7. Using ImageEngine
7.6. Render Pages
The Render Pages function uses the render method of the Adobe Acrobat application to render views of the pages of the source PDF document as images. The images are saved either as Macintosh Pictures or in the corresponding format when using one of the QuickTime Image Exporters of Mac OS.
To apply the Render Pages function to the front document of Adobe Acrobat, choose the menu "ImageEngine" > "Render Pages
".
Now the document dialog appears, allowing the user to adjust whether the function is to be applied to the entire document or to a range of coherent pages. There is also a button available to change the settings of the Render Pages function.

To cancel the Render Pages function, press the "Cancel" button.
To start the Render Pages function with the desired document, press the "Render Pages
" button.
To apply the Render Pages function to a PDF document, stored as a file, choose the menu "ImageEngine" > "Render Pages from File
". An Open dialog appears, which allows to select the desired PDF file. Using the cancel button of the Open dialog cancels the Render Pages function.
Since the "Render Pages from File
" function can only be applied to the entire document no document dialog appears.
Note: Since the Render Pages function does not depend on the security settings of the source PDF document, there does not appear a password dialog for this function.
Further sequences depend on the settings for "Auto Save".
With "Auto Save" off, ImageEngine shows a Save dialog to let the user select where to save the file(s) generated.
With "Auto Save" on the file(s) are saved automatically in a newly created folder in the Auto Save destination folder.
Note: The sub folder will only be created if ImageEngine could create at least one file.
ImageEngine now shows a progress window. The function may be cancelled by pressing the key combination "Cmd" + "." or the "esc" key. In this case, all images, which were already created, remain in the destination folder.

The result of the Render Pages function is a sub folder inside the destination folder, filled with the generated image files.
