Common
- Find duplicate images
  1. Image object to pixel(numpy array) for compare
  2. If step one true -> Get image file byte size for compare
  3. If step two true -> remove image file, limit count increment
  4. If limit == user-set limit number -> End all captures, convert captured images to PDFs
- Convert PDF
  1. PIL(RGB) object saving array[0] append array[1:]
Teardown only MacOS
