Hi Manju, 
 
AFAIK This is not supported by Appian as of now. Let's see what other folks will say.

Yes you are right. This is a very advanced integration and not in appian as of now. It might take a few updates for appian to reach there. For time being if you have encountered a situation where a user has to fill the pdf,here is my suggestion: Create a document download link with the empty pdf file and create another upload field. User has to download fill it and upload it back again. 
Thanks, 
Yeswanth.

Hi Manju N, 
 
 AFAIK This feature is not available in appian, But in 18.3 Release, They have released a new function a!documentViewerField(), so 
 that you can directly display your PDF or word document in interface and you can scroll them.
