Export a PDF to images

The sample below converts a PDF file's pages to a list of JPEG images. Each image file name ends with "_\<unpadded_page_index_number>". For example, a PDF file with 15 pages will generate 15 image files. The first file's name ends with "_1" and the last file's name ends with "_15".

Please refer the API usage guide to understand how to use our APIs.
