In this guide, we will show you a nifty method through which you could create individual files using the Create PDF option in Quick Actions. The macOS beholds a slew of intriguing and useful features in its context menu. For example, you could rotate images, remove their background, convert it to any other format, or even create its PDF file. As far as the latter is concerned, you just need to select the desired number of images and then it will pack them into one PDF.
However, some users are of the opinion that it would have been much better if it gave them the option to create individual PDF files. Turns out that is very much a possibility, and that too without using any third-party app. We will only be using the Apple’a built-in Automator app to create individual files using the Create PDF option in Quick Actions. So without further ado, let’s get started.
