Without this information the issue will be closed as INVALID, since there's unfortunately no actionable information provided here.

PDF.js version: latest

You need to provide the actual version number when reporting an issue, since "latest" can mean any number of things (e.g. current master version, current beta/release version) and is also of no use in e.g. a weeks time.

Error: Warning: name token is longer than allowed by the spec: 134

Also, as can be seen in the code this isn't a breaking error but rather just a warning:

pdf.js/src/core/parser.js

Lines 1006 to 1008 in d0892e4

	if (strBuf.length > 127) {
	warn(`Name token is longer than allowed by the spec: ${strBuf.length}`);
	}

That was changed in PR #6193, almost four years ago, which suggests that the "PDF.js version: latest" claim above wasn't even remotely correct...

I have the above code in my parser.js. I am getting error from pdf.worker.js.
Also some pages of pdf are getting blank on load.

Did you actually read all of #10871 (comment), since it mentions that you're using a several years out-of-date version of the PDF.js library?

You'll need to update to the latest version, as found at https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/releases, and this issue will be resolved. Keep in mind that only the latest version is officially supported.

Closing because of the reasons above and the fact that without a PDF file it will not be possible to look into this.
