About Extract images
Extract images pulls every picture out of a PDF at the size it was stored in the file, filtered by how big it is, and saves them as PNG or JPG.
Every picture the document holds is pulled out once, at the size it was stored — not a screenshot of the page, but the original embedded image, which is usually larger and always cleaner than anything you could crop off a rendered page.
The size filter is what makes the result usable. A PDF is full of tiny images that are not pictures at all: bullet glyphs, rules, background textures, the logo repeated in a footer sixty times. Over 64 px removes most of that. Over 400 px leaves you photographs and little else.
PNG rebuilds every picture losslessly and keeps transparency; JPG makes them smaller and cannot. The result says how many were found and what was skipped, so a run that misses something is visible rather than silent.
