Right now, editable annotations are using their own canvas when they're drawn, but
it induces several issues:
- if the annotation has to be composed with the page then the canvas must be correctly
composed with its parent. That means we should move the canvas under canvasWrapper
and we should extract composing info from the drawing instructions...
Currently it's the case with highlight annotations.
- we use some extra memory for those canvas even if the user will never edit them, which
the case for example when opening a pdf in Fenix.
So with this patch, all the editable annotations are drawn on the canvas. When the
user switches to editing mode, then the pages with some editable annotations are redrawn but
without them: they'll be replaced by their counterpart in the annotation editor layer.
Ensure that we never round the canvas dimensions above `maxCanvasPixels`
by rounding them to the preceeding multiple of the display ratio rather
than the succeeding one.
The `setTextContentSource` functionality is very old code, and was introduced years ago together with streaming of textContent.
By moving the `streamTextContent`-call into the `TextLayerBuilder` class we collect more functionality in one place and slightly reduce the amount of code needed.
This is very old code, and predates e.g. the introduction of JavaScript classes, which creates unnecessarily unwieldy code in the viewer.
By introducing a new `TextLayer` class in the API, similar to how e.g. the `AnnotationLayer` looks, we're able to keep most parameters on the class-instance itself. This removes the need to manually track them in the viewer, and simplifies the call-sites.
This also removes the `numTextDivs` parameter from the "textlayerrendered" event, since that's only added to support default-viewer functionality that no longer exists.
Finally we try, as far as possible, to polyfill the old `renderTextLayer` and `updateTextLayer` functions since they are exposed in the library API.
For *simple* invocations of `renderTextLayer` the behaviour should thus be the same, with only a warning printed in the console.
If a user manually calls `PDFPageView.prototype.update()` with a `drawingDelay`-option then it'll always be necessary to re-call the method *without* a delay afterwards, regardless of the `maxCanvasPixels`-value (e.g. even when CSS-only zooming is used).
With recent improvements to the `AppOptions`, e.g. with better validation and testing, one remaining "annoyance" is the `compatibilityParams` handling. Especially since there's only *a single* parameter left, limited to GENERIC builds.
To further reduce the amount of unnecessary code in e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer, we can move the `compatibilityParams` handling into the user-options instead since that keeps the previous precedence order between default/user-options.
Previously we'd simply export this directly from `web/app_options.js`, which meant that it'd be technically possible to *accidentally* modify the `compatibilityParams` Object when accessing it.
To avoid this we instead introduce a new `AppOptions`-method that is used to lookup data in `compatibilityParams`, which means that we no longer need to export this Object.
Based on these changes, it's now possible to simplify some existing code in `AppOptions` by taking full advantage of the nullish coalescing (`??`) operator.
- Ensure that localization works in the GENERIC viewer, even if the necessary locale files cannot be loaded.
This was the behaviour prior to the introduction of Fluent, and it seems worthwhile to keep that (especially since we already bundle the en-US strings anyway).
- Let the `GenericL10n`-implementation use the *bundled* en-US strings directly when no language is provided.
- Remove the `NullL10n`-implementation, and simply fallback to `GenericL10n`, to reduce the maintenance burden of viewer-components localization.
- Indirectly, given the previous point, stop exporting `NullL10n` in the viewer-components since it's now removed.
Note that it was never really intended to be used directly and only existed as a fallback.
*Please note:* This doesn't affect the Firefox PDF Viewer, thanks to the use of import maps.
In order to do that we must change the text layer opacity to 1 but
it has several implications:
- the selection color must have an alpha component,
- the background color of the span used for highlighted words
must have an alpha component either, but now the opacity is 1
we can use some backdrop-filters in HCM making the highlighted
words more visible.
- fix a regression caused by #17196: the css variable --hcm-highlight-filter
has to live under the #viewer element because in HCM it's overwritten
by js at this level, hence links annotations for example didn't
have the right colors when hovered.
The system locale (used in OffscreenCanvas) can be different from the one guessed by Fluent,
consequently, in order to avoid any mismatch, we just use an attached canvas element.
The original issue can easily be reproduced locally in adding a lang="ja" in viewer.html
(or with an other language for Japanese users).
Note that we must append the textLayer to the DOM *before* enabling the `highlighter` and `accessibilityManager`, to avoid breaking e.g. a pending searching operation.
The least invasive solution, that I was able to come up with, is to introduce a new `TextLayerBuilder` callback-function for this purpose.
After PR 17177 the interface of `XfaLayerBuilder` is now inconsistent, since whether or not we directly append the xfaLayer to the DOM now depends on the rendering intent.
Looking at the `PDFThumbnailView.setPageLabel` method you'll see that we update e.g. the "aria-label" of the thumbnail-image for documents that contain (valid) pageLabels.
This isn't done in `PDFPageView`, which seems inconsistent, hence this patch.
This patch changes almost all viewer-components[1] to use "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" for localization, which means that in many cases we no longer need to pass around the `L10n`-instance any more.
One part of the code-base where the `L10n`-instance is still being used "directly" is the AnnotationEditors, however while it might be possible to convert (most of) that code as well that's not attempted in this patch.

[1] The one exception is the `PDFDocumentProperties` dialog, since the way it's currently implemented makes that less straightforward to fix without a lot of code changes.
*Please note:* These changes only affect the GENERIC build, since `NullL10n` is only a stub elsewhere (see PR 17135).
After the changes in PR 17115, which modernized and improved l10n-handling, the `NullL10n`-implementation is no longer a good fallback for the "proper" `L10n`-classes.
To improve this situation, especially for the *standalone* viewer-components, this patch makes the following changes:
- Let the `NullL10n`-implementation extend an actual `L10n`-class, which is constant and lazily initialized, to ensure that it works *exactly* like the "proper" ones.
- Automatically bundle the "en-US" l10n-strings in the build, via the pre-processor, such that we don't need to remember to manually update them.
- Ensure that the *standalone* viewer-components register their DOM-elements for translation, similar to the default viewer, since this will allow future code improvements by using "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" in most (if not all) parts of the viewer.
- Remove the `NullL10n` from the `AnnotationLayer`, to avoid affecting bundle size too much.
For third-party users that access the `AnnotationLayer`, as exposed in the main PDF.js library, they'll now need to *manually* register it for translation. (However, the *standalone* viewer-components still works given the point above.)
- 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.
Given that this is accessed multiple times per page in the viewer, that leads to a number of (strictly speaking unneeded) function calls and allocated Objects for each invocation. By converting `layerProperties` to a, lazily initialized, Object we can avoid this.
This fixes invalid type references (either due to invalid paths for the
import or missing imports) in the JS doc, as well as some missing or
invalid parameter names for @param annotations.
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).
This is something that I completely overlooked during review of PR 16593, since the idea is (obviously) that the viewer-components should be usable as-is without the user needing to manually pass in any *additional* parameters.
To support this we can very easily expose the current `FilterFactory`-instance on the `PDFPageProxy`-class[1], and if needed initialize the highlight-filters when initializing the page (again limited to the viewer-components).
- Modify the text and background colors in popup to fit a11y requirements
- Add a backdrop filter on clickable areas in using a svg filter mapping
canvas colors to Highlight and HighlightText ones.
While it's slightly difficult to trigger in practice, unless the `defaultZoomDelay`-value is increased, it's currently possible to generate thumbnails from *partially* rendered pages when doing *temporary* CSS-only zooming.
We shouldn't dispatch a "pagerendered"-event when doing *temporary* CSS-only zooming, but simply wait until the actual rendering is done.
While I don't believe that this regression has caused any actual bugs, dispatching *duplicate* events is nonetheless inconsistent and should be fixed.
Some arabic chars like \ufe94 could be searched in a pdf, hence it must be normalized
when creating the search query. So to avoid to duplicate the normalization code,
everything is moved in the find controller.
The previous code to normalize text was using NFKC but with a hardcoded map, hence it
has been replaced by the use of normalize("NFKC") (it helps to reduce the bundle size
by 30kb).
In playing with this \ufe94 char, I noticed that the bidi algorithm wasn't taking into
account some RTL unicode ranges, the generated font wasn't embedding the mapping this
char and the unicode ranges in the OS/2 table weren't up-to-date.
When normalized some chars can be replaced by several ones and it induced to have
some extra chars in the text layer. To avoid any regression, when copying some text
from the text layer, a copied string is normalized (NFKC) before being put in the
clipboard (it works like this in either Acrobat or Chrome).
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.
Currently if you e.g. enable the `useOnlyCssZoom` option rendering may no longer finish as intended. To reproduce:
- Enable the `useOnlyCssZoom` option.
- Load 1522715/wuppertal_2012.pdf (in the development viewer).
- When rendering starts, *immediately* change the zoom-level.
In this case the document will never finish rendering, since the `postponeDrawing`-functionality will (here incorrectly) abort rendering and with CSS-only zooming rendering is only expected to happen once per page.
To fix this we'll simply ignore any `drawingDelay` when CSS-only zooming is used (regardless if it's triggered via the option or the zoom-level being very large).
