PDF not rendering

[halleck1]

Hello everyone,

We have a case of PDF which does not seem to render correctly, the JPEG stream seems to be embedded and does not resolve correctly. (The link to the PDF file was deleted)

Please let me know once you've had a chance to download it - I'll need to remove it.

I can reproduce this with the latest version of PDF.js. There are no warnings/errors in the console. @halleck1 Could you prepare the same type of PDF but with dummy data so we can keep it up here such that other developers can look at it?

Unfortunately we're not the authors of the PDF, it's coming from third party so I wouldn't know how to create such a PDF. When I try to blank out the sensitive bits and re-save it e.g. via Adobe Illustrator the new file renders OK. I'd probably rather wait till you guys all have the copy and then delete it.

I have made a minimal testcase that removes the sensitive data and still does not render with PDF.js:

Perfect! I'm removing my original file now. Thanks!

Hello guys, is there any chance someone could have a look at this issue? We're seeing more of these files coming through...

Alternatively, if you could give us even the basic diagnosis of what's happening wrong there we could potentially have a look at it ourselves. We tried to understand what's breaking down but the PDF standard details are not easy to digest.

The infinite rendering is fixed by #4969, but the images are still missing. We now also have some more console output for these problematic files.

Thanks a lot, we'll try this version and will revert.

I can confirm that the text now renders correctly, still no images though. Thanks a lot!

I can confirm the issue is fixed. Thanks a lot!
