Thanks a lot to both of you!

I forget to mention that I am developing an app for macOS. Sorry!

So, being totally new to handling PDFs in my code, I would use something like
  PDFDocument *pdfDoc = [[PDFDocument alloc] initWithURL:url];
then something like
  imagePDFrep = [NSPDFImageRep imageRepWithData: pdfDoc];
then something like 
  imageOfFirstPage = [ [NSImage init] addRepresentation: imagePDFrep];
?

Is that the general gist of it?


Best, G.
