Fixes #3109.

Text drawn with rendering mode 7 (7 Tr, clipping without filling or stroking) was invisible to text extraction, Find, word count, and search-redaction, even though it renders on the page. In show_glyph, the Clip arm called only clip_glyph and never reported the glyph to the text device.

The fix reports the glyph with GlyphDrawMode::Invisible after clipping — the same pattern the Invisible (mode 3) arm uses: the text becomes extractable without painting anything. Type 3 fonts are unaffected (the existing override maps non-invisible modes to Fill for Type 3). The vendored patch is marked per vendor/README.md policy.

Tests:

• text::tests::clipping_only_text_is_extracted — extracts "Hello World" in modes 0/3/4/5/6/7 (failed before: 7 Tr extracted "").
• raster::tests::clipping_only_text_paints_nothing_but_still_clips — pixel test: 7 Tr text paints nothing alone, and the clip still shapes later painting.
• cargo test -p pdfcraft-render --lib: 302 passed, 0 failed. Clippy and cargo fmt --check clean.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Clipping-only text remains invisible while shaping the clip used by subsequent painted content, preventing text from appearing unexpectedly.
  • Clipping-only text is available for text extraction and search, including when filtering for images. Invisible text remains excluded from filtered extraction.
  • Text rendering modes now preserve the distinction between invisible text and text that shapes a clipping region.

The description explains the issue, fix, affected behavior, regression tests, and validation results. It does not reproduce the repository checklist sections, but the relevant implementation and verification details are present.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #3109 requires rendering mode 7 text to reach extraction, Find, word count, and search-redaction without painting. In show_glyph, the Clip arm clips the glyph and reports it with GlyphDrawMode::Clip. The current tests cover extraction and searchability for mode 7, including filtered extraction. The raster test verifies that mode 7 paints nothing and still clips later painting. The existing Type 3 override remains in place.

Explanation

The current change set is limited to the mode-7 glyph-device reporting path, the related GlyphDrawMode::Clip and renderer handling, focused text and raster regression tests, and vendor patch documentation. These changes support issue #3109. No unrelated change is shown in the supplied whole-PR summary.

Reviewed and built on Windows 11. The fix is correct. One documentation gap below, and a duplicate to settle.

Behaviour. On a page with 7 Tr text filled through its clip plus a 3 Tr line, pdftotext extracts both (Clip Title, OCR layer). main (d8b2705) only extracts OCR layer. This head extracts both, matching pdftotext.

Tests fail without the fix. All 3 new tests pass on this head. I tried two reverts:

• dropping the new draw_glyph call fails clipping_only_text_is_extracted and clipping_only_text_survives_image_filter;
• reporting the glyph as GlyphDrawMode::Invisible instead of the new Clip fails clipping_only_text_survives_image_filter.

The raster test guards the other direction (nothing is painted) and is unaffected by either revert, as expected.

The new variant is safe. Every Device in the workspace either forwards the mode (the pattern and Type 3 wrappers in hayro-interpret) or ignores it (the test devices in raster.rs, DummyDevice). hayro's renderer matches exhaustively and now treats Clip like Invisible, so the compiler would flag any future device that forgets it. Type 3 text in 7 Tr is still drawn as a fill by the existing override, as ISO 32000 §9.3.6 says only mode 3 affects Type 3 glyphs; this PR doesn't change that.

Gap: vendor patch documentation. This adds two vendored patches (GlyphDrawMode::Clip in hayro-interpret, and its arm in hayro's renderer) but doesn't touch vendor/README.md. Each vendored change is supposed to be listed there with its covering test.

Duplicate. #3116 (jonathanwxh-cell) fixes the same issue, #3109, with the same show_glyph call but reports the glyph as Invisible. That shape drops clip-only titles whenever the image/OCR filter is on (word count, exclude-image text). The second revert above is exactly that shape, and it fails this PR's filter test. So I think this PR's distinct mode is the better of the two; the maintainers can decide which to take.

[SENESO]

Thanks for the review. Addressed the vendor-documentation gap in 525424b: vendor/README.md now lists both GlyphDrawMode::Clip patches (hayro-interpret and hayro's renderer), with the actual extraction, image-filtering, and raster-clipping regression tests.

I also removed the unrelated optional contributor entry and fixed the formatting of the existing filtered-extraction assertions (95b4ef0). Validation: cargo fmt --check and cargo test -p pdfcraft-render clipping_only_text -- --nocapture pass (3 tests).

The Clip behavior is unchanged: extraction keeps mode-7 text even with the image/OCR filter, while the renderer preserves clipping without painting the glyphs. I leave the choice between this PR and #3116 to the maintainers.

AI assistance: Cue assisted with these changes and this reply.

[mtlcl410]

Thanks @SENESO. Confirmed at 23fa14c2: the vendor/README.md addition documents the GlyphDrawMode::Clip change in hayro-interpret, and in the same entry the hayro renderer drawing nothing for that mode. That covers what I asked for. As noted earlier, #3116 changes the same code for the same issue (#3109), so the maintainers will want to pick one of the two.
