What
A Read of a PDF that arrives over a remote connection is now checked against that connection's size budgets, and one that exceeds them comes back as an explicit refusal with an explanation instead of an oversized payload.
Details
Budgets consulted are the per-read page cap, the whole-PDF raw byte limit and the image raw byte limit.
A refusal is returned as an invalid-request result rather than as file content.
Only applies when the read is served over a remote call; local reads are unchanged.
Evidence
Served whole-PDF read over the transport budget
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
