npm install pdfjs@2.0.0

2.0.0 Breaking Changes

Version 2.0.0 is a re-write. The implementation is expected to settle with the current approach of streaming layouting with smart content chunking, which allows for having a small memory footprint even when creating a PDF document with thousands of pages.

2.0.0 requires Node >= 7. If you get an error on require('pdfjs') you are probably using an older Node.js version, which can be fixed by updating Node.js or by running pdfjs through a transpiler like babel.
