Existing users, 
This application does what it advertises and will very quickly produce jpgs suitable for web use or screen display. At the best quality setting the image for an 8.5 x 11 image is only 792 x 612. It could use an option for very high quality output more suitable for printing.
If you need a better quality jpg file for printing then use the Print to PDF/Send PDF to iPhoto method as it will produce an image 2200 x 1700 in size which will print up very well.

PDFDek -- try "Scale Factor" in the settings! - Upright Bassist
... GrapicConverter, ahem.I am not sure what happens to multiple pages, have not tried yet.
(About 2 minutes later:)
I just did, it stays a multipage document, only rasterized.
By default, ALL pages are saved (multi-page if possible, e.g. in TIFF); if unselected, then only the current.
PDFDek saves every page as a single picture file. I think that is what most users want, and is quicker to use and setup than GC. (Have not considered GC's batch mode, though.)

As I wrote in the title: try "Scale Factor" in the settings!Then you could set the quality incredibly high... ;)
Or open the PDF in GraphicConverter, it allows you to choose the dpi scaling beforehand, then you can/must save it to whatever needed.
HTH,
Felix
