Simply edit two lines in the "Image - Duplicate as PNG.scpt" (located in /Library -> Scripts -> Folder Action Scripts) to be able to convert screen captures and Illustrator 10 (PDF compatible) files to PNGs.
Change from:

property type_list : {"TIFF", "JPEG", "GIFf", "PICT"}
To:
property type_list : {"TIFF", "JPEG", "GIFf", "PICT", "PDF "}
And from:
property extension_list : {"tif", "tiff", "jpg", "jpeg", "gif", "pict", "pct"}
To:
property extension_list : {"tif", "tiff", "jpg", "jpeg", "gif", "pict", "pct", "pdf"}
I don't imagine this works very well for multipage PDFs ;) but for the above mentioned uses it works fine. This could be why it wasn't added to the original scripts. I haven't tried yet, but this will most likely work with the other image conversion Folder Action scripts. Note that the files created by Illustrator respect the page size, so if you get cropping or excess white space, check your page size settings.
Hope that you find it useful.
