You work with Figma or FigJam every day, but opening and reading PDF files is a pain. You are not alone. I had the same issue during the last project I worked. What bothered me the most was the constant context switching and window fiddling between Figma and Preview or Adobe Acrobat Reader. My 4K monitor is big enough for two apps side by side but what I really wanted was to be immersed in Figma and FigJam full-screen mode. That’s the software I know, that’s the canvas I trust. It’s that simple, at least for me.
Call me peculiar, but I liked little the plugins out there. That’s why I’m building one and it’s called Super PDF. It’s free (as in beer), it’s super fast and it works in Figma and FigJam. Opening and reading (or viewing) a PDF file is as simple as running Super PDF, click on Reader tab and load your PDF file. That’s it. For real.

- Jump to the first or last page of the PDF by clicking and holding on the UI arrows.
- Hit the Left and Right or Up and Down keys, to flip through pages.
- Hit the Page Up and Page Down keys read through.
