The library has been restructured from a monolithic build into a modular system where features are distributed as individual plugins in the \src/modules\ directory. This change introduces dedicated modules for core capabilities such as AcroForms (\acroform.js\), image handling (\addimage.js\, \bmp\_support.js\, \gif\_support.js\), HTML-to-PDF conversion (\html.js\), and a Canvas 2D API implementation (\context2d.js\). It also adds specialized modules for text layout (\cell.js\), annotations (\annotations.js\), and file loading with Node.js security controls (\fileloading.js\). Users will now interact with these features through a plugin-based API, allowing for more granular control over the library's footprint and functionality.

The repository has been initialized with a complete build and development infrastructure. This includes configuration for Babel (ES6+ transpilation), ESLint (TypeScript-aware linting), Prettier (code formatting), and Rollup (module bundling). Essential project metadata and documentation files have been added, such as the MIT License, Code of Conduct, Contribution Guidelines, and Security Policy. The setup also defines the project structure via \modules.conf.js\ and provides a CLI tool (\cli.js\) and web interface (\builder.html\) for customizing library builds by selecting specific modules and image support.

The source code has been reorganized from a single monolithic file into a modular structure. The main entry point (\src/index.js\) now imports and re-exports the core \jsPDF\ class along with individual feature modules (such as \acroform\, \addimage\, \html\, \context2d\, and various image format supports) from the \src/modules/\ directory. Additionally, core logic has been split into \src/jspdf.js\, while library utilities, polyfills, and license information are now housed in dedicated files (\src/libs/\, \src/polyfills.js\, \src/license.js\), improving maintainability and allowing for more granular imports.
