PDFJS has a member variable numPages, so you'd just iterate through them.BUT it's important to remember that getting a page in pdf.js is asynchronous, so the order wouldn't be guaranteed. Current Document Only: Specifies whether the display is limited to a single PDF. Fill Screen With One Page At A Time: Sets the page view to the maximum screen coverage by a single page. Alert When Document Requests Full Screen: Displays a message before going into Full-Screen mode. Selecting this option overrides a previous selection of Do Not.

I use Google Docs embeddable PDF viewer. The docs don't have to be uploaded to Google Docs, but they do have to be available online.

instead of using iframe and depending on the
third party , think about using flexpaper, or pdf.js.
I used pdf.js, it works fine for me.
here is the demo: http://mozilla.github.com/pdf.js/web/viewer.html

The simplest way is to create an iframe and set the source to the URL of the PDF.
(ducks mad HTML designers) Done it myself, works fine, cross browser (crawls into bunker).

The browser's plugin controls those settings, so you can't force it. However, you can do a simple jschorrjschorr
<a href='whatver.pdf'> instead of <a href='whatever.pdf' target='_blank'> .

You can also embed using JavaScript through a third-party solution like PDFObject.

As long as you host the PDF the target attribute is the way to go. In other words, for relative files, using the target attribute with _blank value will work just fine.
For absolute paths engines will go to the Unified Resource Locator and open it their. So, suppress the target attribute.
Browsers will make a rely good job in both cases.

You can also have this simple GoogleDoc approach.
This would create a new page for you to view the doc without distorting your flow.

The simple solution is to put it in an iframe and hope that the user has a plug-in that supports it.
(I don't, the Acrobat plugin has been such a resource hog and source of instability that I make a point to remove it from any browser that it touches).
The complicated, but relative popular solution is to display it in a flash applet.

We render the PDF file pages as PNG files on the server using JPedal (a java library). That, combined with some javascript, gives us high control over visualization and navigation.

I'm not sure if all browsers display your embedded PDF (done via
<h:graphicImage value='some.pdf' .. /> ) equally well.
Extracting 1st Page as PDF
If you insist on using PDF, I'd recommend one of these 2 commandline tools to extract the first page of any PDF:
Both are available for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
pdftk commandGhostscript command
(On Windows use
gswin32c.exe or gswin64c.exe instead of gs .)
pdftk is slightly faster than Ghostscript when it comes to page extraction, but for a single page that difference is probably neglectable.Converting 1st Page to JPEG
If you want to be sure that even older browsers can display your 1st page well, then convert it to JPEG. Ghostscript is your friend here (ImageMagick cannot do it by itself, it needs the help of Ghostscript anyway):
Should you need page 33, you can do it like this:
If you need a range of PDFs, like pages 17-23, try this:
Note, that the
%03d notation increments with each page processed, starting with 1. So your first JPEG's name would be page-16+001-of-input-PDF.jpeg .
Maybe PNG is better?
Be aware that JPEG isn't a format suited well for images containing high black+white contrast and sharp edges like text pages. PNG is much better for this.
To create a PNG from the 1st PDF pages with Ghostscript is easy:
The analog options as with JPEGs are true when it comes to extract ranges of pages.

Warning: Don't use Ma9ic's script (posted in another answer) unless you want to..
Display Pdf In Html Page Without Toolbar
While it may work well for you there are so many problems in these 8 little lines of Bash.
First,
it uses identify to extract the number of pages from the input PDF. However, identify (part of ImageMagick) is completely unable to process PDFs all by itself. It has to run Ghostscript as a 'delegate' to handle PDF input. It would be much more efficient to use Ghostscript directly instead of running it indirectly, via ImageMagick.
Second,
it uses convert to PDF->JPEG conversion. Same remark as above: it uses Ghostscript anyway, so why not run it directly?
Third,
it loops over the pages and runs a different convert process for every single page of the PDF, that is 100 converts for a 100 page PDF file. That means: it also runs 100 Ghostscript commands to produce 100 JPEGs.
Fourth,
Fahim Parkar's question was to get a thumbnail from the first page of the PDF, not from all of them.
The script does run at least 201 different commands for a 100 page PDF, when it could all be done in just 1 command. If you Ghostscript directly..
Use the right tool for the job, and use it correctly!
Update:
Since I was asked, here is my alternative implementation to Ma9ic's script.
Html Display Pdf In Pages
I've even run a benchmark on it. I converted the 756-page PDF-1.7 specification to JPEGs with both scripts:
