Question 1

Why are my extracted images blurry?

Accepted Answer

The default render resolution may be too low for your source PDF. Increase to 150 or 300 DPI for sharper output — this is especially important for text-heavy PDFs.

Question 2

Can I extract just one page from a PDF?

Accepted Answer

Yes — use the page range selector to specify a single page (e.g. 'pages 3-3'). The output ZIP will contain only that page.

Question 3

What's the difference between JPG and PNG output?

Accepted Answer

JPG is smaller and works well for photo-heavy PDFs. PNG is lossless and keeps text crisp at any zoom level. WebP usually splits the difference. Pick JPG for photographs, PNG for documents.

Question 4

Are scanned PDFs supported?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Whether your PDF is text-based or scanned (image-based), the tool renders each page as an image and extracts it. The output quality reflects the source — a low-resolution scan will produce low-resolution images.

Question 5

Is the PDF uploaded to your server?

Accepted Answer

No. The PDF is parsed and rendered locally in your browser using pdf.js. Your file never leaves your device.
