How to Convert Multiple Page PDF to Separate Images

When I do the show notes for the Tuesday nights, I want to give the .pdf away as a follow-along. Then I thought. Hey, let's make it a blog post too. I needed the .pdf's to be images for the blog post. If the .pdf is several pages, saving each page would be terribly time consuming so I found this way to automate it. yay
multi-page pdf
Watch me learn to create a Photoshp CS6 action (I expect it works the same in later versions too. If you try it, let me know). The action will automate creating separate JPEG/JPG images from a multiple page pdf document. Here are the instructions that I was following that I got from here: graphicdesign.stackexchange.co...
CREATE YOUR OWN PHOTOSHOP ACTION
Open up a sample image (or the first image of your PDF)
Bring up your "Actions" menu
Create a new action. Name it "Save to JPG"
Save your sample image, as a JPG in a certain folder.
Close your image.
Stop recording the action.
en up your multiple page PDF file (you select which pages to open; each page will open as its own image)
File, Automate, Batch
Under "Action" your "Save to JPG" action should be there, select it.
As your source, select "Opened Files"
Set your destination folder
Press OK.
This should save all open files as JPGs and then close the files. (for better performance I would suggest doing 25-50 pages at a time instead of all 150)

Thank you! I have been trying to find this everywhere. All the vids seem to want to do the opposite: take multiple images and turn them into a single PDF. Yay for you!
