QtWebKit does not support file:-URLs in Web Workers.
To solve this issue, I'm loading file:-URLs in the main thread
for generic builds. file:-URLs load relatively quick, so there
is no need for sophisticated load progress notifications.
cid chars are 16-bit unsigned integers. Currently we convert them to
single-char strings when inserting them into the CMap, and then convert
them back to integers when extracting them from the CMap. This patch
changes CMap so that cid chars stay in integer format throughout, saving
both time and space.
When loading the PDF from issue #4580, this change reduces peak RSS from
~600 to ~370 MiB. It also improves overall speed on that PDF by ~26%,
going from 724 ms to 533 ms.
PR 4259 fixed a large number of font bugs, but none of those where added as test-cases. This was, in my opinion, unfortunate since it increases the risk of regressions in the future when other font bugs are fixed.
This PR simply adds a few more test-cases, to improve our test coverage somewhat.
document.documentElement.style is null in some XML documents.
The previous snippet caused the following error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot use 'in' operator to search for 'animation' in null
To fix this bug, `'animation' in document.documentElement.style` has been
replaced with `CSS.supports('animation', '9s')`. This method was introduced
in Chromium 28, but it is not necessary to detect whether this method is
supported because the required createShadowRoot method for embeds is not
available in Chromium 32 and earlier.
This change avoids the element stringification caused by for..in for the
vast majority of CMaps.
When loading the PDF from issue #4580, this change reduces peak RSS from ~650
to ~600 MiB, and improves overall speed by ~20%, from 902 ms to 713 ms. Other
CMap-heavy documents will also see improvements.
This lets the JS engine resize the array elements buffer immediately,
thus avoiding some intermediate resizings. This can save multiple MiBs
of reallocation in text-heavy files.
If a user downgrades from Chromium 35+ to 34, then the PDF Viewer
extension will not work any more because the extension assumes
that certain features were available based on the cached feature
detection results.
To resolve this problem, all feature detection scripts run again
if the browser was downgraded.
In b5b94a4af3, i.e. PR #4259, we stopped using cidmaps.js. Despite that, it's still included when PDF.js is built. At almost 0.5 MB (and approx. 7000 lines), this is currently the single largest file in the codebase.
Including such a large file in the builds, when it is not actually used, seems extremely wasteful; hence this patch.
