" Clean and easy to use . Perfect for quickly converting images without unnecessary extras."

"Wonderfully simple app! I struggled with converting my images from one format to another constantly with online free tools. Picmal makes it effortless . Worth the money to avoid the hassle for sure!"
"You did a great job here! I like how easy Picmal is to use , and the frequent upgrades show that you are very committed to improving this beautiful software."
"It's a Mac-assed Mac App. Focused, customizable, flexible, well designed and super fast. 10+ times a day I need to convert a file for use on a website. Picmal makes that process a joy . My favorite conversion is taking a multipage PDF and converting each page to an individual image with one click (something even Preview can't do). "
"I f* love this app . Just so you know. Keep building!"
"I like the interface. I like the batch processing . I like the fact in the I can set default conversions. I like your program a lot."

"It's simple to use and does everything I need it to do . Hell, it does much more than I need and the developer keeps adding features :) "
" I love the app! I use it 4-5 days a week for audio and image conversion as I tag and add missing album artwork to my library of 70,000 songs. After that is done, I would like to try it out with my Blu-ray collection on Plex. I truly appreciate the hard work that goes into creating and frequently updating an app such as this. All the best!"
"The program is very simple and practical , and its options are clear."
"I use Picmal to convert images. It works perfectly . I can just leave the Picmal window open on my desktop. Whenever I want to convert an image, I drag the file onto the window and click “convert”—and seconds later, the converted file is in the appropriate folder with the suffix “converted.” It couldn’t be easier or more hassle-free!"
" Thoughtful, polished, and constantly improving . Alberto genuinely listens to feedback, and it shows in Picmal. Easy 5 stars."

Drop the PDF into Picmal, choose how to split it, either by page ranges or one file per page, and click Split. Picmal writes out the new PDFs right there. It all runs on your Mac. A lot of people try to do this in Preview first, dragging thumbnails around, but it gets fiddly fast. Picmal makes it one step.
Yes. Type the ranges you want, like 1-3,5,8- and Picmal gives you one PDF per range. The 8- shorthand means page 8 to the end, so you can pull out exactly the sections you need in a single pass.
