NEW PDF.js with OpenJPEG decoder
Saw an update from the PDF.js Github group (https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/17946), and If I understood correctly, they have now implemented an OpenJPEG 2.5.2 decoder into PDF.js. Not sure about the details, but it looks like a promising update that should greatly improve rendering of JPEG2000 pdfs, which I find becoming very common and yet are currently many times slower to load in Zotero than the many times larger Jpeg based pdf files.
Any chance the Devs will look into incorporating this update into a Z7 Beta?
Thanks
