Extract Images from PDF
PDF files can contain not just images but also complex clips and this fully automated example program allows you to extract each image and apply the clip associated with it. But how do you get the images from the PDF files complete with clipping?
An example of Clipped and Scaled images
With JPedal you can extract images from PDF. You can extract all clipped images from a PDF at the highest possible quality or generate copies in user configurable sizes.
The output on the left was obtained by instructing JPedal to create one image 142 pixels high, another at 213 pixels high and the final image unscaled. The number of images and sizes required are all user configurable.
