Automator Render PDF Pages as Images 600 dpi

I am trying to convert a PDF to images using Automator. When I use "Render PDF Pages as Images" and set "resolution" value to 600, it says "Maximum exceeded." it looks like the maximum resolution is set to 400 dpi.

Is there a way to convert pdf to images using Automator but with resolution of 600 dpi? Perhaps, instead of "Render PDF Pages as Images,"but using apple script?

I don't have Ventura in front of me as I am remote right now, but on macOS Monterey 12.6.1, I have no issue generating 600 dpi jpeg images using the following workflow:



I am filtering on kind: PDF, moving the rendered content from its /var… location to my Desktop where I then rename each image with an _00n.jpeg sequence. You may want to choose another folder location than Desktop to receive those sequence images. I confirmed that the image generated from a single page test PDF was 600 dpi in Preview.
