Comment (by dglingren):

 @markoheijnen,

 I am the Media Library Assistant author and I'd be happy to help you in
 any way I can. MLA supports image generation in two ways:

 1. The [mla_gallery] shortcode has an mla_viewer parameter that generates
 images for its gallery display.
 2. The Media/Assistant admin submenu has a "Thumbnail" bulk action that
 will generate images for PDF documents and add them to the Media Library
 as separate items. Then, for example, the new items can be used as the
 Featured Image for the document to avoid generating the image each time it
 is displayed in an [mla_gallery] output.

 These options are described in the "Thumbnail Substitution Support,
 mla_viewer" section of the Settings/Media Library Assistant Documentation
 tab. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help!
