Hi all.

I'm developing x11 protocol client in JavaScript+node.js and I'd like
to use pdf.js in a pdf viewer demo.

There are some html canvas api wrappers for node.js
(https://github.com/learnboost/node-canvas or
https://github.com/ajaxorg/node-o3-canvas)
Alternatively I'm thinking of implementing canvas wrapper using
server-side render/xgl and not use binary modules at all (and have
hardware acceleration).

What canvas api calls pdf.js uses? Any other uses of dom objects in
core renderer?

Thanks!

Andrey.
