I'd highly recommend <a href="http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/ ">phpthumb</a> for this task. It handles caching and is super simple to setup; just copy to your server and pass images thru it.

This would turn your cover page in the PDF to a 500px wide JPG:

Code:
<img src="phpthumb_path/phpthumb.php?src=test.pdf&amp;w=500">
