Say I have various collections of magazines as pdf. The [Name] in MC is the same for all files in a collection, they differ by [Issue], [Date] and so on fields. Now...
1) As I understand that so far we can't retrieve the first page from pdf as the cover, let's just say I add the covers manually. The resulting cover file is named Data - [Name].jpg. So the problem here is that, just the same as with the covers for video content, the filename is not unique.
2) Well, being not unique there will be just one cover file per collection. I was expecting (unhappy but prepared) that all files will get the same cover. Surprisingly they did not. As I looked more into this, Documents don't get any cover automatically even if you have a Data - [Name].jpg next to the corresponding file (Quick find in File... does nothing for me). Maybe because they don't have an [Image] field in their default tags?
Can this situation be improved? I'm really not gonna go and add covers manually to each and every file I have. That's a few thousand mouse clicks too much...
