Description -see any Thumbnails for PDFs when you upload as Documents 

Why is this feature important to you -

all of our Print output will require a PDF for approval, so having the thumbnails and previews available is imperative for our processes.

 

How would you like the feature to work -

By default, PDF is a supported file type for proofing so when you create a proof from PDF files, it will show a preview thumbnail. But you won't see a thumbnail for PDF files within the document lists/ Preview

Thumbnails are show for for png, jpeg etc, but not PDF when you upload as Documents to Workfront

uploading a PDF as a “Document” by default doesn’t generate any in-browser preview. 

 

Current Behaviour -

If you choose “Document Only” when uploading, Workfront just stores the file—no interactive viewer is generated
