Absolutely, Yes, you can make a PDF display its actual cover page (thumbnail/preview) instead of just a generic PDF icon, but it depends on what you mean by cover:

  1. Inside the PDF (first page as cover)

When you open a PDF in Systweak PDF Editor (or any reader), the first page is normally the cover page.

To set or change it, just make sure the page you want as cover is the first page in the document. You can rearrange pages in Systweak PDF Editor using the Organize Pages tool.

  1. Outside the PDF (icon preview in Explorer/Finder)

In Windows File Explorer or Mac Finder, PDFs usually show an icon. If you want them to show the actual first page preview:

Windows:

Install a PDF handler (like Systweak PDF Editor, Adobe Acrobat) that enables thumbnail previews.

Make sure in File Explorer → View → Options → Always show icons, never thumbnails is unchecked.

Mac: Finder already shows PDF page previews by default.

  1. Embedding a custom cover (metadata/preview image)

Some PDF tools let you embed a cover image (not just page one) in the metadata so apps (like e-readers or cloud drives) show it.

In Systweak PDF Editor, you can replace page one with your custom-designed cover page, which effectively becomes the displayed cover everywhere.

How you copy the document acrobat reader to ms Excel sheet?

You do not, unless you have Acrobat or some other software that can edit PDF files. An acrobat PDF file is basically a picture of the document. If you can edit the file, sometimes you can SaveAs, but if all you have is a PDF file and MS Excel, you will not be able to convert to a worksheet. You can, however, import as an object into Excel and display the page in a worksheet. This will be the same as importing an image; you can display the image, but you will not be able to edit the contents.
