(Keywords: regression)

[Affected versions]:
- Nightly 60.0a1
- Beta 59.0b8
- Firefox 58.0.1

[Affected platforms]:
- Windows 10 x64
- Ubuntu 16.04 x64
- macOS 10.13.

[Steps to reproduce]:
1. Open a pdf in Firefox (e.g. http://www.pdf995.com/samples/pdf.pdf)
2. Open "Find Toolbar" (Ctrl/Cmd + F)
3. Search for a word (e.g. pdf). To notice the issue better activate "Highlight All".
4. Close the Find Toolbar and click on the page. 

[Expected result]:
- The highlights disappear. 

[Actual result]:
- The words still remain highlighted until the page is refresh.

[Regression range]:
- last good build: 2012-10-17
- first bad build: 2012-10-18

These versions of Nightly are very old and mozregression couldn't find a pushlog. 

[Additional notes]:
- If the browser is restarted (Shift+F2 and write "restart" in the Developer Toolbar), the issue is not reproducing anymore.
Mike, could you give this a priority? Thanks.

This is a PDF.js issue, so I'm redirecting to that component, if you don't mind!
