Comment (by helen):

 Replying to [comment:10 folletto]:

 I like "Document preview" quite a bit, agree that using "document" helps
 understand that it's a different kind of file. "Document cover preview" is
 slightly unwieldy and in PDFs a cover page is an actual separate concept,
 which is probably not widely known but may be confusing to somebody who is
 uploading PDFs to WP.

 Per @johnbillion's comment, there could also be a "View full PDF" link or
 some such underneath instead (or in addition?), although between having a
 URL field already and perhaps needing to open it in a new window, it may
 not end up making sense at the moment. Thoughts?
