+
+`@inkbar/core` opens PDFs, renders pages with PDF.js and keeps annotations as typed data. The Vue, React and Svelte packages build on it. You can also use it on its own: `createViewer` puts a complete viewer, with toolbar, note threads and redaction review, into any element in a plain TypeScript app.
+
+Every coordinate is stored in PDF user space (points, origin bottom-left, before `/Rotate`), so annotations stay put whatever the zoom, rotation or screen.
+
+- `@inkbar/core` holds the document model and annotation store. It is safe to import during server rendering.
+- `@inkbar/core/dom` renders pages, text layers and annotation layers into the DOM.
+- `@inkbar/core/vite` is a Vite plugin that serves the PDF.js assets.
+
+## Install
+
+```sh
+pnpm add @inkbar/core
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```ts
+import { openDocument } from '@inkbar/core'
+import { assets } from 'virtual:inkbar-assets' // from the Vite plugin, see below
+
+const doc = await openDocument(file, { assets })
+await doc.ready
+
+doc.annotations.add({ type: 'highlight', page: 0, quads })
+const json = doc.exportAnnotations('json')
+```
+
+`file` can be a `File`, `Blob`, `Uint8Array`, a URL string, or `{ url, key }` when the URL is signed and changes between loads. `quads` is a list of quads in PDF user space.
+
+Writing annotations back into the PDF needs `@inkbar/engine`, which is not released yet. Until then `save()` rejects with `EngineUnavailable`. Persist `exportAnnotations('json')` instead and re-import it on the next open.
+
+The DOM layer (`@inkbar/core/dom`) provides the viewport, canvas renderer, text layer, overlay and tools for hosts without a framework package. Vue hosts should use [`@inkbar/vue`](https://github.com/inkbar/inkbar/tree/main/packages/vue), React hosts [`@inkbar/react`](https://github.com/inkbar/inkbar/tree/main/packages/react), Svelte hosts [`@inkbar/svelte`](https://github.com/inkbar/inkbar/tree/main/packages/svelte).
+
+### Without a framework
+
+`createViewer` opens a document and renders a complete viewer into an element: a toolbar with tools, zoom and page controls, plus a note thread and a suggested-redaction card. It uses the same markup as the framework packages, so `@inkbar/theme` styles it.
+
+```ts
+import { createViewer } from '@inkbar/core/dom'
+import '@inkbar/theme/theme.css'
+
+const viewer = createViewer(el, { source: file, assets, zoom: 'fit-width' })
+
+const undo = document.createElement('button')
+undo.textContent = 'Undo'
+undo.onclick = () => viewer.document.get()?.history.undo()
+viewer.toolbar?.append(undo) // buttons join the toolbar's arrow-key order
+
+viewer.open(otherFile) // destroys the current document; the latest call wins
+viewer.open(lockedFile, { password }) // this password applies to this load only
+viewer.destroy()
+```
+
+It takes the [`mountViewer` options](#mounting-a-viewer) except `container` and `document`, plus `password`, `defaults`, `history`, `onReady` and `onError`. Set `toolbar`, `notes` or `suggestions` to `false` to leave that part out. `viewer.status`, `viewer.document` and `viewer.engine` are readables. A password you pass to `open` replaces the `createViewer` one for that load. An input, select or textarea you add keeps its arrow keys and its own `tabindex`: it is a Tab stop unless you give it `tabindex="-1"`.
+
+`createViewer` reads the theme's colours from the element you pass, so that element needs to be in the page when you call it.
+
+### Mounting a viewer
+
+`mountViewer` wires the viewport, page layers, tools and zoom and page keys onto a scroll container. You render the chrome around it.
+
+```ts
+import { mountViewer } from '@inkbar/core/dom'
+
+const engine = mountViewer({
+  container, // a focusable, scrollable element
+  document: doc,
+  zoom: 'fit-width',
+  onPageError: (page, error) => console.warn(page, error),
+})
+engine.tools.set('highlight')
+engine.rebuild({ gap: 32 }) // construction-only options; zoom, page, tool and scroll position carry over
+engine.destroy()
+```
+
+Options:
+
+- `container` and `document`, both required.
+- `zoom` (a number, `'fit-width'` or `'fit-page'`; default `'fit-width'`), `page`, `mode`, `rotation` and `tool` set the starting view. Change them later through `engine.viewport` and `engine.tools`.
+- `gap`, `buffer` and `customAnnotations` are fixed for a build. Change them with `engine.rebuild`.
+- `onActivate(id)` fires when the user activates an annotation.
+- `onBuild(viewport, tools)` fires after every build, the first one included, before `mountViewer` returns. Subscribe to the new viewport and tool controller here.
+- `onPageMount(page, mount, host)` and `onPageUnmount(page)` fire as pages enter and leave the mounted range.
+- `onPageError(page, error)` reports a page whose canvas or text layer failed, and `onPageError(page, null)` once every failed layer renders again. Unmounting a failed page emits no `null`, so clear any per-page error in `onPageUnmount`.
+
+The viewport mounts pages synchronously, so a build's page callbacks fire before its `onBuild`. During a rebuild, `engine.viewport` and `engine.tools` still point at the destroyed objects while those callbacks run. Read the arguments instead, or wait for `onBuild`.
+
+## Annotation changes
+
+`doc.annotations.on('change', fn)`, and `onChange(next, change)` in controlled mode, describe each mutation:
+
+- `{ kind: 'add', annotation }`
+- `{ kind: 'update', id, before, after }`
+- `{ kind: 'remove', annotation, removed }`. Removing a note also removes its replies, so `removed` lists everything that went: `annotation` first, then the replies. A host that syncs by change should delete every id in `removed`.
+- `{ kind: 'replace', reason }` for an import, a history step or a controlled sync. Read the whole list.
+
+`add` throws if `input.id` is already in the list. Locked annotations refuse changes to their geometry, `page` and `contents`.
+
+`doc.history.batch(fn)` records everything `fn` changes as one undo step, so a host that adds many annotations at once can undo them together. Change events still fire once per annotation. `fn` must be synchronous, and nested calls join the outer batch.
+
+## Tools and keyboard
+
+`createToolController` from `@inkbar/core/dom` routes pointer and key events on the viewport to the active tool: `view`, `select`, `highlight`, `redact-area` or `note`. Every tool works from the keyboard as well as the pointer.
+
+| Where focus is               | Key                                 | Effect                                                                                              |
+| ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Viewport, `highlight` tool   | `Enter`                             | Turns the text selection into a highlight                                                           |
+| Viewport, `redact-area` tool | `Enter`                             | Turns the text selection into text redactions                                                       |
+| Viewport, `note` tool        | `Enter`                             | Places a note at the centre of the current page and focuses it                                      |
+| Viewport                     | `+` or `=`, `-`                     | Zoom in, zoom out                                                                                   |
+| Viewport                     | `Home`, `End`, `PageUp`, `PageDown` | First, last, previous, next page                                                                    |
+| Annotation                   | `Enter` or `Space`                  | Selects and activates it                                                                            |
+| Annotation                   | `ArrowUp`, `ArrowDown`              | Previous or next annotation on the page, in reading order                                           |
+| Annotation                   | `Shift` + arrow                     | Moves it 1 pt (`Shift` + `Alt` + arrow: 10 pt)                                                      |
+| Annotation                   | `Ctrl` or `Cmd` + `Shift` + arrow   | Resizes an area redaction, text box or shape by 1 pt. Right and Down grow it, Left and Up shrink it |
+| Annotation                   | `Delete` or `Backspace`             | Removes it                                                                                          |
+| Annotation                   | `Escape`                            | Clears the selection                                                                                |
+
+The tool controller and the overlay handle the tool and annotation keys. The zoom and page keys (`+`, `=`, `-`, `Home`, `End`, `PageUp`, `PageDown`) come from `attachViewportKeys`, which the tool controller does not install. Attach it to the same container:
+
+```ts
+import { attachViewportKeys } from '@inkbar/core/dom'
+
+const detach = attachViewportKeys(container, {
+  viewport,
+  pageCount: () => doc.pages.length,
+})
+// later: detach()
+```
+
+On a focused annotation, `Enter` or `Space` selects it and calls `onActivate`; what activation opens is up to the host.
+
+Locked annotations, such as those embedded in the file, ignore move, resize and delete. Without a text selection, `Enter` in the `highlight` and `redact-area` tools does nothing.
+
+`redact-area` draws an area mark when you drag. To redact text instead, select the text with the `view` tool, switch to `redact-area`, then click inside the selection or press `Enter`. The tool keeps the press from starting a new text selection, so it cannot select text itself.
+
+With the `select` tool, a selected area redaction, text box or shape shows four corner handles (`.ink-handle[data-handle="nw|ne|sw|se"]`). Dragging one resizes it; the store records a single update on release. Drag the annotation itself to move it.
+
+## Serving PDF.js assets
+
+PDF.js needs a worker script plus directories of CMaps, standard fonts, wasm decoders and ICC profiles. Inkbar loads them from URLs you pass as the `assets` option. The option has no default, because the right URLs depend on how you deploy your app.
+
+### With Vite
+
+Add the plugin:
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts
+import { inkbar } from '@inkbar/core/vite'
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [inkbar()],
+})
+```
+
+Then import the URLs from the virtual module:
+
+```ts
+import { assets } from 'virtual:inkbar-assets'
+```
+
+In development the plugin serves the files from `node_modules`. In a build it copies them into `<outDir>/inkbar/`. The URLs respect your `base`. With a relative `base` such as `./`, the plugin resolves the URLs at runtime from the location of your bundle, so the build works from any path. Pass `inkbar({ assetsDir: 'pdf' })` to use a different directory name.
+
+For TypeScript, reference the module declaration once, for example in `env.d.ts`:
+
+```ts
+/// <reference types="@inkbar/core/vite/client" />
+```
+
+### Without Vite
+
+Copy these from the installed `pdfjs-dist` package to a path your server exposes:
+
+- `build/pdf.worker.min.mjs`
+- `cmaps/`
+- `standard_fonts/`
+- `wasm/`
+- `iccs/` (optional)
+
+Pass their URLs. Directory URLs end in `/`:
+
+```ts
+const assets = {
+  worker: '/pdfjs/pdf.worker.min.mjs',
+  cMaps: '/pdfjs/cmaps/',
+  standardFonts: '/pdfjs/standard_fonts/',
+  wasm: '/pdfjs/wasm/',
+  icc: '/pdfjs/iccs/',
+}
+```
+
+Use the `pdfjs-dist` version that `@inkbar/core` depends on, so the worker matches the library.
