pdf contents display under windows

[Cortical]

have a directory of scanned documents as multi-page pdf's. This is a patient records solution (referrals, letters...)

Need to add these into the database and display the contents of the pdf, as a review mechanism. A pdf is inserted into container field

Insert file on the mac, displays the content (first page), but does not display content on windows.

The individual pdfs once inserted, can be exported, ideally they should be capable of being printed directly from the db.

Short of building a path variable from the insert file process, then parallel a insert as picture routine into a 'thumbnail/preview' field of the same file for every insert, is there any other means to achieve a contents display for a pdf under windows?
