Finally I found a way to create all my thumbnails for ai, eps, pdf (and more) formats, and it's freeware.

Check this out:

CocoThumbX is a freeware thumbnail creator for Mac OS X.
It is capable of creating and removing thumbnails from the common image file formats as BMP, TIFF, TARGA, GIF (animated), PNG, JPG, PICT, PDF, EPS, ICNS, JP2, SGI ... text files such as DOC, RTF, RTFD, HTML, CSS, TXT and QuickTime supported Movies.
CocoThumbX creates a thumbnail from your image and add the thumbnail as icon to your image file.

Works well with most files, but for illustrator files you need to create a crop area with the document to make it work somewhat. It's pretty cool that it creates a mini icon of the text documents. :)

I've been using this app forever, even before it looked cool. Works great.
