About:
PDF-Images is a command-line utility designed to extract images directly from PDF files without rendering the document. It efficiently decomposes the PDF structure to retrieve embedded image data, preserving original formats and resolutions. This tool is ideal for batch processing and automated workflows where quick access to raw visual assets is required.
Key Features:
  • Extracts embedded images from PDF files
  • Preserves original image formats (JPEG, PNG, etc.)
  • Command-line interface for automation
  • Batch processing capabilities
  • No external dependencies required
Use Cases:
  • Extracting illustrations and diagrams from technical documentation
  • Batch processing PDF reports to retrieve embedded charts and logos
  • Recovering images from archived PDF collections
Alternatives:
  • pdfimages – Part of poppler-utils; more widely available but may require additional dependencies
  • pdftoppm – Renders pages to images rather than extracting embedded assets
