What is PDF Image Extractor?

PDF Image Extractor scans a PDF page by page and pulls out the raster images embedded in it — photos, scans, logos and other graphics — without touching the surrounding text or layout. It's useful for recovering the original pictures used in a document, checking what images a PDF actually contains, or reusing artwork from a file you no longer have the source images for.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. PDF Image Extractor scans and decodes your file entirely in your browser. It is never uploaded to our servers.

What kind of images does this extract?

It extracts raster images embedded in the PDF, such as photos, scans and logos. Very small images (under 8x8 pixels), which are usually design artifacts rather than real pictures, are skipped, along with clipping/stencil masks that aren't standalone images.

Why didn't any images show up?

If a PDF was created from vector graphics or text only, it may not contain any embedded raster images at all — there's nothing to extract in that case.

What format are extracted images saved as?

Every extracted image is saved as a PNG so quality and any transparency are preserved, regardless of the original embedded format.

Does this work with password-protected PDFs?

No. Password-protected or encrypted PDFs are not currently supported.
