PDFs that fail to render #1066

The following two PDFs just render garbage pixels; I believe the documents are just images pasted into a PDF document:

Hi, Thanks for reporting the issue. This is do to a currently unsupported image type of jpeg 2000. There is work in progress to support it.

Hey @limi, welcome to pdf.js!

Yeah, as with Firefox, pdf.js struggles with the question of how and whether to support JPEG2000 (which is difficult for both technical and legal reasons). We're tracking this here #268 and here #927. We're making progress, and I think Legal is already looking into it.

We're all excited to work with you guys on the new UX and FF integration. Let us know if we can be of further help.
