When you have uploaded your PDF, it will look something like the image below.

To the left of the screen is a scrollable view of all the PDF pages. This scrollable view is only available on large PC screens: it will not be displayed on a laptop unless you decrease the screen display size.

In the center is the canvas, a full view of the PDF and where you will drag the Mergefields.

To the right of the screen are all the Mergefields and Settings to fully customise your PDF Contract.

Flows by Enreach will then replace each Mergefield with the Lead data of the Lead the PDF Contract is send to.
