PDF preview (endpoint : files/get_preview)

Hi  Why PDF format is not supported by the API call files/get_preview?  Whereas now in Dropbox App (chrome) we can see a small PDF previewer ...   Is it in the roadmap?   Thx :)

    Thanks for the post! I'm not aware of any plans to add PDF support to /2/files/get_preview right now, but I'm sending this along as a feature request.
