Try Scansoft, er, Nuance's PaperPort software. It's not free or open source (haven't looked for one yet) but it shows thumbnails of a lot of formats including PDF:

I used it a while back to help get more organized and go paperless in the home office. uh it worked for a while but then the paper piled up faster than I could scan and shred it!
