Parameters

Name	Type	Description
fileName	String	A String which specifies the file name (including the full path) for the created Tiff image.
largestEdgeLength	Int32	An integer value, specifying the length of the image’s largest dimension, in pixels.

            int[] pageNumbers = new int[] { 1, 3, 5 };

            // Create a PDF Document Processor.
            using (PdfDocumentProcessor processor = new PdfDocumentProcessor())
            {
                // Load a document. 
                processor.LoadDocument("..\\..\\Document.pdf");

                // Export pages to a multi-page tiff image.
                processor.CreateTiff("..\\..\\Image.tiff", largestEdgeLength, pageNumbers);

            Dim pageNumbers As Integer() = New Integer() {1, 3, 5}

            Using processor As PdfDocumentProcessor = New PdfDocumentProcessor()
                processor.LoadDocument("..\..\Document.pdf")
                processor.CreateTiff("..\..\Image.tiff", largestEdgeLength, pageNumbers)
