UPDATE: I resolved the problem this afternoon.  The solution is to 
install the JAI ImageIO library in the JDK itself.  In my case I do not 
have permissions to update the system's JDK so I installed my own JDK 
and then installed the ImageIO library there.  I rebuilt DSpace using my 
own JDK and verified that media filtering can now produce thumbnail 
images for a PDF file.
