Hi Nicolas, in case you're still looking for a solution for this, I managed to tweak the code from version 1.0.1 to be able to display pdf thumbnail in fancyboxthumb correctly (alongside with other types)
if ( !defined( 'MEDIAWIKI' ) )
die( 'This is a MediaWiki extension, and must be run from within MediaWiki.' );
//Register Credits
$wgExtensionCredits['other'][] = array(
'name' => 'FancyBoxThumbs',
'url' => 'http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:FancyBoxThumbs',
'author' => '[http://www.gilluminate.com Jason Gill]',
'description' => 'Displays thumbnailed images in a Mac-style "lightbox" that floats overtop of web page. A simple and fancy lightbox alternative',
'version' => '1.0.1'
);
$wgHooks['BeforePageDisplay'][] = 'efBeforePageDisplay';
function efBeforePageDisplay($out)
{
global $wgScriptPath, $wgTitle, $wgRequest;
// Don't load if in the Special namespace (to prevent clobbering Semantic Forms or other extensions that load jQuery).
// Also don't load if we're doing any sort of action on the page.
$action = $wgRequest->getVal("action");
if($wgTitle->getNsText() != "Special" && $action != "formedit")
{
$FBT_Dir = '/extensions/FancyBoxThumbs/fancybox';
//Only load jQuery if for some reason it's not present
$out->addScript('<script type="text/javascript">var jQueryScriptOutputted = false;function initJQuery() {if (typeof(jQuery) == "undefined") {if (! jQueryScriptOutputted) {jQueryScriptOutputted = true;document.write(\'<scr\'+\'ipt type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js"></scr\'+\'ipt>\');}setTimeout("initJQuery()", 50);}}initJQuery();</script>');
$out->addScriptFile($wgScriptPath.$FBT_Dir.'/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.js');
$out->addScript('<link rel="stylesheet" href="'.$wgScriptPath.''.$FBT_Dir.'/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css" type="text/css" />');
##uses jquery to rewrite the href, rather than traditional php methods that can break the CMS nature of WikiMedia
$out->addScript('<script type="text/javascript">'
