Can You Navigate Through PDF Pages Right Inside the Card, Without Opening a New Tab?

Yes. In Jestor, the PDF viewer embedded in the form lets you flip through pages, zoom in, and use other reading tools without leaving the card or opening a new browser tab.

Why this improves the workflow

Before, viewing an attached PDF meant downloading the file or opening it in a new tab, losing the card's context. That's especially annoying for anyone checking proposals, contracts, or sales decks several times a day.

What the PDF viewer offers

Page navigation right inside the form screen
Zoom to read details without needing to download the file
Option to download the PDF, in case the user prefers to view it locally
Compatibility with the rest of the form's rules, like conditionals

How to set up the PDF viewer in Jestor

Edit the form and add the PDF block
Choose whether the PDF comes from a field (dynamic) or is fixed for all records
Decide whether the field allows editing or stays view-only
Save — the PDF becomes navigable right on the card

Process automation with fewer manual steps

By removing the need to download files just to check a proposal or contract, this feature cuts manual steps out of the sales and operations process in Jestor, keeping everything centralized on the same card.
