How this tool works
Extract Embedded Images: a practical guide
Inspects image drawing operations and exports the embedded raster resources as PNG. The files are image assets, not screenshots of whole pages.
Steps to use this tool
- Select a PDF containing bitmap images.
- Run Extract Images from PDF.
- Unzip and inspect the extracted image assets.
Tested example — 19 October 2026
The extracted fixture image is 80 by 60 pixels, matching the embedded bitmap rather than the page.
Selected sample: sample.pdf (2421 bytes, 2 pages).
Measured output: sample-images.zip — 385 bytes.
Test environment: Node + native canvas + actual site-ui.js form integration in LinkeDOM Representative sample; inspect your own output.
Check the result
Unzip the output and compare image dimensions with the embedded source asset. Use PDF to JPG if you wanted full-page screenshots instead.
Files and privacy
The public tool processes selected documents in your browser. It does not send document bytes to a conversion server. The page and its bundled libraries still download from this website. Keep the original, use an up-to-date browser and inspect your output before sharing it. See the privacy policy for hosting and support information.
If processing fails
A vector-only document or unsupported image representation may have no extractable bitmap. A clear no-images error is preferable to substituting whole-page renders.
