The initial issue with #8255 was I added a missing glyphs check to adjustMapping, but this caused us to skip re-mapping a glyph if the fontCharCode was a missingGlyph which in turn caused us to overwrite a valid glyph id with an invalid one. While fixing this, I also added a warning if the private use area is full since this also accidentally happened when I made a different mistake. This brought to light a number of issues where we map missing glyphs to notdef, but often the notdef is actually defined and then ends up being drawn. Now the glyphs don't get mapped in toFontChar and so they are not drawn by the canvas. Fixing the above brought up another issue though in bug1050040.pdf. In this PDF, the font fails to load by the browser and before we were still drawing the glyphs because it looked like the font had them, but with the fixes above the glyphs showed up as missing so we didn't attempt draw them. To fix this, I now throw an error when the loca table is in really bad shape and we fall back to trying to use a system font. We now also use this fall back if there are any format errors during converting fonts. |

PDF.js
PDF.js is a Portable Document Format (PDF) viewer that is built with HTML5.
PDF.js is community-driven and supported by Mozilla Labs. Our goal is to create a general-purpose, web standards-based platform for parsing and rendering PDFs.
Contributing
PDF.js is an open source project and always looking for more contributors. To get involved, visit:

Getting Started
Online demo
Browser Extensions
Firefox (and Seamonkey)
PDF.js is built into version 19+ of Firefox, however one extension is still available:
-
Development Version - This extension is mainly intended for developers/testers, and it is updated every time new code is merged into the PDF.js codebase. It should be quite stable, but might break from time to time.
-
Please note that the extension is not guaranteed to be compatible with Firefox versions that are older than the current ESR version, see the Release Calendar.
-
The extension should also work in Seamonkey, provided that it is based on a Firefox version as above (see Which version of Firefox does SeaMonkey 2.x correspond with?), but we do not guarantee compatibility.
-
Chrome
- The official extension for Chrome can be installed from the Chrome Web Store. This extension is maintained by @Rob--W.
- Build Your Own - Get the code as explained below and issue
gulp chromium. Then open Chrome, go toTools > Extensionand load the (unpackaged) extension from the directorybuild/chromium.
Getting the Code
To get a local copy of the current code, clone it using git:
$ git clone git://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js.git
$ cd pdf.js
Next, install Node.js via the official package or via nvm. You need to install the gulp package globally (see also gulp's getting started):
$ npm install -g gulp-cli
If everything worked out, install all dependencies for PDF.js:
$ npm install
Finally you need to start a local web server as some browsers do not allow opening
PDF files using a file:// URL. Run:
$ gulp server
and then you can open:
Please keep in mind that this requires an ES6 compatible browser; refer to Building PDF.js for usage with older browsers.
It is also possible to view all test PDF files on the right side by opening:
Building PDF.js
In order to bundle all src/ files into two production scripts and build the generic
viewer, run:
$ gulp generic
This will generate pdf.js and pdf.worker.js in the build/generic/build/ directory.
Both scripts are needed but only pdf.js needs to be included since pdf.worker.js will
be loaded by pdf.js. The PDF.js files are large and should be minified for production.
Using PDF.js in a web application
To use PDF.js in a web application you can choose to use a pre-built version of the library
or to build it from source. We supply pre-built versions for usage with NPM and Bower under
the pdfjs-dist name. For more information and examples please refer to the
wiki page on this subject.
Learning
You can play with the PDF.js API directly from your browser using the live demos below:
The repository contains a hello world example that you can run locally:
More examples can be found at the examples folder. Some of them are using the pdfjs-dist package, which can be built and installed in this repo directory via gulp dist-install command.
