* Annotations (text, highlights) as well as comments. These are saved automatically.
* Forms can be filled.
* Can be printed or downloaded.

Since v0.102.0 it's possible to annotate PDFs. To do so, look for the annotation buttons on the right side of the PDF toolbar (<img src="1_PDFs_image.png" width="120" height="32">).

* Comments can also be added, which is similar to highlights but also attach a text.

* Some information such as the name and size of the attachment are displayed.
