Once the patch to imageapi_imagemagick module at
http://drupal.org/node/269329 
is reviewed and committed, the work done on incorporating imagecache
into D7 means that D7 will have the ability to convert the first page of
a PDF document to an image format. Perhaps it would be possible to
modify imageapi_imagemagick to produce multiple pages - but I don't know
how that would link up with the new image system in core.
