rotation angle.
This patch aims to remove all the references to the parent in the editor instances
except in some cases where an editor should obviously have one.
It fixes#15780.
The main issue is due to the fact that an editor's parent can be null when
we want to serialize it and that lead to an exception which break all the
saving/printing process.
So this incomplete patch fixes only the saving/printing issue but not the
underlying problem (i.e. having a null parent) and doesn't bring that much
complexity, so it should help to uplift it the next Firefox release.
- For text fields
* when printing, we generate a fake font which contains some widths computed thanks to
an OffscreenCanvas and its method measureText.
In order to avoid to have to layout the glyphs ourselves, we just render all of them
in one call in the showText method in using the system sans-serif/monospace fonts.
* when saving, we continue to create the appearance streams if the fonts contain the char
but when a char is missing, we just set, in the AcroForm dict, the flag /NeedAppearances
to true and remove the appearance stream. This way, we let the different readers handle
the rendering of the strings.
- For FreeText annotations
* when printing, we use the same trick as for text fields.
* there is no need to save an appearance since Acrobat is able to infer one from the
Content entry.
- When we're editing some annotations, keeping the role="text-box" make them visible
as editable and VoiceOver (Mac) is able to read the contents when they're focused;
- Add an attribute "aria-activedescendant" in order to make the content discoverable
by NVDA on Windows.
This patch doesn't structurally change the text layer: it just adds some aria-owns
attributes to some spans.
The aria-owns attribute expect to have an element id, hence it's why it adds back an
id on the element rendering an annotation, but this id is built in using crypto.randomUUID
to avoid any potential issues with the hash in the url.
The elements in the annotation layer are moved into the DOM in order to have them in the
same "order" as they visually are.
The overall goal is to help screen readers to present to the user the annotations as
they visually are and as they come in the text flow.
It is clearly not perfect, but it should improve readability for some people with visual
disabilities.
