Some PDF thumbnail creation notes:

If you run the importer, or simply add a PDF to your existing gallery, and you get a generic PDF icon, and you are sure you are using Imagick, then the issue could be Imagick security policies. Some installs deny (by default) PDF operations, so PDF image covers can't extracted. You have to allow it (by commenting out) the PDF line in the policy.xml file of Imagick. You may have to increase the allowed memory for a large PDF, but try the defaults first.
