PDFBackgroundTask (Big Faceless PDF Library 2.28.7)

All Known Implementing Classes:

BackgroundSignatureVerifier, BackgroundTextExtractor, ThumbnailPanel.ThumbnailSidePanel
```
public interface PDFBackgroundTask
```
This interface should be implemented by any features in the Viewer that run in a background thread. These features need to be paused when an exclusive lock on the whole PDF is required, such as when the PDF is saved. An example of one of these objects is the SidePanel returned from ThumbnailPanel

Since:

2.11.7
