Hey guys, I'm trying out the trial version to make sure it will do everything we need it to. One of the things we need to be able to do is rasterize the PDF. Optimal would be rendering the entire document as a single image, but if we could get each page rendered, we could go from there.
I see where the Result object has a field for the PageImages when converting from html to pdf, so we're good there. However, it isn't clear to me how to grab an arbitrary PDF file and get the same list of images.
Is this possible to do?

Hi,
No. You can not do that. In order to rasterize a PDF file you will need a PDF render. That's no small cake (think about Adobe Reader, pretty much all it does is to render PDF file and it's a 100M+ download). We only have a HTML render. So we can render HTML to anything --- either to images or to PDF. But we do not have a PDF render.
Thanks!

Ok, that's not optimal, but I can work around it.
