[Typo3] a question about the content type

[Peter Klein]

Hi Vincent.
If you upload a PDF as an image, then the 1st page of the PDF file will be 
displayed as an image on the frontend.
But in order for that to work, need to install a couple external programs to 
process PDF (and AI) files.. Check the Install tool..
