Is there a way to do it with this plugin?

@sp000n - No, this plugin is about making a cover page from an external image and the metadata - which must then be put into the book format files.
I don't think there are any PIs that extract data from format files, it's all done by the core product. If I were you I would search for something like "extract first image from PDF" - I suspect its doable with imagemagik or exiftool.
