Any File Explorer with support for thumbnails on PDF files?

Hi guys,

Do you know of any File Explorer app for android that is able to display thumbnails of PDF books whilst surfing those folders?

I've seen a few which support thumbnails for images and videos but I couldn't find any with PDF support.

Please let me know if you can think of any...

Cheers
 
I had not tried this one, but I'm seeing the same behaviour as with others, not support for PDF thumbnails. Have you seen that feature working in this one?

I am seeing something similar to the PDF logos on the top of the following image, but I'd like to see the PDF thumbnails instead (like displayed at the bottom of the image):

FX shows thumbnails for me, but smaller than the large thumbnails in your example. IDK of a file manager that does large thumbnails, but there might be one. Then again, maybe not, so as not to make the app sluggish.
 
Yes, small thumbnails should be fine, it's just to have an idea about the content without having to read the titles (or when titles don't fully fit, etc).

Do you remember if you had to change any setting to have them display? I can just see a 'thumbnails' setting that's enable and another 'thumbnails cloud' setting that is not available in the free version, but I can see thumbnails for images but PDF documents are all displaying the same PDF logo :S
