Questions about the file viewers

Can I edit PDF, Word, or Excel files?

No. The viewers are read-only by design, so you can check a file without risking changes to it.

Do the viewers upload my files anywhere?

No. The viewers render each file inside your editor.

Can I sort a CSV?

Yes. Click a column header to sort. Numbers sort as numbers, and sorting only changes the view, not the file.
