Regression from 4.2.0 to 5.2.0 in loading pdf from ArrayBuffer?

See original GitHub issue

Before you start - checklist

[*] I followed instructions in documentation written for my React-PDF version
[*] I have checked if this bug is not already reported
[*] I have checked if an issue is not listed in Known issues
[*] If I have a problem with PDF rendering, I checked if my PDF renders properly in Mozilla Firefox

Description

Short description of the bug you encountered.

Updating the version from 4.2.0 to 5.2.0 broke my code, but I couldn’t find anything about a breaking change in the doc.

Steps to reproduce

get the pdf file content as content
return <Document file={Buffer.from(content, 'binary').buffer}><pageNumber={1} /></Document>
Try with v4.2.0 -> works
Try with v5.2.0 -> failed to load pdf file

If it’s necessary I can try to create a project to reproduce

Expected behavior

What you expected to happen?

Should show the pdf in the last version

@wojtekmaj I’ve just tried with 5.1.0 and 5.0.0 to no avail. I’ll try to create a repro. I’m just not sure if I can do it this week. Thanks a lot 😉

Actually, I was using a non-matching version of pdf.worker.js. I’m still not sure on how and why. But using the mentioned import for webpack users quickly solved the issue:
