What is Extract Images?
PDFStream extracts all embedded images from a PDF and makes them available for individual download — without needing to screenshot or manually crop.
The tool identifies images embedded in the PDF's resource dictionary and exports them in their original format where possible. Images are listed with their dimensions and can be downloaded individually or as a ZIP archive.
Use cases: recovering product photos embedded in a supplier's PDF catalog, extracting diagrams from a technical manual, pulling a logo or graphic from a branded document, or archiving images embedded in a PDF before reformatting the document.

Vector graphics are not images
Charts drawn as vectors are not embedded images; convert the page to PNG to capture them.
