How to do it

  1. 1

    Add your file

    Add the PDF that has pictures inside it — a photo report, a catalogue, a scanned brochure, an article with figures.

  2. 2

    Set it up the way you want

    Choose whether an image repeated on many pages should come out once or every time. A letterhead logo is the usual reason to ask.

  3. 3

    Download the result

    Download the pictures. Each one comes out at the resolution it was stored at, not at the size it looked on the page.

Questions about Extract images from PDF

How is this different from PDF to PNG?
PDF to PNG renders the page: text, lines and pictures all become one flat image. This reaches inside the page and takes the pictures out as they were embedded. If you want the photograph, you want this; if you want a picture of the page, you want that.
Does the quality drop?
No. An embedded JPEG is copied out byte for byte, with no re-encoding, so it is the exact file the author put in. That is also why an image can come out larger and sharper than it appeared on the page — the page was showing it scaled down.
Why did I get the same logo forty times?
Because it is on forty pages and you asked for every occurrence. Turn on the option to take repeated images once and you get one copy. It is off by default because in a scanned document two pages can hold two different photographs that only look alike.
