Alfresco Share document library does have the thumbnails and document preview feature.
Openoffice and Imagemagick has to be configured properly for the thumbnails to work.
Alfresco 3.4a comes bundled with all of it.

can we see our pdf and picture and other file in our space in thumnail or preview mode?

The solution located here worked to restore preview and thumbnails for me.
http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=35228

Note: When I installed the swftools the path was /usr/bin and not /usr/local/bin (used as img.root)
also I had to use /usr/bin/convert as img.exe in global properties not /usr/local/bin/convert

:!:
### External executable locations ###
ooo.exe=/opt/alfresco-3.4.a/openoffice/program/soffice.bin
#img.root=/opt/alfresco-3.4.a/common

img.root=/usr/bin
img.dyn=${img.root}/lib
#img.exe=${img.root}/bin/convert
img.exe=/usr/bin/convert
#swf.exe=/opt/alfresco-3.4.a/common/bin/pdf2swf
#jodconverter.enabled=true

swf.exe=/usr/bin/pdf2swf
#jodconverter.officeHome=/opt/alfresco-3.4.a/openoffice/program/soffice.bin
#jodconverter.portNumbers=8101

Hope this helps.
