    $reportdetail ='            
        <div class="col-lg-4 col-md-4 col-sm-12">  
            <div class="large-5 column">
                <div class="xzoom-container">

                                        <a href="" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#Summary"> Summary </a> </li>
                                    <li>
                                        <a href="buy-report.php?id='.$row['id'].'"> Buy Now </a>
                                    </li>
                                </ul>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                        <div class="sku-code">
                            <span class="posted_in">Categary: '.$row['category'].'</span>

                </div>
            </div>
        </div>

        <div id="Summary" class="modal fade" role="dialog">
            <div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">
                <div class="modal-content">

                        <h4 style="display: contents;">Summary of '.$row['name'].'</h4>
                        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
                    </div>
                    <div class="modal-body">
                        <embed src="report/'.$row['report'].'" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="400px">
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>    
        </div>
    ';
}else{
    $reportdetail = 'Something Went Wrong';
}

return $reportdetail;
}

Why not create 2 versions of the PDF? One full version and one preview version? It isn't possible to restrict what to show on the client side, if you send me the full PDF I can see the full PDF — rypskar, Feb 12 '19 at 06:55

If you have the ImageMagick library installed in your PHP, you can convert a specific page to jpg.

$im = new Imagick();

$im->setResolution(300,300);
// the [0] below indicates the first page only.
$im->readImage('document.pdf[0]'); 
$im->setImageFormat('jpeg');    
$im->writeImage('thumb.jpg'); 
$im->clear(); 
$im->destroy();

You'd probably want to do this for the two pages you wanted to use as a preview.

See also the ImageMagick::readImage documents. The documentation itself isn't great, but the user comments are pretty good. You should be able to $im->setImageFormat('pdf'); as well.

I stole this from Convert PDF to JPEG with PHP and ImageMagick

I would go with FPDI from setasign.

It is simple to use and easy to install. I currently use it in one of my application and it works very good.
