No.


You can export to PDF. Then open the PDF in Preview, and with thumbnails enabled, select each thumbnail, and then File menu : Export... — choosing your .png or jpeg output format for the specifically selected PDF page.


It is also possible with the optional installation of Ghostscript to process a single PDF into a sequential (by page number) color, or grayscale .png documents with a choice of resolution.

One can open the Pages document, and File menu : Print : PDF : Save PDF to Folder as JPG. However, this just does the conversion, and the output files are shoved into $TMPDIR as pdfname.jpeg, pdfname 2.jpeg, etc. You will have to launch Terminal, and type: cd $TMPDIR. Then ls *.jpeg. You can then do open pdfname.jpeg and Preview will open the file.
