Embedded images vs. whole pages

A PDF page mixes text, drawn shapes, and embedded pictures. This tool pulls out only the embedded pictures, such as photos and scans. If a logo or chart was drawn with shapes rather than saved as a picture, it won’t appear here. To capture a whole page as an image, use PDF to JPG.

When one photo comes out in pieces

Some design programs slice a single photo into strips, or store its transparency separately. Check the preview gallery to make sure you’re getting the images you expect.

Frequently asked questions

Why wasn’t a logo or chart extracted from my PDF?

Logos and charts are often drawn with shapes rather than saved as pictures. Use PDF to JPG to capture them as an image.

What is the difference between Extract PDF Images and PDF to JPG?

Extract PDF Images saves the individual pictures stored inside the PDF. PDF to JPG takes a snapshot of each whole page.

Can I download all extracted images at once?

Yes. When more than one image is found, click Download ZIP to save them all.
