Image Magick is there a better way to iterate over pdf pages (Convert PDF booklet to .jpg)

This is the code I've got and it works fine. I just don't believe it is the "best" way to do it.

<?
    $im = new imagick();
    $im->setResolution(10,10);
    $im->readimage('document.pdf');
    $pages = $im->getNumberImages();
    $im->clear();
    $im->destroy();

    for($i=0;$i<$pages;$i++) {
        $im = new imagick();
        $im->setResolution(100,100);
        $im->readimage('document.pdf['.$i.']');
        $im->setImageFormat('jpeg');
        $im->writeImage($i.'.jpg');
        $im->clear();
        $im->destroy();
    }
?>

Anyone knows how to do it the best way? Please show me how.

Hopefully this will help someone.

My solution is to use the method writeImages. Make sure you set the $adjoin flag to false to get seperate files.

$im = new imagick();
$im->setResolution(100,100);
$im->readimage('document.pdf');
$im->setImageFormat('jpeg');
$im->writeimages('document.jpg', false);
$im->clear();
$im->destroy();

It will result in document-0.jpg, document-1.jpg, document-3.jpg etc.
