# Description of Changes This pull request upgrades the frontend PDF dependency from `@cantoo/pdf-lib` 2.6.5 to 2.8.2. - Updated `frontend/package.json` to require `@cantoo/pdf-lib` `^2.8.2`. - Regenerated `frontend/package-lock.json` with `@cantoo/pdf-lib@2.8.2`, `pako@2.2.0`, and `node-html-better-parser@1.5.9`. - Added the root npm `pako` override recommended by the upstream release. - The upgrade brings upstream parser, object-stream, encryption, form, PNG, and PDF serialization fixes into the frontend dependency. - No application API migration was required because the project does not use the newly added PDF/A, XFA, Factur-X, incremental-update, fontkit, or page-content-extraction APIs. The main challenge was validating the broad upstream change set against the project's actual usage. The frontend typecheck and a direct PDF create/save/load smoke test passed. The complete `frontend:check` and `frontend:test` tasks exceeded the available execution timeout without reporting a test failure. No related issue. --- ## Checklist ### General - [ ] I have read the [Contribution Guidelines](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) - [ ] I have read the [Stirling-PDF Developer Guide](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/DeveloperGuide.md) (if applicable) - [ ] I have read the [How to add new languages to Stirling-PDF](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/HowToAddNewLanguage.md) (if applicable) - [x] I have performed a self-review of my own code - [ ] My changes generate no new warnings ### Documentation - [ ] I have updated relevant docs on [Stirling-PDF's doc repo](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-Tools.github.io/blob/main/docs/) (if functionality has heavily changed) - [ ] I have read the section [Add New Translation Tags](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/HowToAddNewLanguage.md#add-new-translation-tags) (for new translation tags only) ### UI Changes (if applicable) - [ ] Screenshots or videos demonstrating the UI changes are attached (e.g., as comments or direct attachments in the PR) ### Testing (if applicable) - [x] I have tested my changes locally.
