Is there a built-in feature or plugin that allows you to attach a document to a post or page such that the actual attachment file is one thing (eg a PDF) but the thumbnail images are another (eg a JPEG)? CLARIFICATION: the thumbnail does not need to be automatically generated (it could be a separate upload)
The use case here is a document library, where you have a little screenshot of what that document looks like but when you click the attachment, you can download the original document.

Good news for this old question, since WordPress 4.7, pdf’s thumbnail are automatically generated.
