Add ability to annotate PDFs

[hculp]

What is the proposed idea/solution?

Add PDF as supported file type for attachment annotations.

How does is solve the user problems?

This would allow more robust proofing & approval workflows than what Airtable currently allows. PDF is a standard format for this workflow and not being able to annotate drives users to seek external solutions or move to alternate platforms.

How was this validated?

This is a standard need, and the attachment annotations help page confirms that PDF is not a supported file type.

Who is the target audience?

Marketing & Creative teams, Sales teams, Legal teams/contract review, any other teams that need to be able to annotate PDFs vs. just images or videos.

YES this is so for any industry/team where documents are being stored and sent back and forth which is almost everyone. My specific use case is for project proposals
