[Automator] Render PDF Pages as Images problem
Hi,
I'm using an Automator Action called "Render PDF Pages as Images". It is not working properly. I've also tried one called "Change Types if Images" with the same results. The problem is both of these actions will create an image, but they won't put it anywhere other than a temp directory. With the second action, if I do it on an image file like a jpg, it will convert the image and put it in the directory the file exist in. I have a bunch of PDFs that are really just scanned images that I need to convert to TIFF and I want to automate it. It is frustrating that the actions are not working as documented. Both are supposed to render the change on the existing file in the location it exists and neither is work that way when run against a PDF.
Any help would be appreciated.
