Pdfimages saves images from a Portable Document Format (PDF) file as Portable Pixmap (PPM), Portable Bitmap (PBM), or JPEG files.
Pdfimages reads the PDF file PDF-file, scans one or more pages, and writes one PPM, PBM, or JPEG file for each image, image-root-nnn.xxx, where nnn is the image number and xxx is the image type (.ppm, .pbm, .jpg).
Specifies the first page to scan.
Specifies the last page to scan.
Normally, all images are written as PBM (for monochrome images) or PPM (for non-monochrome images) files. With this option, images in DCT format are saved as JPEG files. All non-DCT images are saved in PBM/PPM format as usual.
Instead of writing the images, list the images along with various information for each image. Do not specify an image-root with this option.
The following information is listed for each image:
page the page number containing the image
num the image number
type the image type:
image - an opaque image
mask - a monochrome mask image
smask - a soft-mask image
stencil - a monochrome mask image used for painting a color or pattern
Note: Tranparency in images is represented in PDF using a separate image for the image and the mask/smask. The mask/smask used as part of a transparent image always immediately follows the image in the image list.
width image width (in pixels)
height image height (in pixels)
Note: the image width/height is the size of the embedded image, not the size the image will be rendered at.
color image color space:
gray - Gray
rgb - RGB
cmyk - CMYK
lab - L*a*b
icc - ICC Based
index - Indexed Color
sep - Separation
devn - DeviceN
comp number of color components
bpc bits per component
enc encoding:
image - raster image (may be Flate or LZW compressed but does not use an image encoding)
jpeg - Joint Photographic Experts Group
jp2 - JPEG2000
jbig2 - Joint Bi-Level Image Experts Group
ccitt - CCITT Group 3 or Group 4 Fax
interp "yes" if the interpolation is to be performed when scaling up the image
object ID
the image dictionary object ID (number and generation)
Specify the owner password for the PDF file. Providing this will bypass all security restrictions.
Specify the user password for the PDF file.
Include page numbers in output file names.
Don't print any messages or errors.
Print copyright and version information.
Print usage information. (-help and --help are equivalent.)
